Alexander Russell

I published the eulogy I gave for my dad. he was a brick mason who believed that what you build with care should last generations. he applied that to everything: his work, his marriage, his family. miss you, dad. alexanderussell.com/logs/dads-eulo…

Design lead for Claude: The classic design process is dead. Here's what's replacing it. Jenny Wen (@jenny_wen) leads design for Claude at @AnthropicAI, was previously director of design at @Figma, and a designer at @Dropbox, @Square, and @Shopify. In our in-depth conversation, we discuss: 🔸 Why the classic discovery → mock → iterate design process is becoming obsolete 🔸 What a day in the life of a designer at Anthropic looks like, including her AI tool stack 🔸 Whether AI will eventually surpass humans in taste and judgment 🔸 Why Jenny left a director role at Figma to return to IC work 🔸 The three archetypes Jenny is hiring for now This conversation changed how I think about the future of design.

@okkshitij i'd love to try this out in beta

🚨 Our AI designer is now LIVE in Figma Our aim isn't to build a tool, but rather, provide a design partner. You give it a screen. It gives you: 1. Layout iterations - same data points, different layouts. 2. Instant critique - based on UX best practices, your context, and patterns 3. Alternative screens - not just what’s wrong, but what’s better Inside Figma. On your designs. Based on your context. After all, great work comes from iterations. P.S. I used AI to create the song, what do you think? Fun?

@ridd_design i'd love access!

@KLiess11 @HuskersGameday @TrevAlberts My guess is that he has been trying to solve it. He's done so much and speaks so clearly about where athletics are headed. Doesnt seem like a guy to air dirty laundry in public. He had enough and realized the only vote that would truly count would be if he voted with his feet.

@HuskersGameday It’s tough. @TrevAlberts is (was) a Nebraska guy. NU leadership has its faults, but wouldn’t he want to try & help be part of the solution? Maybe he did. I’d love to hear his side of it off the record, but without having all the details it just feels like he quit on the #Huskers

"I stuck my neck out (for Trev) yesterday at 9:30 only to get it whacked...I felt those things would be very important to Trev. The timing, the symbolism of leaving now and how it would undermine everything he's promoted in that Athletic department. Personally, as a friend, do you let him off the hook?" -Damon Benning youtube.com/watch?v=tBqbay…
