Pretend UX Designer. Perpetual insomniac. Perennial and insufferable perfectionist. Detests the mundane. Wary of people. Views are his own 🌈🐻

CSS magic: now you can animate height from 0 to auto via `calc-size(auto)`

Say goodbye to JS Calculate Height!

Combined with <details name="">, a nearly perfect and exclusive Accordion component can now be implemented.

Hashtags are an incredibly useful #SocialMedia tool; except if they aren't used in the right way.

Screen reader software needs to identify individual words to be read aloud, or it will assume it's one long word.

That's why you should use PascalCase: #DigitalAccessibilityMatters

@karenvogtmusic The one time I get to listen to music and completely chill out is on the train to and from work. Sometimes I listen to music and hope that the landscape outside the windows synchronises with it, like the Michel Gondry Star Guitar video for the Chemical Brothers.

@clownworld This is the road to ruin. You see shit like this on Deadly Women episodes before they go on a stalking or murdering spree.

What ever happened to commitment, fidelity and being with someone you love?

Being a developer before becoming a UX designer certainly helps with the concept of ‘considerate design’, where any UI element can be coded by devs in HTML/CSS with relative ease.

A friend asked ChatGPT to write a story about my love for Ainsley Harriott and the outcome is like a script for the best, most uplifting film ever.

I always get asked 'what are the recommended number of users to participate in a usability study', and respond with 'around five' to uncover common UX issues with an interface.

5 users are not enough to be able to uncover the quirkier UX problems.
