two of the highest impact things I’ve contributed took about 1 month each
the idea that true impact can’t happen until 2+ years is part of an overall corporate mind virus that’s infected tech
@PouyanSol
Ah, yea - England is world renowned for their healthy beer and chips diet program. Anyways, Manhattan and SF have lower obesity rates than London so I don’t think that’s it.

@midjourney
bad look - the language written by this employee sounds like an obvious power trip. not someone that should be involved in a customer-facing role
@awilkinson
This sounds like it’d lead to a grim recruiting landscape. Nobody gets a chance to grow. Everyone suffers from a chicken and egg problem. And companies have a very small talent pool.
@neilhimself
huge fan of your work and masterclass course. We’d love to pitch you on writing something of any length to bring the fantasy world of

Btw... if you're working on something for

these 16 order icons I made for

Hit me up if you'd like some guidance on incorporating them
I’m tired of having comments fragmented across G-Suite, Dropbox Paper, Figma, etc.
I want one app / tool that can overlay the conversation across all of these and supports annotation and access to as much context as possible.
What’s possible? What’s the closest available today?
For years I've read articles claiming design is more important than ever in startups.
But my observation is it's still usually the last product role that's hired for with the worst equity comp.
Founders want PDs to solve huge problems beyond UI but don't set us up to do it.

Thought others might be interested in a more direct comparison to WalMart:
Amazon (2017 numbers)
$177.86 billion revenue / 566,000 employees = $314,240 revenue/employee
$3.033 billion profit / 566,000 employees = $5,358 profit/employee

To be honest, when companies say it will take 2+ years before someone has impact, it betrays an inability to leverage high performance team members and that’s exactly the kind of thing that makes some people leave so I guess it’s optimizing for the right fit either way
When the pandemic first hit, I started making - virtual spaces you could join with just a link.
My favorite space to this day is the “digital park”
Going to share a video soon 🤙
Yesterday, as I downed a bit of coffee, I questioned whether this project should even be released.
The caffeine finally motivated me to press the button and see where it goes.
Today it's on the front page of Opensea.
Next week

What better time to talk about creating the next Star Wars than on May the 4th?
@TEDchris
Think you’re wrong on this one - this comes across as a bloated product that’s suffocating what made it grow in the first place
Don’t think the missing piece was the ability to buy cakes
While it's far less "intelligent", the UX of on-device vision vs GPT Vision, LLaVa, etc is still really great if your use case fits
Fast: a few milliseconds vs several seconds or even a minute you'll wait for a vision model
Reliable: works in airplane mode
And it's free...
Nobody actually cares much about years of experience.
In many disciplines the important shifts are:
1st: you can execute & take feedback well
2nd: you continuously bring your own insights, systems, process, knowledge, etc to your work
3rd: you can help others do the above
Artists, designers, writers, & developers exploring Web3 opps...

This form adds to a shared list 🤝
If you’re hiring, here’s a list of 87 folks looking to join startups (mostly but not entirely design)
There’s also a private list with more folks - send me a DM for access to that
Probably bad timing but I'm working on a quiz for designers that uses open-ended questions that touch on accessibility, visual design, typography, color, CSS, interface critique, and interpreting data.
Only takes 15-20 mins. Let me know if you'd like to try an early version.
@kathleen_warner
This is a long shot but might actually be addressable in a current project.
@jsong
- maybe this could be added to one of the driver education lesson pages on starting a trip? I’ve heard this issue brought up a lot.
@micsolana
lol where are you at??? besides a gelato place that had like 4000sq ft for no reason and some fairfax alibaba resellers everything is full near me
