The Politics of Design book proved to be a bit more challenging to acquire, Barnes&Nobles removed it from my order and sent the other two books. I'm trying to get the Politics from Amazon now, but the delivery span is 5 months. 😅

AI Pin by Humane was so hugely hyped but ended up a total flop.

What is the best platform for freelancers these days?

It seems that my dear MX Master 3 got sick of me and decided to break. 😞 Should I look for some new model or get the same one? It served me perfectly for the last 3 years.

"I have a really loose interpretation of work, because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you don't always want to do."

Andy Warhol

Anything design-related I shouldn't miss in Dusseldorf?

Took me a few days, but I think I got the optimum preset for my Figma Creator Micro, let's see if I change something again. 😅

Many Turkish portals went all in yesterday, and tagged all their articles with #Config2024, driving Figma marketing teams crazy. Hilarious.

Andy Warhol

"I love uniforms! Because if there's nothing there, clothes are certainly not going to make the man. It's better to always wear the same thing and know that people are liking you for the real you and not the you your clothes make."

Andy Warhol

The pile of the “acquired, will read when I grab a chance” design books is growing.

Designers applauding someone showing them a text prompt not to have to design anymore is peak digital design for me.

When it comes to Apple Intelligence, I expect Siri to actually call whomever I told her to call instead of replying "Good afternoon".

Hey all. A senior product designer and an accessibility consultant here. Based in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina and looking forward to meeting you all.
