The silks of Como: A reminder of the value of craft

I miss this. Visiting a mill is such an enjoyable, often inspiring experience, yet I don’t do it as much as I used to. Perhaps because once you’d done one worsted weaver it’s hard to justify more.  But we’ve never done silk. I did go to Vann... > Read more

UX Roundup: Vigilance Fatigue | Adaptive Authoring | UI Clutter | Scenarios vs. Surveys for User Preferences | Measure Outcomes | Satisfaction vs. Expectations | Spotlight Features | Allow Paste

Asking users to watch AI carefully is doomed to failure | Adaptive authoring of content that changes depending on the reader | A cluttered experience kills user focus | To predict patients’ treatment preferences, discussing medical dilemmas beat both survey responses and the patients’ own spouses | Measure outcomes, not vanity metrics | User satisfaction depends on expectations | Spotlight the main features and keep specialized options backstage | Allow users to paste passwords | Ambient AI works in the background to proactively surface relevant information during meetings | Writers don’t know what to ask, so AI should speak first, softly | Information pollution: cheap to publish, expensive to read | Give users bigger images when they want to zoom to see details | Past work must have a name so it can be found
