Let's say you offer a custom built UX design system with components. Most of it is written. At some point, you need a big component that doesn't exist yet, but other teams could benefit from that. This is such a situation, and it

A platform team might have a very unevenly distributed workload. Some weeks nothing has to be done on the platform, everything works fine. Then all of a sudden 2 teams request some extra features. How many people do you put in the platform

The big difference between US and EU was that in EU you had to pay for the minutes on the phone. So basically you were never really free to use the internet for as long as you wanted.

You don't need user interviews, you just see where they are going. Are they discussing this on twitter or reddit? Are they making YouTube videos? Did one of them start a Discord with lots of people there? Once you see what works, make

Let me give you some more info. I started first with a forum on my own website (bbpress). I also had a twitter and facebook account where I posted updates. Still have YouTube. I'm 44, so for me a forum is ideal, Discord is way too inte

The thing is, Discord might be 99% effortless. For me at least, I have a very young audience, and everyone wants to be on Discord. If a nice community member proposes to moderate, it's basically almost no effort. To put it short: I exp

I'm from Belgium, and it's actually pretty great here to go to the docter, dentist, surgeon or pharmacy. Not the craziness of US. To each their own I guess.

It depends on your countries health system of course. If that one is sponsored by the government, it's only fair to tax the shit out of unhealthy food.

Sure! But credit where credit is due: I didn't invent this but got it from Thich Nhat Hanh, so it's a Zen Buddhism philosophy. This story for me made the click of how Zen Buddhism looks at the world.

Imagine we go to the beach, and we observe the waves. A wave is born in the sea, then rolls forward until it dies on the beach. Each wave is different, and how sad it is that it's gone once it reaches the beach. The thing is, a wave is

The biggest problem with scientific studies is that you get noticed for remarkable results. So what do scientists do? Either try to exaggerate their conclusion or even fraud. Most scientific studies are plain up boring and don't find a

How can you triangulate if you're only connected to 1 tower?

Cell phones are only connected to 1 tower afaik. So no triangulation is possible, only the tower they are connected to, which is very broad.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but cell phone companies only know which tower you are currently connected to. So it's pretty inaccurate. The only thing that is "house accurate" is the GPS on your phone. That means they need ac

The technology really doesn't matter that much, it's the network where the real value is. And I don't see how the Twitter network overlaps with the Instagram network. Instagram is more of a celebrity network, while Twitter an

"Content" is still a bit different, because it feels more layed back. The funny part is that "gelukkig" (same word but in Dutch) litteraly means "lucky". I'm sure it's the same for German. But lucky a
