"I have taste and you don't" is a great way to never get anybody to agree with you. So is "your solution is not the way I would have done it."

The only way to get off doing 12-hour shifts at the feature factory is to defy its logic.

"Build-measure-learn" - the premise of Big Tech development teams - is an ideology of waste. In reality it's "build, build, build" and all the stuff after that is an afterthought.

This week's issue covers UX designers who are finding ways to start with "learn" instead of starting with waste.

I'm looking for a new design role!

My work friends (I’d like to believe) would say I’m helpful and smart. That I care about the people using what I design. Plus, I’m good at troubleshooting tricky group dynamics. To summarize: I’m fun to work with!

If you know anyone looking for a senior/staff/principle product designer, tell them to check out my BRAND NEW website and send me a message.

Thanks a million ✊

#UXDesign is in disarray. The idea of design-for-use has been replaced with design-for-sales, and its incentives (make more features so that you have more shit to sell) don't align with user-centered work and #UserResearch.

In this issue, I investigate the ground-level view of how this happened and how to stop it.

Say it with me: a #UserResearch question is NOT the same thing as an interview question. When you want to find out if users will like your product, you cannot simply ask people "would you use this product" and then write down whether they said Yes or No.
