Let's all have company names like malumba rather than tekarak. And let's have soft, rounded fonts rather than sharp, jaggedy ones. And logos that you want to give a warm big hug, not ones that look menacingly down on you. Embrace the world with your design. #StreamOfConsciousness

My 13yo is amazing at English spelling and must be getting it from video games because he just doesn't read many books, especially not in English. Yesterday he nailed 35 phrases/words into English... one of them I thought he would struggle with: "Damn it".
Did. Not. Hesitate.

@d0pp13r What I failed to mention was that the person ahead of me turned to me and said "Do not try the contactless option, it doesn't work." 😂
The pretty @Starbucks machine invites me to insert my card. I do, and promptly obscure the further instructions. 🤪

To anyone seeing the NFC symbol on my card and the machine and thinking I should just have done a contactless purchase... no, that didn't work.
There is something rotten in the state of UX... another good one by @jmspool

My biggest issue is with the Close-button. I would have expected the label ”Save”.

@d0pp13r Nästan viktigare vad A:et står för. Det är artificiellt. Alltså inte på riktigt. Man bör nog ha förväntningar i nivå med det. :)

“That’s why we say these kids are no good. We can’t accept that life goes on without us. And instead of accepting it, we lay the blame for the whole state of affairs at the feet of the next generation.” — @heyfeifer medium.com/s/youthnow/why…
A box full of workbooks for my workshop at EuroIA: Mostly Harmless – Design for digital with a conscience.
Participants will learn some practical methods for incorporating an ethical mindset and framework in their current design processes.
And through self-reflection they will learn a bit more about themselves.
Kan bara hålla med Darja. Sätt av tid för läsning.

En upplysande tråd av Sigrid Melchior, svensk journalist i Bryssel, om de svenska mediernas roll i veckans EU-parlamentsomröstning om upphovsrättsdirektivet.
”Känslan man får av de flesta artiklarna om upphovsrätten är att konflikten står mellan å ena sidan alla som vill ha ett fritt internet och å andra sidan ”EU”. Men som vanligt behöver man inte gå efter ån för att hämta vatten, det finns gott om svenska intressen på båda sidor.”
