Hello new followers 👋👋👋
I tweet about design systems and tooling, new media, cities, and social justice with varying levels of sincerity
My ""day job"" is on the design systems team at Uber
I am also not a penguin :)

the year is 2016. you just matched with a product designer at Facebook. y'all are meeting at a local natives concert, and afterwards you're gonna cuddle on his mattress without a bedframe. life is good

taking a cursory glance at linkedin, the team who developed this iowa caucus app is a CTO, a PM, a designer, two junior web devs, and a backend INTERN. this is who i'd hire for a dog-walking app not to like, uphold democracy or anything lol

sf has some of the most entitled residents on the planet.

today I came to the realization that....this year.....is the golden year for designers who code.
people who know how to write software to augment the creative process and/or to create art: now is your time to shine
i've spent my very short career yearning for this moment

good morning.
here are my personal thoughts on 👁️👄👁️, and where we go from here.
but first, I'd like to recommend five excellent causes. three are local to the Bay Area, and the other two are in Detroit

just about every junior WOC in tech i've met suffers from crippling imposter syndrome
if you work closely with them and they're not vocal about it to you, rethink your actions
please remember to give them their flowers, i promise it will pay off tenfold

- your zorb will show up on as your default avatar, even if you don't own a zorb NFT.
@ourZORA
aggregates on chain activity, and it's a simple way to provide a face to many wallets
- intent is to open source the zorb components & make the viewer super sick

i wouldn't be surprised if FB justified the new instagram update internally by making the two apps "share a common navigational hierarchy and visual language"
problem is, the last thing any IG user wants is for their app to look and feel "more like Facebook"

while im being absolutely fucking unhinged on here i feel like i'm 90% of the engineer I can be (which is honestly a really low ceiling tbh) and like 30% of the designer I can be. it's really hard to find people who understand and encourage me to grow a hybrid skillset

brockhampton. you invented brockhampton
Concept: a friend office.
Get group of friends who all have remote jobs. Move somewhere nice and inexpensive.
Rent a cheap, convenient office space together. Work at different companies but together.
Perks of social interaction, hanging with friends, but cheaper!

editions is out, here are some microconcepts that died on the cutting board.
Prototypes and explorations are meant to be just that—to test a hypothesis then throw away. The learnings from each creation help inform the direction of the final product.

social media becomes uninteresting when the pressure to maintain a facade to an audience > the frontier of self-discovery
this is also why FB/IG ruins everything they touch

the nft bubble collapses as soon as its "cool factor" runs out
connecting w/ audience = cool
supporting your friends & talented creators = cool
promoting self-expression = cool
naked cash grab = not cool
speculative investment = not cool
locking regular people out = not cool
