A Day in the Life of an Ensh*ttificator

Digital products and services keep getting worse. In the new report Breaking Free: Pathways to a fair technological future, the Norwegian Consumer Council has delved into enshittification and how to resist it. The report shows how this phenomenon affects both consumers and society at large, but that it is possible to turn the tide.

63 Design Skills For Claude

63 Design Skills For Claude

63 structured markdown files that gives Claude deep, specific knowledge about various design domains. Super useful considering how many AI tools treat design as image generation. That’s never been what design is. “Design” is knowing when to run a heuristic evaluation instead of a usability test. It’s understanding that a design token isn’t just a hex code: it’s a decision about how a system scales. It’s writing a problem statement that’s specific enough to be useful and broad enough to leave room. The 63 design “skills” for Claude will help you fix that.

Images

Don’t rush to react, instead pause to respond

This image feels like a quiet roast of how we often approach design. The same dots start off innocent enough, then we panic, open Figma, add five components, three stakeholder opinions, and suddenly we have a tangled mess that no one fully understands. Yet, with a bit of patience and restraint, the chaos somehow turns into a neat little star, as if it was always meant to be there. It is a gentle reminder that good UX is less about doing more and more about not doing too much too quickly. Sometimes the most sophisticated move in design is simply to stop, breathe, and not make things worse.

Users always know what they want

Busting UX Myth

Users always know what they want

If users truly knew what they wanted, every first date would end in marriage, and no one would have ever regretted buying a treadmill. The truth is, users think they know what they want, but their actions often say otherwise.

Take the infamous example of the “faster horse” attributed to Henry Ford. If he had taken that request literally, we’d still be designing luxury saddles instead of self-driving cars. Instead of trusting every user request like gospel, watch what people actually do. Because, let’s be honest, if users really knew what they wanted, the “Undo” button wouldn’t be the most clicked button in every design tool.
