Your inability to grasp science is not a valid argument against it.

"Operate in entrepreneurial environments where your ability to stitch insights will be valued" This is key
Replying to @keylimepie2000
Struggled with ADHD throughout my 20s. Until I figured that the only way out is forward. You cannot fight the fundamental biochemical nature of your condition. So read wisely, share widely, be exacting in your alliances, and surround yourself with self with people who complement you. Don’t take on tasks with deadlines, choose challenges that require leaps but always share execution with others. Operate in entrepreneurial environments where your ability to stitch insights will be valued. Forgive yourself. last one is important.

When you ask for feedback, try this: "We already know a lot that needs to be better. Your feedback will really help clarify things." It gives them permission to tell you what's wrong without worrying about hurt feelings. #ux #feedback #startups

Use the Oxford comma, folks.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is a digitally altered image. AM archive of the original magazine cover from the now defunct website of Tails Inc magazine is here: web.archive.org/web/2011040203… It’s not clear from the post that the photoshopped cover is meant to be satirical or ironic.

Do you think maybe the whole Discovery incident could have been avoided if HAL9000 just had a better UI than a menacing red lens? #UX #design #AI

Question authority. No idea is true just because someone says so. Test ideas by the evidence gained from observation and experiment! If a favorite idea fails a well-designed test, it's wrong.

A prospective local customer (an AI Persona defined by zip code) told us (yeah, you can do that with Persimi) that opening a salon in a popular part of town might be a bad idea. It was popular, but with an older crowd. Other locations had a trendier vibe (and lower costs). #research #ux #customers #feedback

When you aren't sure how to get your business from here to there, your customers can tell you. Your challenge is in sussing out exactly what questions to ask of which customers, and in overcoming your (sometimes unknown) biases to actually hear their answers. Practice with AI personas at persimi.com and amaze yourself with just how many 'Aha!' moments you can generate with a little bit of time. #research #ux #ai #marketing

Spontaneous emotion in qualitative research is gold. The smiles mean you've made someone's life better. The frowns mean you can learn something important. Keep making your users' lives better. Keep learning. Use AI tools like Persimi to help. Never to replace. #ai #research #UX
Those little moments, when participants express a sense of relief, joy and even excitement. There is nothing more rewarding in our field than seeing work improve the lives of others. — Lo Wheelwright, Senior User Experience Designer

What’s the difference between a cat and a comma? One has claws at the end of its paws, and the other has a pause at the end of a clause. 🐱
