RE: DraftSend landing page When the page loaded, I was greeted with: > Create and Share Interactive Presentations With Just a PDF and Your Voice I have no idea what this means. App…

no, both ui and ux are a part of design.

For sure. I would really like to see more UX articles aimed at developers - I think that would help combat the "design is only looks" attitude you mentioned, it's a bit more logica…

when you're critiquing design, you have to do it in the context of the design goals the team had in mind. So even if Comic Sans (in hot pink) is your favorite font, you would agree…

> First and foremost, their products are easy to use. That's #1. But right after that is the design of their products. Based on this quote and the article, I think that when you sa…

and 250mph+ top speed is PLAID

Ditto on presence. I bought a Vive and it's been... interesting. I actually haven't touched any games in months, but I still break it out every few weeks to prototype something in …

Hi everyone! We started working on Chorus because it was really difficult to recommend the podcasts we love to friends - so we mashed up a podcast player with a social network and …

> Uber has less than a year of runway left at their current burn rate. Do you have a source for this?

I'm curious how well this works. A big part of design (aside from visual pleasantness) is information hierarchy, in which layout (order/spacing/size/etc) of various pieces of conte…

I really enjoy Unreal's Blueprints. I program in a text-based language for work, so it's fun for me to go home and be able to hack on a game without having to spend more hours star…

Huh, I've never heard to keep weight off the keyring. I imagine this is to avoid unnecessary force on the ignition assembly? Obviously you wouldn't want to put several lbs on there…

By definition, the people that make interesting cinematic experiences in VR won't be "film makers". I don't know if we've created a job title for them yet. It's a completely differ…

> inappropriate time management This resonates with me. When I tried Soylent, it was because I was working WAY too much, and that "always-on" mindset carried over into other parts …

It's obvious that this is a super-early release, but I'm happy that AirBnB ENG is working on a navigation solution. Also: On iOS, ViewController transitions can be animated using L…

nifty looking guy react-native-controllers I think you may be reading the docs for the Wix navigation library instead of the Airbnb one linked above.

Funny, so did I. Extremely talented team, and hands-down some of the nicest people I've ever worked with. From what I've heard of Planet, it seems like a solid cultural fit - excit…

Hopefully it does get ported to javascript. In the meantime, if you happen to use react, https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web is a good way to use react-native's styling app…

Agreed. While I do think there are some interesting applications for building perfect reconstructions of reality, I think the most interesting experiences won't be in that directio…

One of the things I always look for in a new house/apartment is a good PaceTrack.

Funny, I'm great at building stuff but I wouldn't consider myself an amazing engineer.

I think that goes deeper than the "story we want to tell" - in other words, I don't think everyone is faking it. Look at Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: - Physiological - Safety - Lov…

That was phenomenal. I constantly struggle with a lot of this - trying to distance myself from many aspects of the culture, without getting too cynical about it. I think most of al…
