Normalize sending Thank You notes to people with their Manager Cc'd. It's like hacking but for organizational clout.

This is an amazing read and something I needed to read.

The feels

Even if you're fully vaccinated, the CDC still recommends staffing one content designer for every UX designer.

Kind reminder: For everyone who thinks installing the overlay #AccessiBe is a good idea, please reconsider. This tool doesn't help to improve the accessibility of your site at all. For more info, please read: overlayfactsheet.com

Finding a picture for this was harder than writing the talk! Still come along and learn more about building contacts within your business (useful for designers and researchers).

Hey Rik Williams random question, but we've started trying to get speakers in once a month a Just Eat to talk to the design team. I was wondering if you would be interested in giving your IA talk x.com/Rik_Williams/s… ? I'd certainly be interested in hearing it.

So googled Piper Down Pub, and umm the second option was not what I was expecting.

Umm, what!?

Same thing here NOMATIC You have the discount banner live right now at the top of your website, but the code doesn't work.

Tell me civil servants: what makes you feel like you belong here? If you had to explain in your own words, what makes you feel connected to the civil service? What does it offer that no where else offers? Please RT for reach 🤩🙌 #civilservice

Hire @Musson, he's great! Seriously though, if you are looking to create a design systems team or need a lead reach out.

For those at the back: you don't need to compare making something "easy to use" with "your mum could use it". It's an outdated, lazy analogy to insinuate women/mums aren't technology literate. I'm a mum. I also have a computer science degree. And so do many, many others #uxdesign

My first Grove Park Carnival at the weekend since moving to the area. Had no idea what to expect, but it was great fun. Perfect for the little one, with vegan waffles and real cider to boot. Already looking forward to next year.

What a wonderful overview of what goes into an accessible design system (tetralogical.com/blog/2022/06/2…), by Henny — from accessibility documentation to editorial style guide to screen reader UX and how to document it. #ux #accessibility

One of the most common complaints I hear about design systems documentation is that it’s too long. “No one wants to read your component essay” “It needs to be shorter or no one’s to read it” But what if I told you the length itself was not the problem? 🧵 1/7

Inaccessibility for colourblindness is caused by design choices. A design issue, not an engineering issue. The fix is design choices, not engineering workarounds. Filters are inherently exclusionary, they aren't the answer. Fix the design instead of trying to fix people's eyes.
