@gustavgatu @feedbin That part is to deter a lot of automation of cross-channel tracking. As when companies share databases with each other to draw conclusions about behavior, wherein the e-mail address is a unique id. Hackers get a harder time as well.
But really it's just me experimenting :)
These days I mostly see job postings when they are forwarded to me for "amusement", which is a problem because more and more I feel some responsibility to take a stand against the atrocities.
This is for a "UX/UI Designer". x.com/axbom/status/1…
Now I want to conduct research to find out what organizations think they are asking for when they say UX/UI Designer and conversely what candidates think they are applying for.
Or just make a rap song about how data is another word for users.
🎼 I saw four people in a drive-in queue

@radicallyrach At some point before leaving Facebook I had more friends that weren't friends than I had friends who were. For a while the word lost significance. Now I think of a friend as anyone I know I would enjoy going for a long walk with and I believe they would feel the same. 😊

@DesignAThought Isn’t that just a fancy word for a template? Like Masterclass is a fancy name for a workshop 😀
Apple TV+ on iOS is a bizarre interaction design mess. I don’t know what’s part of the subscription, what I have to pay for, what I can’t even watch without an additional subscription. And then I haven’t even started on the continuity disaster of watching series...
As a UX designer, I want templates for __________ so that ___________.
