Thank you Murphy 😍

It pains me a lot to see amazing people like you relying on Substack, wish more of them would have your courage and ethics to lose some traction in a platform change 🤘

Blog • Murphy Trueman Writing about design systems as infrastructure, AI tooling, and component architecture. Practical and opinionated, for designers and engineers who build at scale.

Last week I asked @murphytrueman.com if she’d be open to consider moving her design systems articles off substack.
Not only was she open to it, but she already relaunched her blog on ghost!

Thank you for being open to feedback and actually caring!

Go read her excellent articles!

AI companies are throwing a lot of money into convincing everyone their stuff is awesome...

my ideal future is not one where tech makes everyone go faster but one where everyone has the freedom to slow down

Screenshot of my computer screen with the CozyPet Mac app store page open and a little red fox pixel mascot running at the bottom right of the desktop.

Just bought a 3$ Mac app that has been on my wishlist for a while and finally came out 😍

It's cute, it's whimsical, it's pixel art, and it has 0 impact on my productivity 😂

But it makes me smile 😊

Screenshot of a Google search query that only returns Design System jobs in the Swedish-based LinkedIn jobs directory.

Let's face it, LinkedIn's job search feature is not the best 😅

Try going to Google Search instead and typing:

site:se.linkedin.com/jobs "Design System"

This gives me results only in Sweden, and where the words "Design System" are used sequentially.

Good hunt!

Today, I realized I've never visited ChatGPT's site at all 🤣

Showing 2 user interface elements composed of a rounded container with a label and value, showing how the use of a colon symbol is not necessary for affordance and waters down the visual design.

Want to upgrade your visual design chops almost instantly?

Stop using colons to separate labels from values.

Better ways to do it:

- Color and lightness.
- Font weight and size.
- Wrapping both in an element.
- Law of proximity
