I’m going to geek out on this thread more than normal b/c new Science paper is WTF bananas awesome, and I don’t want it to get lost in the news cycle. In criminal justice policy, there’s a bad habit of solving problems by increasing punishment. science.sciencemag.org/content/early/… 1/

I finally had time to reflect on #TheSocialDilemma and as someone who has worked on tech policy issues throughout my career, had many, many thoughts. 🧵 (The following are entirely my personal views and don't in any way reflect those of my employers past or present.)

It is really important to remember form and function. Comic Sans has been shown in multiple studies (will thread below) to be a font that is better for for dyslexics. Comic Sans is generally available and accessible on many platforms for free.

So, not to be a wet blanket, but there's a viral video going around of a woman who repeatedly parks her car beside a gas pump with her gas cap on the opposite side of the car because she's confused. She does it, like, three or four times. (thread)

tech bros in code reviews foam at the mouth about naming variables concisely and accurately but in any discussion about exclusionary language pull out the "they're just WORDS who CARES"

This is how I, a 45-year-old white woman and mother of 6, currently at her peak Karen power, went from assuming police work was a necessary part of functional communities, to becoming a passionate advocate for #abolishthepolice #defundthepolice, over the course of one week. 1/x

The "everyone is a designer" debate hits a nerve for designers, because: - we are used to feeling undervalued in tech settings ("non-technical") - we are paid less than "technical" employees - a lot of people still think we spend our time choosing colours and making logos

Designer 1: Hey, I put this little... thing in. What do you think? Designer 2: OMG that's delightful! Designer 1: I know right? So delightful. Designer 2: YOU'RE delightful. Designer 1: No YOU! YOU'RE delightful. User: What fresh fucking arse candy is this?

Wow! I’ve always believed uppercase was harder to read. Interesting!

HOT TAKE Learning to code as a designer doesn’t make you a better designer and you don’t have to actively contribute code even if you do know how to. But what it does do is make you a better team member and allow you to communicate much better with other people, not just devs.

In November 2017, I created an openly editable spreadsheet of tech ethics curricula. Now it has almost 200 courses listed, and I've blogged some context. Continue to spread the words, and let's make it an even better resource! medium.com/@cfiesler/tech…
