Currently in mild shock after being told it's more important for your career to post about designing than to actually design. I think they might be right

The makers of Xbox One X Series S didn't nail the naming?? 😱😱😱
It’s still all over the place. Lots of people in orgs use the web apps - on office.com - but those are labelled Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Basically the branding continues to be a trashfire, I’m not sure Microsoft even understands the user experience now.

How do you demonstrate your "process" in a way that doesn't make you look like a fresh grad? (Tired of 'case study guides" that just prove that you know when to use a radio button vs a checkbox)

Also the more time I spend here and tumblr vs reddit and IG the more I'm like "ohhhh this is why I used to love social media so much when it was first happening, I forgot it used to just be like this."

Well if this isn't the most uplifting thing I've read all day
There is another way: I successfully connected with a bunch of well known people from my industry through the medium of unhinged shitposting.
Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.

No joke the DMV's UX team is fuckin *on* it.
It’s also the individualized service that has done the best job of using technology to improve their user experience.
