I'm a designer, artist, web developer, gamer, hockey fan, and basically loads of other nerdy things.

So @ExpanseOnPrime... When is season 5 coming? (aka: my favorite book)

Just finished season 4 today and I already have the itch for more. #screamingfirehawks

See this all the time. Metrics at the cost of UX. Save until after the task is completed at least.

I wonder if it is because good UX is harder to quantify as a good investment vs clicks on a pop up? 🤔

I visit an e-shop and start browsing to make a purchase. My PURCHASE is INTERRUPTED by a popup asking me to subscribe to their newsletter. What kind of moron thought interrupting customers WHILE THEY ARE BUYING STUFF would improve sales?!

[Jon M Christensen @jonmchristensen]

If I have to click though 5 separate prompts to actually read the content on your site, you're doing it wrong.

This is why people:
- use ad blockers
- steal your content
- use walled gardens

You're helping to make the web a worse place when you do this. #ux #Webdesign

I'm trying really hard not to watch the new season of @ExpanseOnPrime too fast. Waiting for so long, saving the show, gotta make it last a little.

Simple:
1. Start the day with coffee.
2. Eat a tasty lasagna.
3. Hydrate with beers during/after.

[The Expanse @ExpanseOnPrime]

You’ve got 2 days to prepare for the big premiere. What’s your binge kit must-have? We asked the cast for theirs.

Hap.. (unintelligible).. ving!

@Google there is a lot of your ADD with products and services I've put up with, but this one might be the last straw. https://t.co/f7K8ek9Diu

That service has been so nice on all my various gadgets, I'm truly angry now.

[Jon M Christensen @jonmchristensen]

@Tesla #Cybertruck's close cousin, apparently (boxy look, stainless steel). Which brings up some questions:
1. Can I get 1.21 gigawatts out of a super charger?
2. Is there be a flux capacitor option/package?
3. Will Doc and Marty go back in time to make it not look so ugly?

[Jon M Christensen @jonmchristensen]

Now I need to buy a headset.

Well played @valvesoftware

We're thrilled to announce Half-Life: Alyx, a new full-length entry in the Half-Life series, built by Valve for VR.

If you've heard about the Domino's web accessibility case but were confused about certain things, give this a read: https://t.co/tdsMXY4hxp

Curious if Gitlab is an option here. Or self hosted?

Ethics in tech is all over the place right now.

Had a random thought this morning about a new MCU movie for Daredevil where he would team up with Spider-man against Wilson Fisk. This is what I get for watching "Into the Spider-verse". But how cool would that be? #SaveDaredevil

[Jon M Christensen @jonmchristensen]

FIREWORKS!! #10upsummit

[Jon M Christensen @jonmchristensen]

Good morning #10upsummit

[Jon M Christensen @jonmchristensen]

Night time at the #10upsummit in Disney is awesome!

@NotJustHilary I know a few health professionals if you need help convincing her. 😉

[The Expanse @ExpanseOnPrime]
