The mistakes you're most worried about are unlikely to be the ones you make. You'll err on the opposite end instead.

For example, if you're incredibly worried about offending people, you'll rarely do that, but you'll probably avoid giving critical, honest feedback.

How motherhood makes me a better person and a designer? Here is why:

On user feedback -

If you asked me how to make a better burger, I'd say add cheese.

If you asked me what I liked to eat, I would not say cheeseburger.

Also it was transparent with silver glitter 😭 How weird is it that we can "miss" physical objects like this??

[Rosie Raizen @rosieraizen]

Was just struck by a huge wave of #nostalgia for my TI-86 while analyzing user survey results. Anyone else miss the feel of those buttons? #Designer #UserResearch #UserExperience #Analog

Highlight #2: When you start a project, always ask "What biases am *I* bringing into the room?"

Highlight #1: Inclusion so often means including *you* in *our whiteness.*

Went to a ballot explainer from @techequity which was really informative and wonderful. And every time someone said "parcel tax" I kept hearing "parseltongue... tax" and I really wondered why we're not treating parseltongues as equal citizens. #millenial #vote #equalrights

@harrislapiroff I love noticing my cognitive errors where I shorthand commands like "Put trash you are holding in your right hand into the trash bin" to "Put object in hand into other open object" and that results in throwing silverware/phone/etc in the trash 😅

2nd order harms emerge as "digital fallout" from 1st order…

🤯Info Overload -> Short Attn Spans
🤳Addictive Use -> Isolation
🤩Mass Narcissism -> Teen Depression
🛸Fake News -> Breakdown of Sensemaking
🤬Polarization -> Extremism & Distrust
🤖DeepFakes -> Post-Truth World

[Tristan Harris @tristanharris]

Tech's most SERIOUS harms occur from undermining human weaknesses…

Cognitive Limits -> 🤯Information Overload
Dopamine -> 🤳Addictive Use
Social validation -> 🤩Mass Narcissism
Confirmation Bias -> 🛸Fake News
Outrage -> 🤬Polarization
Foundations of Trust -> 🤖Bots, DeepFakes

The major problem in technology isn't privacy, it's misalignment with our innate psychological vulnerabilities:

As E.O. Wilson said, "The problem of humanity is… We have paleolithic emotions; medieval institutions; and god-like technology."

[Rosie Raizen @rosieraizen]

@harrislapiroff yeah I guess the bar is pretty low in the realm of "nicest" and "internet"
