His mapping of the structure of our current governmental system was eye opening to me. I liked the explanation of the prescriptive (planned/written) vs. the descriptive (actual/unwritten) constitution. I also liked the idea that organizations that aren't officially part of the government are effectively part of it without having any accountability.
Sketch, Figma, and XD all make it quick to do the most basic prototyping: click hot spot to go to a different screen. They are much more focused on visual design than prototyping.
I wouldn't say I recommend trying this, but it takes time to find people you are actually interested in on Twitter.
All the obvious "blue check-mark" people have zero insight at best. There is a whole weird world of small follower count people on there. Small communities. People with unique ideas. People that will actually respond to replies.
Again, I don't think it an addiction you should necessarily cultivate, but there is value to be had.
I genuinely enjoyed your story about your nephew, but it's bit like telling an anecdote about an incompetent engineer and then saying there isn't a large number of engineers that are good at solving problems.
I've spent a lot of time in big US cities and more rural parts of the country.
I had culture shock going to stores in the rural areas, because the friendly customer service attitude appeared to be much less fake. People didn't feel as rushed. They took a little extra time to have genuine communication. It drove me crazy, because I was accustomed to the efficiency of city retail, but I've come to appreciate it.
My first Agile project was in 2007. It was fun and collaborative. We were all reading books/articles and experimenting together. It’s never been like that again. It worked kind of as intended on one project where we all had to be in the same room all day. Everyone seemed to be excited for it to end, though.
That doesn't mean that works for them. I hope the vast majority of purchases of Dove, Breyers, Klondike, Lipton, Vaseline, etc. can't be connected to social media impressions.
I would bet that marketing departments for companies like Unilever have a hard time showing ROI on Facebook advertising. Why not get some marketing attention for cutting your spend?
- Each company has unique glass.
- Each company has unique physical control schemes and software UX.
- Color profiles allow you to apply the color science to RAW files. Some apps will automatically apply the color profile you select while shooting when you are processing later.
Are there powerful prototyping plugins for Figma? I'd love it if the answer is yes.
Axure is horrible for wireframing and a non-starter for visual design, but it has the most powerful prototyping features I've seen by a long shot. Framer is straight up writing React code, so I don't count that as an option for the vast majority of designers.

He's certainly not for everyone, but the most common criticisms of him I see are usually pull quotes taken from Wikipedia.
