Getting really good at communication is probably one of the most important skills a designer can have, right up there with craft and taste. A lot of designers struggle with it (me included), mostly because our work tends to focus so much on those other two.

Why should I have to pay a monthly fee just to stream media from my own server, to my own TV, over my own internet? Insane. What are some good open-source alternatives to Plex? Also why am I getting 0 days notice? I was given no time to prepare.

I'm so ready, like 08 Satoshi with OpenOffice Writer 2.4.

Why does my best design inspiration always show up right when the birds start chirping? I really like the time between 1 and 5 am. There’s something about it that just feels right. As soon as the sun starts to rise, my brain tells me it’s time to go to bed.
