Apparently, news of our high schoolers protesting horrible conditions made it out of France. Just so you know, conditions were already horrible back in the 1990s with classes of up to 40 students, teachers not being replaced and terrible infrastructure. Little was done. It got worse.

Zakynthos, full of colors and surprises... And currently populated with at least two SHD agents! 😁 I don't think I could travel any place in the world without meeting at least one of us. Though, I got so caught up in conversation I forgot to take a photo with @mech-warrior.bsky.social 😅

the AI industry needs to earn at least $6 trillions to make the datacenters spending spree worth it and i wonder how they are going to do that once everyone is out of a job because of them. www.reddit.com/r/technology...

The view this morning in Zakynthos. Finally, two weeks of not doing any work at all, not hearing about school projects and not despairing at any WCAG violation. Bonus points for any new Greek word learned.

1950s dead stock* swimsuit. 1950s. DEAD STOCK. Oh yeah, and my ugly ass wearing it, but who cares?! NINETEEN FIFTIES DEAD STOCK!!! 🥹😭 *Never sold at the time and forgotten in some warehouse for decades, so basically never worn until now.

This is an important book for UX designers, and it's easy to get why. But the more I dive into it, the more I realize that, in this world obsessed with AI and instant gratification provided by 10s videos on social media, it should be mandatory read for any human being with a functional brain.

Just small UX things I enjoy: I just noticed Bsky automatically added "1/2" and "2/2" labels on my mini-thread messages. We should have thought of that years ago when Twitter was still kinda cool!

No pun intended at all, but watching a blind player play a Zelda game by entirely relying on sound has been a very eye-opening experience as a UX designer who isn't even in the gaming industry. 1 highlight: he could tell he was blocked by something when Link played the "pushing objects" sound (1/2)

Did I just store my whole CAMP by mistake again? The exact one I was still rebuilding? Yuuup. There's a game UX lesson here in Destructive Actions 101. If your game sees a player is about to store a whole bunch of items at once, which is definitely unusual behavior, maybe ask for confirmation.

Either Figma has built-in Flow, or it's highly compatible with how my brain works. Never been as focused as this week with all the wireframing, except maybe when I was learning 2000 kanjis by filling pages and pages, some 20 years ago. Yay!

This thing is my lifeline right now. Been in heatwave state since end of May. Zinc roof right above us, 200 y-o building: walls keep heat inside, as per design. 30-40 degrees (90-105 eagle units) almost daily for three months in this context is absolute madness. With AC, we're at 27ºC.

Did I scrap my whole camp by accident instead of just 1 element AGAIN last night? Yup... UX/UI has improved a hell lot in Fallout 76 lately, but this... Thiiiis drives me crazy. The game should ask for confirmation when it detects you're about to store 80% of your camp in just one click. 😂

ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

Explaining accessibility to someone who sells AI-made websites... "But AI tools can do that, right? 🥹" No my dude, the data sets are made of websites filled with accessibility errors. AI can't do shit if you, the maker, don't know the rules (WCAG), and to understand the rules you need to know HTML!

One year of dressing vintage. And I don't mean retro fast fashion. I mean "spend time fixing 40s and 50s clothes to keep them for 20 more years" vintage. Zero harm done to the planet. Zero made in China BS. Zero support for brands with values I don't align with. And a lot more happiness.

In other news, I got to try Figma Make at work, and if you seriously believe it will ever replace UX designers, you don't understand the job of UX designers. But it's cool to have to write a prompt for 40 minutes to get one page of semi-decent wireframe. After all, who needs water, right? 🤷‍♀️

I know I should be excited by all the news from Bethesda, but it's hard to be excited about anything with the current game industry actively being destroyed by people who don't understand basic things such as "AI can only poorly duplicate the existing" and "workers are actual human beings".

I think working on information architecture is among my favorite UX things. It's always extremely challenging at first as a messy neurodivergent who goes in every direction all at once. But then you get to pick the users' brains and they slam their ideas in your face, and, wow, a cohesive interface!
