TIL you can do isometric in figma without any plugin, like in 2 steps?? it blows my mind that i still don't understand how it works https://medium.com/design-bootcamp/isometric-designing-in-figma-32c324472a1a

is x YoE some sentence i need to serve to work at cool places

Worklingo: feel free to do = do exactly as I told you to

Maybe because I am now so painful at working on something I don’t like I felt extra happiness helping someone find a job that really resonated with their background and interests, so happy

is it still my value if i have barely embodied the value yet

radio group/single select is one of those things that are way too complicated to prototype in figma than in code

the smiley face on the delivery bag makes me happy

i figured out a quick hack to get touch cursor in figma prototype without device frame: pop open the inspector, find the parent <div> of the main <canvas>, and change the class name from “cursor-default” to “cursor-touch”

want to work at a place that affords and rewards care

noticed that i tend to put more content into a slide when i make slides with figma vs with keynote. wondering how much of that is due to figma’s inability to easily rearrange slides or just me being so comfortable in figma that the focus on design trumps storytelling

TIL you can fake a path animation (i.e. shape moving along an arc instead of a straight line) with smart animate by nesting the shape in a frame and rotating the frame

ramp has turned the SF caltrain station into ketchup and mustard lol real aggressive campaign

having an unusual name has served me well charlsy.cv 😎

what if there are link previews in figma? im thinking specifically about pasting in a figma link to another file/page and it gets formatted nicely as a block (think bookmark in notion) that shows the cover & last update time (and maybe also the owner)

hi i want to file a complaint that one hour was stolen from my birthday

just found out this today, life saver! v useful for prototyping typing / text streaming effect

realized i’ve read and written very little recently and that’s probably what makes me feel unrooted

Is there an “Obsidian for pdf/epub”? doc/book reader or library manager based on local files not proprietary format

i don’t want to make a small part of a big thing, i just want to make a big part of a small thing

an interesting find at the bottom of the shelf during a weekend trip to the bookstore

My accounting app categorized Safeway as transportation LOL

i thought component property has been around forever while absolute positioning and select matching layers are more recent addition but turned out they came out roughly the same time ~2 years ago...🫨

wrote an essay about creator tools and media environments! https://connie.surf/declaration.html

why modern design job entails so little of design

i am going to tell a joke about designer wearing black and how everyone has to do the same at my funeral

displays that are shared reality instead of isolated realities

“think of the impact you could make” lol

nobody:
apple: *adds blur to every transition*

when people post job description with a notion page i always thought it’s notion hiring
