One of the compelling things about Designer is that we’ve integrated DALL∙E 2 so that you not-only get an ENORMOUS catalog of stock images, but you can create ENTIRELY UNIQUE ONES using AI. Here’s an example I cranked out in less than 2 mins.. who here gets the reference? 😊

To think that UX designers spend whole careers inside nested menus, which Fitts's Law tells us is a terribly inefficient way to work. Why do we put up with this nonsense?

Female software engineers—if you’re planning a trip to Tokyo, please reach out. There are VERY few female software engineers in Tokyo and I would love to connect you with the scene to either meet and inspire women here or give a tech talk. Please share. @girlie_mac @AysSomething

We need to talk about the significance of Princess #Shuri and seeing a Black girl in STEM onscreen. bit.ly/2sU8wIJ
