One of these days I’ll post design stuff on here.

once again i have no idea what i am doing

Don't let the decisions of companies, whether good or bad, define who you are and your craft. The moment you stop attaching your talents and craft to a company or job, the sooner you realize that nobody can *ever* take that away from you. You will always be in control, I promise.

Long shot but can anyone get me a referral at IBM Austin?

Emailed a possible early customer asking to do a call to get some feedback – they emailed back in less than 5 minutes. Good vibes, good momentum.

cookies and cream Oreos make me mad, what are we doing here. You're telling me these are Oreo flavored Oreos?

I didn't know I could get so fangirly over a pen company but here we are.

"Should designers code" has transformed into "should designers be entrepreneurs"

We need more communities, not tools. There are so many new tools for designers but so few communities. Tools make our job easier. Communities make us better designers.

Woooo house renovation. Unfortunately had a problem where the floor was sinking. Step 1 rip out all of the existing floors.

Give your friends the courage to share their wildest creative endeavors, because that shit is scary.

Ok I understand the hype around The Bear. Just finished S1.

New person rule: no AI doomscrolling (particularly after 8pm)

Thinking about adding a Work in Progress page to my portfolio site. Small things, unused things, etc. The type of things that I would have uploaded to Dribbble ca 2018. Anyone done this?

I call myself a generalist with a rabbit hole disorder

Working on a little something with a friend. He asked me to get everything out of my head for him. I wrote out a long-term vision/dream document for this passion project. Giving myself permission to dream without judgement felt really nice. Just honest, sincere thoughts.

Made a plugin that allows you to apply popular generative art techniques directly to your designs in Figma with just a few clicks.

I hope you will find it useful!

Every time I fly I make a point of drinking as much water as possible and yet I always end up dehydrated

I have a series of screens I want to prototype and test. But converting them to fully fleshed out prototype screens in Figma is such a PITA. This is what I want Figma AI to help with. Generate variants of a component, link them together for protoyping, add screen variants, etc.

Looking at YC S24 launches and this one caught my eye. Surely there's gotta be something more to this than just... an electronics suggestion engine? Am I missing something?

my config fomo has suddenly disappeared – looks like driving to spend time with family today was actually a good decision

another one of those days where it feels like I have no idea what I'm doing

Already gone through half of my emotional support ice cream for this week. Maybe I should just save the rest of it

New life goal: find something to be a passionate about as Linus is about the Great Pumpkin

Kicked off Launch Club first sprint with @robertf @chow @krystalskafe @adam.b good vibes…great ideas…small steps.

I recently installed a reddit blocker extension. And after trying to go there for the 20th time today and realizing I already had 3 tabs open that all said the same thing "you can't go here" (insert Nedry gif here) I'm realizing I may have a problem.

Hey @taurean had a cool idea to let you use your [username].posts.cv as your Bluesky handle so that it's easier to find each other there. We just added a setting on Posts web under account settings.

I love it when a product brief includes "Product 2.0" as one of the diagrams.

My wife got us an intro to ceramics (wheel) class for christmas and tonight was week 2. Man I love ceramics. I am getting quite adequate at making a cylinder. I love the process, the methods, and the IRL craftsmanship. And we get to support a local small business. Win win win

Launch Club's first sprint kicked off yesterday and very happy to have met @gee_lingam  @chow @krystalskafe and @adam.b – so many interesting and cool projects. Great energy. Reminds me of being in clubs at school.

Deleted all my news apps until at least the end of next week. Too much doomscrolling.

we are always afraid to start something that we want to make very good true and serious

wait now where am I gonna waste time when I should be working
