I believe the big bang happens repeatedly, like a heartbeat. I'm another one of those bass-playing (https://nathanielflick.bandcamp.com/album/dusk) UX Engineers (nathanielflick.com) who believes in accessibility and inclusion for all.

Like many projects the government commissions on foregone conclusions.

Just got my Covid vax daughter caught it and I’d dearly love to avoid it …

And the cost was well worth it.

Thank you so much for taking this on in such a real way.

Totally agree. And I’m really sick of people saying the response was bad for the economy. Of course it was everything had a cost…

New episode of The UX Consultants Lounge πŸŽ™οΈ

@jeffgothelf.bsky.social shared something in this conversation that really stuck with me:

Even after 10+ years of consulting, every December he thinks β€œthis is it… I’m going to have to get a job.”

Consulting is an emotional rollercoaster for all of us. 🎒

How much money and time was spent figuring that one out?!

If you would like a distraction how about checking out my latest album, "Dusk"? nathanielflick.bandcamp.com/album/dusk

That’s like making the fox and the hen the same animal

Antonelli came back from a slip in a turn to number 2 behind Russell. Toto looked pleased. 😁

I've been waiting for Figma Slots for years! No more creating placeholder components with complicated visibility Boolean properties for my design systems. This is so huge for design workflows.

My son has been playing Hollow Knight for I'd say years now, and I just looked up what it's about and it's very fitting for our times.

Do away with borders and encourage sharing and guess what, things will get better.

Trouble is everyone's scared of everyone else getting lazy in that scenario.

Yes that sounds very familiar!

I even count the number of times I do things to be consistent. No wonder things can take me longer!

Oof this resonates. I have processes so I don’t forget stuff. Down to only putting my things in my backpack and nowhere else.

I love old amplifiers and receivers too; give me those big metal dials and switches any day.

Yeah I'm not at all keen to have more genetically modified mass produced food from the States.

She was confronted directly about it in a senate hearing and did not deny it, only that it wasn’t a conflict of interest. What a joke.
