"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.

Participating in the 2025 Open Science Retreat #osr2025ch. Great experience, diverse conversations and so (too) many interesting topics! Focussing on effective promoting / marketing of Open Science. #userresearch @digiresacademy
"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.

For the possibly vanishingly small number of people it might interest: Made a presentation on User Research and semantic vectors/word embeddings from AI, speculatively exploring possible applications: https://youtu.be/tPiv4LpZCvU?si=bSUDkOywd9GnXL2e
UX Design leadership has dropped the ball. Plot twist: so has everyone else's. There is no design strategy, because there is no strategy. Fortunately, we have the tools to make our own - here's how. #ux #uxdesign #userresearch #contentdesign

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

It’s great watching the advancement of AI take the jobs and roles of #ux and #ui and #graphicdesign and #userresearch and start pumping out the modern-day equivalent of Yahoo Web Templates from 20 years ago.
I just published my thoughts on using AI in user research and testing that might interest you if you work in digital. I've done hundreds of hours of user research over the years.

How AI Improves Design Team Workflows #ai #ux #ui #designthinking #uxtips #productdesign #userresearch https://www.uxpin.com/studio/blog/how-ai-improves-design-team-workflows/
#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.
