I work in a highly competitive industry, and often get this question at networking events and conferences from people in my industry. I like to see them succeed, so I give them this advice: don't worry about your…
sigh yet another failure of web standards and browsers to address the most basic requirements of designers. HTML was originally intended for academics creating standardized documents, and more than 20 year later we're…
That was agonizing to watch. He spends way too much time on tiny details and adjustments before even knowing if the basic layout is going to work.
Going off this 'starter guide', a Product Guy is basically taking your most junior, inexperienced designer/developer and putting them in charge?
Agreed, but Carter was the first neoliberal president.
For every hooligan on the street, there are 10 friends and family at home, but shrugging their shoulders at the violence because they have no stake in society. "Let them burn it down, why should I care?" The hooligans…
But why is a reminder is needed? If you exclude computer science, women received the majority of bachelor's degrees in science since the late 80s. It was 60% in 2008 and probably even higher today.
You work 8 hours a day, then come home and study for 8 hours, which is really just more work for your employer. Life-long education is starting to sound like a prescription for non-stop labor.
All true. Today's middle class are forced to act like newly-arrived immigrants, turning back the clock on decades of progress and rising living standards.

Could you explain the difference between "understands design" and being a designer?
As a designer, I'm not very concerned about spec work. The wide availability of cheap desktop publishing software could have made design as a profession vanish because it gave people the ability to do it themselves. But…
It sounds like you're talking about usefulness, not usability. In HCI/UX circles, the classic catchphrase is "useful, usable, desirable."
It's OK as a logo, except for the inconsistent light source on the shadows. As a toolbar icon, it seems like they decided to redesign it so that it violates every OS icon guideline in existence, except on Windows Phone…
"Many designers or agencies might scoff at the notion of a “non-designer” being able to learn and understand the principles to help them arrive at a design." They would, except that most of them were once non-designers…
This is a good example of how A/B testing the wrong things can kill your product.
I write all my PDFs directly in PostScript instead of using InDesign or Illustrator, because that way it's breathing instead of catatonic or whatever.
A lot of these salaries are in the Corrections department. The US didn't get to be the world's #1 jailer for free, guys!
Evidence that these failures are due to Apple's blindspot of being too controlling?

Right, but why do you even need a proxy, why isn't it enough to just have money and power? It's because other people need to know.
Actually, I think status markers created by the government would be far, far more appealing to the wealthy. It's like Hegel's master-slave dialectic - a master doesn't feel like a real master because he knows all the…
