My favourite people to work with are those with a god complex but nothing to prove. Just materialistic and spiritual ambitions to maximise pleasure and contentment in life. I can spot them now. And I tolerate their genius. Their company is more important to me than their tantrum.

"design leader" is a cringe title. Manager, Director, VP, Head is fine. They tell where you are in your company's career framework. "leader" sounds like "I'm god treat me well". That's ok, except when your portfolio with 8-10Y XP looks no better than that of new grad in 2025.

People disguise their hostility by saying their advices are from experience. What works for those who operate from a place of fear won't work for somebody with an insurance. Think about the things the other person risk to loose that you don't when listening.

I'm too right wing for the left and I'm too left wing for the right. I'm too into humanities for those in tech and I'm too into tech for those in the humanities. What I'm learning is that failing to polarize is itself quite polarizing.

Unsettling amount of lessons are derived from moments when an act didn't go as planned which - on a different day, with a different set of actors would've worked out just fine.

37signals was ahead of time. If there is anything I fanboy in tech it's them. Do they have the best interface - no. Did they nail the system of building simple software that work without the status clownery - 100%.
