[BLOG] I have to admit: A product manager told me they were "excited for the security review". Yes, excited.
First, I thought I misheard something. But then I realized: This wasn’t about the review itself, it was about the way that we do this in our team.

I plan to share more insights on research that influences my daily work as a Usable Security Consultant at a large company (>45M customers).
Is this the kind of content you find valuable? Let me know (over here or on my other channels). Your feedback will be much appreciated.

Exciting news! 🤖✨ We just published our new paper on co-designing a modular, low-cost, open-source smart mirror tailored for people living with dementia and their carers! 🧠💙
Instead of adding tech that causes anxiety, we built assistive support directly behind a familiar household item. 🪞🏡
Check out the full thread below to see how we did it! 👇

OutDesign is already available in a somewhat beta version, yes. In fact, you can have a look at the thread @BertrandCaron quoted in his original post to get access.
I would love to know more about this mixed policy, between formats and conservation, if you agree!
It happens that I spend most of my time at the BnF those days. I'm currently wrapping up my Ph.D. dissertation in #HCI about publishing and file formats. If you are on the Mitterand site as well, maybe we could grab coffee?

EDIT-2: I've been made aware of claims, that the video and the "creators" site might be AI generated. Watch at your own discretion, but keep the caveat in mind. Anyway:
This is one of the best talks on user interface design and human computer interaction I've seen in a long time:

#GUCAC negation and its uses.
Negation is proposed metadata for indicating the complement of a term's meaning.
GUCAC forms thoughts from inside to outside. The first four stages of thought formation are Creation, Description, Articulation and Specialization. These stages correspond to the four layers of a glyph. An optional fifth stage is negation which corresponds to unplugging the hub.
Negation comes last because positive logic tends to be less confusing than negative logic. Thus ideas are first constructed of positive thoughts and then revealed to be false and disbelieved as needed.
The hub is the triangle and circle in the center of the glyph as shown in this diagram.
Terminology and Graphic Conventions
The line segments (elements) within a glyph are further classified as radial spokes or circumferential laths in inner or outer layers, and are aligned in eight distinct directions (octants). Within each layer the elements are also grouped on either the right or left side. The central circle (hub, not an element) is positive or true when filled (plugged, the triangular plug is an element) and negative or false when empty (unplugged). These classifications are used to provide a symbolic superstructure which help a viewer to associate the state of the glyph (aspect) with its meaning (term).The hub is always printed. This provides a reference for the placement of the other elements. Without a hub it is difficult to tell if a single spoke is above or below the center and whether it is an inner or outer spoke. The plug within the hub is a triangle that 'points' to the left. This is intended to show the orientation of a glyph (in case it is viewed upside down). The triangle points to the 'beginning' (the left inner spokes) of a glyph.
More, less, major, minor, active and passive (Yang and Yin) are common principals across the mental, social and physical realms. By tying these binary principals to the classifications described above, we hope to associate a glyph's aspect with an engram of an individual's experience and thereby imbue it with meaning.

Не панацея, а инструмент — когда бизнесу стоит переходить на HCI, а когда лучше воздержаться
Когда компания планирует инфраструктуру для виртуализации — например, в рамках создания новой площадки, решения задачи по замене устаревшего железа или по какой-либо другой причине — рано или поздно встает вопрос архитектуры. Что это будет — классическая схема с выделенным хранилищем, конвергентная или гиперконвергентная? Ведь у каждой из них свои сильные сценарии и свои ограничения. В этой статье разберем, из чего складывается реальная экономика гиперконвергенции, какие сценарии она закрывает действительно хорошо, а какие лучше оставить классической схеме. И отдельно расскажем, как с гиперконвергенцией работает VMmanager.

[BLOG] I spent a year developing usable security for apps reaching 45M users in Germany. The outcome? Faster product delivery, lower friction, and lowered costs by six figures.

“Look at the abilities people have and build on them.” 💡
At the RC Trust Graduate School, Laurianne Sitbon discussed how inclusive co-design can support self-expression for people with intellectual disability – through images, emojis, robots and smart technologies.

Wrote a little blog post about my attempts at making creative tech, making things because we can, and imagining a future where that is more common, than it consuming us : https://blog.nicoleta.cc/creative-tech-sagamaking-a-programmable-led-skirt/
May or may not include some lower-intermediate Lindy Hop dancing too.
If you work in/with new media, interactive technologies, human-computer interaction, or as a creative technologist, and would like to spare some time for a chat, it would really help me out :)

Join us as we conclude DIS 2026 by reflecting on the future of design!
What do we mean by “interactive” in Designing Interactive Systems?
In this Closing Keynote Panel, Patrick Jean, Berny Tan, William Odom, and Kristina “Kia” Höök will reflect on what the “I” in DIS invites us to rethink across design practice, methods, and education.Bios and more: https://dis.acm.org/2026/keynote-speakers/

I think drag-and-drop as a #UX mechanism has a second-class feel. Both in implementation, like it's not designed to be the best way to do anything, and in attitude, like developers and designers don't want to support it.
I posit that tapping buttons is a cognitive drain that has unnecessarily taxed our #attention tremendously.
Alternatives have fallen short, but I believe I can do better.
