Fresh out of university in 2009 I worked as a graphic designer at a tiny UX/UI studio (4 including myself) that did contract work primarily for RIM (Blackberry). A year into this j…

Gorgeous. And, as a curious artist— is the 'GeoColor' image composited by the satellite camera or done manually afterward in post? Mostly, I'd love to see raw stills of the differe…

Similar. Except, I won a pentium (286?) machine running windows 3.11 in 1998 as a 13 year old from a top hat raffle (yes, a magician's type top hat). True story. It had a flavor of…

I'll admit #2 is an annoyance for me... but I'll reluctantly bite. However, I would have a hard time giving up #1 to a machine. I do a great deal of my creative thinking, schedulin…

For me, dealing with imposter syndrome is about empathetic perspective; YMMV. It's 1:30am and I'm 'pulling a shift' with my 1 month old while my wife and 4 year old sleep. I'm slow…

I am a 30 year old, "first generation Mexican-American" who has had to work incredibly hard... from manual farm labor to today's creative tech/entrepreneurial world... for my curre…

Along a similar path, there was a dystopian theory (story?) I came across that made a somewhat insightful reference to this in connection with the Fermi Paradox - what if advanced …

From my perspective, this tool and others like it in areas like web development or stock photography are beneficial. Affordable access to these resources for businesses and individ…

I follow a very similar pattern here on HN. One thing I've been thinking about lately is that I always read the comments first and only sometimes visit the link. The links act as t…

I, for one, am really excited that Google has approached these "experiments" in the manner it has. I'm a designer with a keen eye on new media; so by no means a programmer/develope…

Loved it — just wished there were links to YouTube clips with examples from classic cartoons.

While reading this, I started wondering if there are any other 3rd party (civilian?) accounts of the event or if the geography / remoteness made it 'invisible' to everyone else? I …

I agree with these thoughts based on the current state of 360VR (or non-interactive, if you will) but I'm optimistic about the future changing this perspective. 360VR for narrative…

After recently finishing The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin, the sci-fi trope of life at different magnitudes is fascinating to think about. Without spoiling too much, there's a c…
