one of the most underrated asymmetries right now is that slop is totally fine for the backend and basically fatal in the frontend.
if you’re backend is slop, the app still works. if your front end and overall experience is slop, the *product* does not.

I bet all those dudes that got married and started a family feel pretty stupid when they're at lil Timmy's birthday party on Nov 4th and I'm killing gnolls on my level 8 druid. Losers.
I think design school puts too much emphasis on explaining and justifying all of your design decisions
Design and art are a language far more complex than any spoken / written language, to put it into words only waters down what your true intentions were
Trying to explain your work is a whole other job in itself which distracts you from your main job which is creating important things that you believe should exist in the world
This is a very textbook phenomenon in the market called “rotation out of all the names you specifically own and into names you don’t”. This happens when all the market participants have a meeting you aren’t invited to and decide they hate you.
