What is success in team communication?

3 things:

1) Fidelity: how much of what you wanted to express gets into the mind of the listener

2) Efficiency: how much time did it take

3) Actionability: how clear is it what should be done as a result

Just got some amazing advice from an old colleague I hadn't seen in 5+ years.

When choosing a company to be a part of, consider the people first and foremost. I cannot stress this enough.

Those colleagues will one day make up your network and have a huge impact on your future.

3) You believe you have more to lose from not creating than creating something bad

I’m hiring a Jr. Designer.

- There are no design exercises.
- There are no presentations in front of 40 people, 38 of whom don’t understand design.
- There are no trick questions.

Just a process with people you may work with. That’s all.

Microsoft Teams was put on this earth to remind us about the importance of good UX.

If you surround yourself with great people, you're going to get better faster.

But the price you pay is the constant feeling of inadequacy.

@AppleSupport I’m facing issue with my iPhone7. Ive deleted almost 20 apps, cleared cache, reset settings, emptied my photo gallery, and it still keeps saying no space. None of the apps remaining on my phone seem to work properly. Max space is occupied by Other. Please help.
