For my work @ Medium.com, I'm studying why designers/UXRs write on the internet. If you blog or publish a newsletter, I'd love to learn more via this very short survey (or send me a DM if you prefer!): medium.typeform.com/to/cKg2sFIv?...

I'd love for #Apple to make their ports easier to find. When facing the screen, it's nearly impossible to guess where the ports are. Since these speaker grills are mostly decorative, why not replace a few holes to indicate where to connect their cables? #designsky

You can’t afford reaching product market fit in 10 years. Investors and employees want to see early proof that you’re onto something and not just building a cash-burning factory.

Design’s greatest impact isn't beautiful UIs. Craft has value but it’s small compared to discovering and framing problems. I have yet to find a better way to discover valuable problems than speaking with people. ✱ What’s the problem? ✱ Why is it a problem? ✱ What are you doing about it today?

The more you know your users, the more you’ll develop your sensitivity around their needs. This will give you the confidence to create designs that stray away from the average middle and towards the righteous lane. #designsky #buildinpublic

Here's a relief map of South America I find really interesting. The Andes is the longest continental mountain range in the world, 8,900 km (5,530 mi) long, with an average elevation of 4,000 m (13,123 ft). The Amazonian basin has an average elevation of 100 m (329 ft). A land of contrasts!

#UX research is one of the most important inputs in deciding what to build. If you don't know what your customers or audience are willing to pay for, you're best case missing out on business opportunities, worse case burning cash building stuff people don't find important.

Spent way too long trying to set up a custom domain for @beehiiv.com — it's incredibly frustrating. Couldn't figure it out even with ChatGPT 4o Gave up and disconnected the custom domain. Now my account is useless because it keeps pointing to the custom domain instead of beehiiv's #buildinpublic

I tried Astro. It's great but for a newsletter it's too much work and maintenance. So I began to compare newsletters options... 👇 #buildinpublic

We all know what seams look like in the physical world. The seams that run through the legs of your jeans. In software, they are the bugs and weird UX issues that are common in software. They are part of how the product was built. Have you ever used a truly seamless product? #design #ux

As a designer who codes for fun, I greatly appreciate how Warp always explains what each git command does and the logic behind the suggested actions.

Deep domain knowledge it’s hard to create. Specialized designers do really well because they become familiar with the common challenges of certain industries. This is especially true in technical fields. If there's a field that interests you, double down on that and you'll do really well.

Kit (ConvertKit) has subtle yet effective way for people to discover their ⌘+K search menu. It's hard to make these menus discoverable and they often remains hidden features reserved for the more tech-savvy users. This is genius. Mind if I borrow it? #ux #design #discoverability

Specs! Consistent target sizes can do wonders for the usability of your product. In case of doubt, bigger is better, especially on mobile. #designsky #buildinpublic #ux&uisky

We’re surrounded by an ocean of vanilla ice cream, the most basic and undifferentiated flavor. Lots of products today use the same palettes, same fonts, and same style.

Go-to-market is 50% of the equation. Your great product is useless if nobody knows it exists.

Building the right product fast is less about building and more about making the right decisions.
