You can be a great developer or designer, even if you don't live in San Francisco.


My love languages are: alone time canceled meetings (last minute is best) people enjoying my cooking

Looks like I need to find a new job. Anyone hiring EMs these days? Also interested in engineering work, most interested in ethical targeted use of LLMs (eg tools that are run to augment existing human flows). I’m kind and smart and fun, hire me!


Just finished my talk. I’ll post a link to the video when it’s available.

Collect | Systematize | Communicate | Improve No one will thank you for the work you do on a design system – until they need it. It's a discipline – apply pressure to find time so you can do this work. @GarthDB Lead Sr Staff Engineer, Adobe #frontutah #designsystem #ux

It’s very cool and surreal meeting people who listen to our podcast IRL! Thanks for saying such nice things and making my day.

In case @KatieLangerman isn't the sort of person to post about this herself: people (plural) have apparently approached her at Config and asked her if she's Katie from the Complementary podcast, and then said nice things about the podcast. She's design famous.



A package of fun things delivered to my door in preparation for @Adobe Design Summit next week.

Does anyone have a doc coverage solution they like? ESDoc has a coverage report tool, but also ESDoc hasn't been updated in 6 years.


Do a barrel roll.


Every year, I get tricked into thinking I won't have bad allergies because they hit later than I expect, and then something tips the scale and they take me out.


Mostly because it’s a cool word. Look at those vowels. 3 “s” sounds but only 2 “s”s.

Why do people choose stoicism?



One thing I’ve relearned from working on design systems is that naming is hard, but every once in a while, I feel like we nail it. My litter robot is one of those times.

Mostly it’s powered by guilt.

Technical folks with personal blogs, what’s your stack?
