This seems very low. Just thinking of all of the different ways you can greet someone. The inflection and modifiers based on circumstance and audience alone seems like it would be higher than 1.5mb

I would highly recommend finding a place that offers figure drawing sessions to learn to translate form to paper. That foundation will help you so much when you're trying to translate your vision to canvas. You could also just YouTube

You're not too old! I really like Eloquent JavaScript as an introduction, it's free, you just need your browser to do the coding parts and it's extremely readable. From there I'd try to figure out what sorts of things yo

Warby Parker does an amazing job with their retail experience. They fit your glasses to your face and are generally a joy to work with. I had an extremely low opinion of them from one bad experience years ago with the online try on model an

When UX veers away from research and data it gets nasty. I think the situation you're describing is something that happens when their isn't full buy in from the stake holders on the value of that research

UI !== UX, without the research side it is kinda pointless. I'm not sure if the point of the article was to say that but it's what I read

I tend to work Saturday morning for a few hours on something I find interesting work or otherwise and then do housework and get ready for the next week. Saturday nights I might go out with friends. Sundays I try to see family or friends for

I hope if I'm ever in their shoes I'm as dignified and grateful.

I hated Milton before re-reading Paradise Lost while taking a Milton lecture alongside an Early American Lit course in undergrad. He had a huge influence on Phillis Wheatley writing style and her work and legacy was awe inspiring to me. His

I keep an ongoing text to email chain going on between myself. When I'm not at work I text my personal email and when I am, I email my cell phone number

I currently work with women (and men) who feel their roles as front end devs are considered less than our back end devs within our company. We also have the worst front end "big ol' ball of Javascript" spaghetti mess I'v

Maybe try to pivot into a less technical role, like a developer advocate where you need to be technologically current, but also have a social teaching-esque component to your role.

American's are largely unaware of the IMF and World Bank. It's not something that is mentioned in any huge way. I'd be surprised if more than 15% of the country could give a broad definition of each organization.

The current role I'm in did a great job. There was a technical phone interview, but the in person was with the entire team and they gave me a ton of time to interview them and just have a conversation. It was fun and informal and I sta

When I found my biological mother the similarities were striking. She was a second generation programmer, similar interests, likes and dislikes, we had haunted similar places decades apart, loads of physical quirks. It's mind boggling

You don't book with Scott's Cheap Flights, it's just an e-mail that says what is on sale and the best way to book. I haven't had any issues not getting a meal or being charged for bags on an international flight using th

When I was a kid my parents would take me to Chicago once a year or so and the art institute was always the highlight. This makes me really happy

I wish there was a way to navigate to weirdly specific categories and have 6+ podcasts on screen at once. Great idea!

You're only seeing one part of the situation. I've been homeless and it wasn't apparent to anyone I didn't tell. That's what makes the issue so hard, the assumption is that you're part of that crowd who needs m
