#2I don't get it. Was hoping to learn something about how to make the perfect backpack. ;-)

#3Spare a moment for those whom change leaves behind. The ones with pretty backpacks that have pony tails. The ones who have to cry.
Spare a thought for those whom numbers don’t define. The ones who draw strength from stories of humpback whales. The ones who hear the redwoods’ cry.
Spare a feeling for those whom see through the self-congratulatory lies. The ones who know that the X in UX is a haphazard lie. The ones who know that sometimes even numbers can cry.
Spare a tiny piece of your heart before the day you too get left behind and become undefined while feeling you’re seeing through the lies.

I feel pretty shallow for saying this but I was hoping for information on perfectly adjusting one's backpack based on their anatomy/measurements.
Who has time for literary beauty when so many dumb things occupy one's mind :D

So part of this is all about you, but not in the way you wanted. You're not just a reader in this; you're part of the ensemble; did you see yourself as you read?

#8> Dustin wants me to know that it was his decision to not hire me. “I have to feel really good about a person before I bring them on, and I don’t feel that way about you,” he says.
Whenever I took a decision to fire somebody, I always made a point of openly taking responsibility for it. I thought it was the right thing to do; I was sick of people who couldn't stomach making a decision, and that I could at least look the person I was letting go in the eye and try to explain, in the most honest and open way possible the reason for my decision. Same for declining to hire someone after an interview.
But reading this, it felt unnecessary cruel; now I wonder if it's sometimes best to just let these things work out themselves. May be not everyone is like me, and some people don't really need this conversation.
One thing for certain though: Dustin had no self-interest in having this conversation, after author have already been informed about the decision.

Same. There's a diy gear community on Reddit where sometimes creators share their patterns and kits. The models are amateurish yet inspiring.
