This is what large parts of the commercial WWW has become. It really saddens me. It’s like a hundred tortured voices screaming in desperation. How do we fix this?! How did we get here?

What needs to change is culture around value and technology to support it. Being a journalistic publication in this day and age must be tough with a web culture of “everything is free.” How do you compete with that?! We all need to put bread on the table.
Here’s a practical example how broken the web system is. Okay so a friend told me about a cool DIY instax back for the Mamiya RZ/RB cameras. I do a web search and end up on this film photography website. Looks legit. Looks like work of passion. Good stuff.
As I start scrolling, the document starts jumping up and down like spasm. Turns out there are a lot of display ads, some of them blinking like a strobe.
When enabling an ad blocker, this message is shown. Notice the tiny text with a hyperlink at the very bottom. Yes interesting.
So obviously I’d rather pay with money than with my life energy and mental energy, so I tap it. At this point I’ve already spent several minutes of time and been subject to some disturbing ads. Cost for reading about this DIT project is climbing...
Tapping that link takes me here [image 1] which after another tap takes me to a sign up form which asks me to do more work. Plus, it asks me to commit to at minimum $5/mo. That’s the price of Spotify! Way too high. If I visit 100 websites like these I’d pay $500/mo which is \
a ridiculous proposition. At this point I gave up and cut my losses. Cost: ~5 min time, some disturbing blinking ads that made me feel a little ill for a minute. Ideally there would be a system-level button on the article “read for $1”; tapping it INSTANTLY (<100ms) opens the \
article, subtracts $1 from my bank account and adds $1 to the author’s bank account. Key is that ease. Only work if it’s system level (no shit “extensions” or “js libraries” will do), really fast and easy to use for authors.
Apple has come close with their own universe of software. Imagine that but at a global scale.

As I've gotten further into my design career, one thing is super clear: writing is such an extremely important part of the design process. Write frequently. Don't worry about writing well and perfecting every phrase for a design/strategy/etc brief.
Starting a new design exploration? Write a design brief to dive into the current state of things, problem, opportunity and unknowns. Starting a new workstream with engineers? Write a one-pager to talk about what it is, isn't, what's at risk if not done, examples and team process
Thinking about strategy for a large product area? Maybe start with an audit of existing product areas and upcoming needs, then talk about potential opportunities. Thinking about some new research you want? Write a one-pager about what you'd like to learn and why it would help
Want to clean up an existing product area? Write about broken windows/tech debt and opportunities with examples Diving into a complex animation problem with engineering? One-pager to describe all facets of the existing issue and proposed ways to attack the problem
And dozens more.. write and share frequently. Especially in our current covid remote working setup. The best benefit of getting into the swing of this over the years? Easy to search for and share out again. It's not lost in some slack/email/jira.

What’s even better than a discussion on creative business with my coach? When my coach and HIS coach share insights for creative businesses, like Should I niche? Am I coachable? How to be memorable to prospective clients? So good! #visualnotes

I got a pair of these cheap air humidifiers and decided to turn one of them into a “smart device”. Follow this thread for updates on the project 🤓
FYI this is it for today. The next step is to get all of the software together before wiring everything up more permanently, stay tuned for updates.
Update: I took some time away from the rest of the hardware today in order to learn how to use the BLE stack on an ESP32 board (yes, I decided to use an ESP32 board for this project). It was quite easy to get this working and talking to a tiny SwiftUI app on an iPhone.
0:000:00
This is not the board I’ll be using for the final project, but since this one has a built-in OLED display, it was a great way to make something tangible using BLE without any external hardware.
It took me some time today to figure out how to get the ESP8266 HomeKit project to work (probably in part due to my insistence in using my M1 Mac for this), but I got it working and added to my Home app.
Just published a post on how I got the ESP8266 package to work with the Arduino Pro IDE on my M1 Mac https://rambo.codes/posts/2021-02-16-programming-the-esp8266-on-an-m1-mac

Elon Musk builds products that customers rave about, controls his distribution instead of relying on PR agencies and the mainstream media, and teams up with Internet-first creators to spread his message. His reach is unprecedented, but his tactics are worth copying.

Excited to share Design Lint, a @figmadesign plugin I’ve been working on for a few months. The plugin finds and highlights missing styles (for type, borders, effects, fills, etc) and incorrect border radius values in the context of your designs.
