Brian Behrend’s microblog
Turned out to be pretty entry level book. Maeda spends the majority of the book’s 200 pages explaining the basics and extolling the value of UX research, product design, agile delivery, and iterative development and comparatively little on the actual premise of the book.

New project starting soon. Might actually have to DESIGN things for first time since like 2018.
Related… what is a “figma”? Is it some sort of crypto thing?
Working from Willow Bend Mall where two thirds of things are boarded up or padlocked has similar vibes to going into office. (But with better music and worse wifi.)
Employee recognition and rewards platforms are a scam so they can give you 100 “points” instead of fair compensation and proper recognition. 100 points is worth literally one US dollar.
I am a little over 24 hours from being able to punt the client MacBook that is constantly a baffling and frustrating complete disaster to use into the FRIGGIN’ SEA.
(I am an approximately 6 hours from anything resembling a sea, the commute will be worth it.)
Ready and waiting. Now have to work and sit in meetings for next 8 hours while Zelda:TotK stares at me.
I just tried to double tap my iPad to skip 30 seconds forward on a work Zoom call if you’re wondering the status of my attention span right now.
My handwriting has atrophied even faster in last 3 years than it already was before WFH.
I mean come on. WTF could this possibly say? Lemon? 🍋
“You shut me down… No I shut myself down! ”
I’ve never had a Mac that caused me any troubles, this client laptop is so loaded with unnecessary corporate garbage that it’s constantly freaking out, shutting down, beach balling. After two years I finally get to send it back in a month. 🎉
(I actually like the project/client, but this laptop has been such a beating for so, so long.)
