yooo, tomorrow I'll talk about the Dunning-Kruger effect and all its intricacies, make sure to tune in :)
Ever been sure your design was perfect only to see it fail in user tests? 😅 The Dunning-Kruger effect often tricks even the most confident among us. Join @pablostanley as he explores how to overcome these blind spots in design and business.

Huge news. Big announcement.
Last year at Config 2023 @bchesky said something while being interviewed by @zoink that struck a chord with me.
1. Have a nerve
2. Designers should start companies...
...and I took that personally.
We're full time @divinate_co baby 😎

If you didn't manage to grab a ticket for the fabulous @uxcampeurope (or even if you did!), why not pop over to Brighton (UK) for UX Camp Brighton 2024 on Sat 27 April?
We're only 30 mins from Gatwick Airport… come and join us European friends!

Why should I come to @UXCampBrighton, rather than another UX event?
It's a low-cost 'unconference'. About 40% of attendees will run a 20-min session: doing a talk, workshop, etc. You can run a session or just attend. Up to 45 sessions to choose from!

Everyone says talk to your customers.
No one tells you how much time it takes.
@tihalstead and I have been grinding on this for a minute and today... we launch. Divinate!
Divinate helps you make sense of user research faster so you can build the right thing for your customer.

If you are a designer, you must know this chair 👇
The brainchild of design legends Charles and Ray Eames, the Eames Lounge Chair has become a case study in great design.
But do you now the fascinating (business) story behind the chair and the company producing it @HermanMiller

The idea that something can’t be truly good until it grows 100x is truly a disease.

The dust has settled on this month's big news that Adobe is acquiring Figma.
Away from the design world's hot takes, we've been looking at analysis of the deal outside of our industry in the latest @designersxbiz newsletter.

Being more clear in your methods of communication will help you stand out from the crowd. I appreciate @johncutlefish approach to being strategic with wording.
