Such a shame what happened to the brand design of the fashion world.
Fascinating read about the redesign of Wikipedia and the role that prototypes played in it.
The irony of Chat GTP asking me to verify I’m a human 😂
Finished reading: Foundation & Empire by Isaac Asimov 📚
My iPhone has taken to having phantom touches and doing things by itself. It appears it might be time to replace my XS…
Exploring the IBM Design Language is really rather beautiful…
I’m just gonna get this off my chest here.
I don’t think VR is the next big thing and I don’t think it will be the success everyone seems to be saying it will be.
Finished reading: Diddly Squat: ‘Til The Cows Come Home by Jeremy Clarkson 📚
I need to stop reading the comments on political things.
I’ve had the app Soro on my iPhone/iPad for ages so I could use shortcuts to play stuff on my Sonos. Discovered last week that it’s also on the Mac and now I can’t stop finding ways to use it! Brilliant app.
Found myself installing Evernote to play with again yesterday. The one thing I’ve always liked about it is how easy it is to get stuff into.
Decided to carry out an experiment. One todo app for work and a different one for my personal stuff. Todoist for work as it integrates better with Microsoft 365 and Things for all my personal stuff. Let’s see how it goes.
Instruction from the doctor: Lose weight your cholesterol is too high. Nothing like a statement like that to make you feel worse about yourself.
A terrible thing has happened. I’ve run out of coffee beans and there’s no time to go buy some before my first meeting of the day…
Currently reading: The Innovators by Walter Isaacson 📚🎧
Absolutely love this. I’ll be saving this to return to many times. Go and read Lessons of Design.
May finally have got it working… sometimes it takes a vent post to make you reset and look for a different way.
No matter what I do, I can never get tags to work in Jekyll. I’ve followed so many tutorials to try and get tag pages to work, but the plugins never do.
First steps playing with Figma today. We’ve been all in on XD for visual design but it seems to be dead and keeps breaking things.
1Password is going to support passkeys. This looks really interesting, might be time to do some passkey research.
Spent a bit more time working on my personal site. I’ve now revived the Jekyll powered blog and plan to keep playing with the site. Need to add a little personality to it but more of the bare bones are there now.
Cameron Moll’s problem solving process is very similar to mine. Start with a basic understanding of the problem, and iterate on the problem and the solution.
I wish Sonos would make a proper Mac app.
Came across these rather beautiful pens this morning.
