I was looking into it but man that's all so boring. How can I motivate it to consume this content and learn something from it?

- goldenchrome 5y agoDon’t learn it if you don’t want to and don’t need to. On the other hand, if you want a lighter introduction to design, try watching one of Gary Hustwit’s films like Helvetica, Objectified, or Rams. Or read the Design of Everyday Things by Don Norman.
- grenoire 5y agoI can vouch for the Design of Everyday Things too (granted I got the advice from another HN post). It's a brilliant book that exposes you to some of the common pitfalls of product design and gives you many mental frameworks to work with to embrace your designs' shortcomings and, most importantly, address them.
- nefitty 5y agoWow. I almost skipped all the book recs as is usual for me with UX and design stuff, but you totally sold me on this one.
