As a designer none of these make me worried about my skill set, they all look pretty bad with the slightest amount of attention. The real concern is how ugly a world the capitalists are willing accept to cut labor costs, and we know the ans

Maybe true but still a bad take. Reducing the surface area of a problem like this makes its much easier to iterate on energy efficiencies than having millions of cars to replace periodically all with variable lifespans

Can you elaborate more? Most of the 'specificity' I see missing just lives inside SwiftUI and IB now. The platform/OS manages so much layout automatically these days I think the 'design' work is moving up the abstra

I can't stress how true this is. I've never seen the police solve any crime they were called for. They just show up and shrug. However I recently saw the police raid my neighbor in full swat gear cause someone on Nextdoor said the

I’ve been doing UI for 20+ years and most of what I’ve worked on is determined by marketing & engineering. I understand & totally sympathize with not liking the results, but in my experience the designers rarely choose what (ui) pro

Nobody who travels ‘wants’ to burn oil. Capital decided oil is the most profitable way to deliver that. There was never a point where individual personal consumption habits could have changed this course.

What does the term “woke” mean in this comment? You use it like it has a specific set of definitions I should know, but it mostly looks like a catch-all for any uncomfortable positions someone would rather not confront.

The us military is a tool for economic imperialism, if they existed to protect individual freedom they might try and stop the Yemeni genocide or generally maybe not help overthrow democratically elected governments.

I agree with some of your post but I also think that reducing it to body count is sidestepping just how differently police treat black communities. Cops have done horrible things to every race, they are especially aggressive with black peo
