Life is limited and precious. Your beauty and your abilities slowly fade. But really, over time, you give your beauty and your abilities to your children. They are you after all, and they go on.

2 months late but... so awesome. This is the way. Have always been a little bit ashamed of my Figma files...but no more!
Designers at the hottest consumer AI startup solve UI details in code not Figma That's how @perplexity_ai is able to nail the design details and ship a ground breaking product! @henrymodis shows how he updates the design for @perplexity_ai directly in code👇

Passion is a great driver. If you LOVE the product you’re building, it often leads to a very good product, especially if you are tuned in and not designing in a vacuum.

my oddly-specific-strong-opinion is that you should never hardcode a number that will change because you will always forget to update it

Stop being a baby when you get feedback. Someone is giving you a window into how they experience you. They might fumble, be insensitive, offend you, or even be wrong. Who cares? Show gratitude for their courage so they'll keep doing it. This is the data you need to improve.
