👋 i’d love to do a speaking opportunity or two in 2025… but i always find out about these *after* they happen. lmk if you’re organizing anything coming up and looking for speakers!

The casualness with which people are scheduling meetings for next week as if we're not going to be in a fugue state for multiple days just trying to survive is alarming to me.

the blue vanilla tootsies dont get nearly enough love imo

why is deep linking so broken i've literally never wanted to open the app store after tapping on something

I'm biased but @figma Visual search still saves me hours every day and you should try it!

@helenajar @figma We're adding this soon! (Like, next week probs.)

@kly_cl chronic work-induced fatigue 🫠

how is it that we are too lonely as a society but also too busy to ever meet up for dinner at the same time make it make sense

@vincentmvdm We tend to use beats to map UX out as well, from a writing POV. Not necessarily a formal structure, but just a quick way to consider how pieces of a flow fit together, narratively.

what are (design) tools that people in tech don't know but have cool features or ui patterns? e.g. i recently learned about the screenwriting software final draft. writers start with "beats" (moments, events), turn those into outlines using a sick editor, and then start writing

@luiskamino @JasperWillemsen @figma Thanks for the bump @luiskamino - following up with the team today.

@JasperWillemsen @imryanreid @figma Any news on that full screen prob? I just started "converting" a deck to Slides but realized when sharing full screen, it's tiny and there's no option to "fill screen" like there is on prototypes. This is a dealbreaker and I'll have to stop the experiment. Weird even for a beta.

For those of you who have tried @figma Slides, how’s it feel so far? What’s rad, what’s sad? What might you like to see next? We know there’s plenty left to do, but would love to hear what’s top of mind for y’all 🛝

An update on the Figma AI Make Designs feature: After learning about an issue with the underlying design system we made for it, we disabled the feature to fix the issue and review what we could have done better. Here is our retro: figma.com/blog/inside-fi…

heyyyy it me do i know what im talking about? nope, but that's kinda the point. give my #config2024 talk a watch and lmk if it helps you feel slightly less anxious—i'll count that as a win. youtube.com/watch?v=SXdoII…
