Comparing your work or abilities to someone else's can be an unproductive and self-destructive activity. Yet we compare ourselves all the time.

On learned helplessness - Tanner Christensen's blog

Rapid concepts explored for the Projector app icon, which led to the final idea in the bottom-right corner. Final icon created directly in Spline.

Overview customization in Center Meditation Timer.

In earlier user research I learned many people value different things in their mindfulness practice. For some, they want to track streaks. For others, awareness of their practice history matters most.

What do you do on the days where things start out ok, then immediately go to bad in the morning and you have a lot to do but also back to back meetings and all you really want to do is work on cool things alongside other people that want the same?

Designing in Figma on a room-sized screen (or multiple room-sized screens) while lounging on the sofa in my living room late at night is incredibly fun (and useful). Loving the Meta Quest 3.

Thanks to Do Book Co. I’ve become one of those “guy who carries a book in his back pocket” kind of guy.

The algorithms hate me here it seems, hah! I’m going to move elsewhere. Find me on LinkedIn and Threads!

The value of user input is in what it gives you as directional guidance for further discovery.

All I want to be is someone that makes new things and thinks about them. John Maeda

Would something like this menu bar app for your design system be useful to anyone? 🤔

This book never leaves my desk. It’s a fantastic go-to for impromptu re-energization of my design chakra.

My favorite thing about Xcode 15.0 beta 3 is how it crashes every single time I create a new file.

Figma, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

The world is full of talented and hungry designers. It can be disheartening to see other's immaculate work and compare it to your own. Take heart! Remember the face of something is never the whole thing. https://www.tannerchristensen.com/blog/a-better-way-to-compare-yourself

Working from a hospital all day today (not for me) and really wishing I had brought my Vision Pro. Can’t wait for the launch of the Waterfield shield case so I can lug the headset everywhere.

Snaplight, 2015. 1 weekend from idea to build. 400,000 downloads.

Sometimes I just don't want to see content from someone on Posts. Any chance we can get a mute feature (rather than full block) @andy ?

Lil refresh to the portfolio website this morning.

Starfield and RealityKit documentation are keeping me alive. (A phrase anyone in the 90s would attribute to Star Trek.)

What if documenting your work process was effortless?

I'm working on a (paid) app that auto-logs your workday into a "work journal", making things like reviews, status updates, and portfolio case studies a breeze. Wondering if I should scrap the idea or press on.

Fun lil' project for Vision Pro and art lovers.

The thing about learned helplessness is that it can feel like "the world is against you", when it's really "you against you."

It's all psychology and how we think—and the actions we do or do not take as a result of our thoughts.

Why do you think Apple doesn’t provide 3D video support for things like app previews or 3D movie trailers?

I often miss working at (2015) Facebook. All my heroes were there (Andy included!).
