meds are expensive pill issue

Receipt printers are fun. Started a project last week and have some big plans for this little guy.

So legitimately excited to finally get to unveil some of the work myself, @nebson, and some of my peers have been working on for the iPhone Duo. Seriously so much fun, and was wild to see it featured in the Keynote

A couple fun easter eggs. Craftdeck cards on the coffee table in the design studio with a rotating list of characters. cc @gabrielvaldivia and @chrisw

I love to-do lists. Things 3 is my favorite, but I wanted to try creating something a bit more tailored for how I use my lists. Here's a little demo.

The job market is a tale of two cities right now. The difference I am noticing between the folks who are inundated with eye-watering seven-figure offers and those who have trouble finding a role is simply the ability to keep learning, adapting, and getting better. It's a brave new world out there. Gone are the days of sticky notes and following the "right process." Things to start doing : 1. Get comfortable with code. Like, now. If you missed the boat on trad code, plenty of IDEs to play with. Did you start yet? No?? I'm begging you, please. For me. 2. Build personal projects. What are you building in your free time? What is the real you, free from the shitty design systems that bind you, capable of? This also clearly demonstrates a builder's mindset and agency. 3. Work on your visual design and creativity. I think years ago, "complexity in the work" and "product thinking" allowed us to get away with weaker craft, but no more. Get weird, people. Have fun with your site and portfolio. Make something memorable. A great start would be @joshpuckett 's Interface Craft. 4. Get curious. It's a fucking designer's playground right now, there are so many fun tools out there to experiment with!

interesting approach from @monogram_ai to generative ui Software has always bundled capabilities with fixed interfaces: idea --> notes app need food --> grocery app book a flight --> travel app Most of those interfaces are full of features designed for everyone not tailored to you Generate only the interface you need, when you need it cool

New portfolio update. Had to replace the old one because it looked like everybody elses. More to come darn.fish
