I need a witch speaker in every Converge from now on!

a woman is making a funny face and says o que ? Alt: Mulher com expressão facial confusa perguntando “o que?” a outra pessoa.

Como diria Gretchen, “o que?”

It was a great talk, Donnie! And the way you delivered it was so refreshing! Should’ve said that to your face but got too shy to interrupt your chats last night

Take a leap and go for it! There will always be another book to read, another citation to be added… you already have it, really

+1 on that. Talking about the human factor in design systems is such a delicate subject. Kudos to @guysegal.com for doing that with so much kindness and respect. That talk was 100% relatable!

… but the themes you explored would fill a gap on decolonial design literature

A side note: I come from a bit of an academic background, I studied Cultural Studies and Post-Colonial Theory. Seeing your talk connecting these themes with Design Systems hit home so much! No idea if you have thought about exploring this talk through other mediums like writing a book +

UX London 2026: talk & workshop proposals Thanks for your interest in UX London! We get a huge number of people interested in speaking at the event so the aim of this form is to understand a bit about your background as well as details of wha...

Hi John! Your talk was great, I can’t imagine how you felt with all the interruptions (your sense of humour managing it all was awesome, wish I had the chance to say hi in person). About the conferences, I can see your talk in one of Rosenfeld’s or UX London (I’ll drop the link below) 👇

Coxinha Although a regular coxinha is more the size and shape of a bulbous, dumpy pear, these are mini versions, like fat little figs, and you can get a fabulous 70 of these emblematically Brazilian chicken...

It’s the Sete de Setembro – Brazil’s Independence Day – so it is only right that Coxinha, the emblematically Brazilian chicken croquette, is #RecipeOfTheDay! These, though, are mini versions, much more manageable for making at home. www.nigella.com/recipes/coxi...

If I’m being honest, I’m feeling pretty crap about my small business.

It’s so bloody difficult at the moment with rising costs, US tariffs, Brexit nonsense and the threat of AI.

Your new card component will not solve your content problems.

I’ll miss my FigPal so much 😭 I don’t know why Figma doesn’t want to keep it. I just wanted it in my bottom nav bar, not asking for much 🥹

The #NoMouse Challenge is a global effort to raise awareness about accessible web design. Try using your website without a mouse. Use the keyboard instead. Is it possible to access all features and operate all buttons, sliders, and other controls?

Your talk on the last Converge was an absolute gem 💜

An example: Currently in the US government’s DS are being “asked” to remove any mention of accessibility, diversity and inclusion from their documentation…

If there’s a branch of Design that’s extremely political is design systems. How on earth design decisions that are used in scale in a product are not political? If people are doing DS and not understanding the ethical responsibility and impact they have I’m not sure they understand what a DS is…

Woooohoooooo! Congrats, Dan 🎉🎈🎊

I think I should earn a Nobel Peace Prize for all the conflicts I need to resolve on a @figma.com file every time I need to merge a branch 😭😔

Newspaper stand with newspapers all carrying the front page Campaign 'make it fAIr'

Every major UK newspaper - left, right, broadsheet, tabloid - is running a front page campaign against copyright carveouts for AI training.

I can't remember the last time any political cause had such broad support, let alone one so anti-big tech and so economically consequential.

I’m really sorry the horrible political climate reached this point in Germany too, Sil — sending love and strength

Talk about atomic design without knowing much about design systems so you look like you know a lot about design systems to people who don’t know anything about it
