If you believe in a better future, then believe you play a role in bringing that vision to life. ✨
AI developing nuclear or chemical weapons? No guardrails to stop it? It's real and it's now. @axios

When coding with Claude (or any #GenAI tool), having fundamental knowledge reduces the likelihood of overly complex code (and having to start over). #wordpress #developer #interactiondesign #wkbnch

I’m increasingly convinced that helping people develop self-control is critical in education and parenting/mentorship. #wkbnch
My new article shows that high-speed internet access worsens adolescent mental health, especially for girls. It increases screen time, reduces sleep, studying, and socializing, and encourages online coping with emotional distress.

Grading = delight! My students created probable, preferable, possible, and preposterous futures with AI for our "You are the Future" assignment. #wkbnch

AI Bytes: tools edition! A few stories I shared with students this week in my AI course: ai.designworkbench.com/ai-by…

When you paste a URL into a page, do you strip off the query parameters (the stuff after the main URL usually used for tracking)? Be kind, rewind (clean URLs). #wkbnch

Web designers: Handy #GenAI prompt for SCSS color gradient variables.
"I need code for 7 equally distributed gray values. The lightest, $color-gray-01, is rgb(242, 242, 242). The darkest, $color-gray-07, is rgb(23, 23, 23). Output variables for each color."

I'm writing some PHP with @AnthropicAI Claude, and the output was spot-on about commenting:
"It makes it easier for other developers (or future you) to find and modify specific functionality."

Today is World #AgeismAwarenessDay. I imagine you want to live long. Great! But as long as #ageism continues, living to old age does not equal living well. Let's change that together. @ScrippsAging #wkbnch

Hey, researchers, our work is pointless if it lacks significance for the people we serve. Set significance as a point in the horizon from the start. #wkbnch #designresearch

As world #ageismawarenessday approaches on Oct. 9, a thought on #ageism. #wkbnch
Ageism strips folx uniqueness—replacing a lifetime of storied experiences with reductive labels disregarding their spirit and potential.
