@Pinsky @imarwant This type of AI would be great in adobe software. Like a more advanced automation channel. Some sort of pre-flight check in INDD, finds and opens a linked image in PS and convert to CMYK, a way to more quickly apply para and char. styles. The tedious stuff, just some ideas.

@NoContextHumans Filipino breakfast all the way. Gotta have the rice.

@moonmaara Yes! I had 2 great literature teachers growing up and one was my dad. The first teacher guided us through the text and she opened a whole new world to reading. It really makes a world of difference. It moves reading from enjoyment to enrichment.

@paulnovosad My favorite books in high school were all written pre-1920. Brontë, Dickens, Dumas, they can all be accessible. When talking to peers, it seems the issue is more how reading is taught than the books themselves.

@Culture_Crit Not a fan of minimalism in this space, but overall it feels like she has a new life and future and isn’t just a preserved relic of the past.

@liamsims Light is an important part of gothic architecture, so this is probably closer to the design intention. Light was a big part of creating a space separate from the everyday and instead allowed one to wonder at the divine and unknown.

THE PATH

- Find out what you love doing
- Get good
- Find the people who need you
- Charge enough that you can be honest, effective, and generous
- Work hard, don’t be a jerk
- Help others
- Stick around: it won’t be easy but if you don’t quit, you'll find the wind at your back

@WiLSONSACCOUNT @johnbarker @flyosity @UMAD Not a parent here, single adult male, and I frequently open the app to reminisce. I’ve made it an active part of my mindfulness routine

@BrettGemas The worst part isn’t even that the powers that be chose the safe and boring option, it’s that designers than get blamed for it. Anytime I see backlash on a bad logo or design, I say a little prayer for the design team. 🙏

@Pinsky I use Photoshop/Illustrator/InDesign nearly everyday, but have used the whole suite professionally. Would love to chat if you’re still looking for people!
