Yes!👇 👇👇 but also the people making decisions, believe they are basing those decisions on data 😏

I can save you the several hours of attending my research workshop (which is fun and you should anyway) with the tl;dr that no one makes decisions based on data, so if you're a designer, or a design researcher, or a policy advocate you need to get good at relationships and stories.

Wise man…
Wise man in a sweater in his home library 📚 contemplating: I don't know what word in the English language --I can't find one-- applies to people who are willing to sacrifice the literal existence of organized human life so they can put a few more dollars into highly stuffed pockets. The word 'evil' doesn't even begin to approach it. ~Noam Chomsky

In this week’s newsletter I wrote about innovation, how so many tech products exist to solve problems created by other tech products, and how much I hate my Apple Watch.

Real, deep innovation is so much more than having a cool new idea no one's thought of, and then hyping that idea all the way to market. For every product release or feature update you have suffered through, I can promise there's at least one user researcher somewhere in the background begging people to listen to the fact that people don't want it, don't need it, aren't interested in it. That maybe what we should do is listen to the problem they're experiencing and understand it fully, so we can try to come up with a solution that actually fixes it, rather than one that kicks the problem down the worse or compounds it so we have to come up with another solution down the road.

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long.

They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

I love this diagram so much. People who've been stuck in The Inaccessibility Cycle before immediately get it, & people who haven't have an "Oh sh**" moment.

A circular diagram created by Pacing Pixie called The Inaccessibility Cycle. "Inaccessibility" leads to "disabled people unable to participate" leads to "disabled people not visible in public" leads to "disabled people seen as an outlier/rarity" leads to "so there's little/no need to consider them" leads back to "inaccessibility."
