New stickers alert ✨ @jukes.ie #CampDigital
a macbook laptop decorated with a few stickers. Some stickers to highlight are a circular sticker with a black background that reads 'Cynical Optimist' with 'cynical' in white and 'optimist' in pink. Another square sticker that says 'GOV.UK Make things open, it makes things better' in vertical.a few pair of hands reaching out to grab from a stack of variety of stickers on a table.

If you see the word 'Spearheaded,' on a cover letter or CV, you just know it's written by chatGPT

I understand the sentiment of 'convincing' stakeholders about inclusion and accessibility with legal terms and consequences, but can't a girl just talk about inclusion and diversity of disabled folks as celebrating diversity and humanness of life. why does everything have to be convincing someone

to all user researchers or gov people: which recruitment agency do you use? are there any 'agencies' that specifically have relationships with minoritised groups?

despite all the shit things happening around the world, I've finally found the balance of romanticising small things in life and doing big fun things in life & I've never been happier.

The best clapback of the week goes to the Mexican president suggesting that the North American continent be known as “América Mexicana” because 'an 1814 founding document that preceded Mexico’s constitution referred to it that way.'

It's terrifying that Trump Americans don't understand how tariffs work & how much harm it's going to cause THEM. And, the scariest of all, 'how many Americans will have the opportunity to hear it in its entirety'?

The world has become scarier in the last couple of weeks, and we have to pretend that everything will be okay and still work.

Has anyone heard of a conference asking you to sign a contract as a speaker? Is this normal?

With an increased use of AI on job applications, please please please know that we can tell AI wrote that for you. Unless you're really good at writing prompts which most people aren't. You'd be surprised how our human brains can pick up artificial content so quickly and well.

genuinely the worst part about being a user researcher is that you have to listen to yourself many many times and have to control your urge to beat yourself up for asking leading questions or not asking good follow up questions.
