So what do you do for work? “Hehe I just draw rectangles all day… *whispers* …to achieve user-focused wins that satisfy business objectives while working around difficult time and engineering constraints.” #designsky

My humble advice for design portfolios: 1. Keep it focused on your best work 2. Tell a compelling story from the original problem to the outcome 3. Be clear about what you contributed #designsky

First month’s thoughts of converting from Spotify to Apple Music: - Pro: Less poorly done AI content - Pro: Family bundle pricing - Pro: Artists paid more - Con: No scroll wheel for fast scroll - Con: Shuffle feels less real

My new pet peeve is already successful people writing children’s books. Their books make the bestseller lists due to clout and therefore we probably miss out on better stories.

I’m giving Apple Music a test drive this weekend since the whole product bundle is cheaper than Spotify… and it feels like the Spotify experience is worsening over time.
