I just screened a suspected spam call on my Google Pixel phone. Reading the transcript the callers language seemed formal and stilted. The spam bot was talking to my screening bot.
It's happening, the AIs are chatting to each other. I should have left the conversation run and see where they got to

โFรผr Das Kindโ at Liverpool Street Station
Viccy Ibbett, Public Catalogue Foundation Volunteer,ย tells us about aย touching sculpture at Liverpool Street station, commemorating the help given to refugees in World War II: โIn Liverpool Sโฆ
Tra elling through Liverpool Street station for nearly 15 years but never spotted this poignant memorial. The injustice and cruelty of bigotry committed at state level needs reminding to us all. After recent events, have we forgotten where it leads

In design we use progressive disclosure to reveal a feature/functionality in phases. Each phase is based on a users context. User research can be revealed to an audience in that progressive way.

Chickenpox vaccines for children on NHS starts across UK
For the first time, children will be offered vaccination on the NHS against the common infection which, in rare cases, can be very serious.
Very easy for us all to slip down the social media fury rabbit hole of outrage at the experts But worth also remembering the advances experts make. This new vaccine is progress.

A delivery tracker that shows what stop you are on the driver's route. With a map indicating their location.
So much easier to plan around when WFH. Well done to the British Heart Foundation collections team.
Running workshops online then losing momentum and having to doordash is getting annoying.

Gov budgets are tight - "do more with less" they say. But also don't get spread too thinly creating risks of failure.

no matter how many times I have to type "algoridim" into screens I always spell it wrong, then let the autospell fix it and then forget how to spell algorythm again the next time.
I do it with rythmic precision. (spot how many spelling mistakes)

Business France page with centre aligned content box
UI design has really gotten lazy. Content often now is centre aligned on webpages. Saw this first in the abundance of Wordpress templatery when media queries began as a convenient approach to mobile design.
But it's now become the norm. So oddly off, look at the "Our aim" content below

Working in Figma always ends up this way.
I really think the best laid plans and good intentions behind figmas componentization just never really works.

Noticing a huge increase in websites and companies employing surveys and user research in the past couple of years. A good sign. Theory: the low interest rate mania of hockey stick user expansion is over were in an era of retention and value for the user
