When we know the common, image-clicking type of Captcha adds friction for humans,
and anti-spam functions that run in the background can block spam just as effectively,
it gives rise to cynicism:"Have you tried clicking on all of the photos that contain traffic lights about it?"

That awkward feeling when you walk three kilometres from Travemünde ferry port to Lübeck-Travemünde Skandinavienkai train station to see the ferry you got out of like a hour ago just behind the bushes less than 500 metres away.
The panoramic path was beautiful, but it's gravel coverage was impossible for wheeled luggage.

Tomodashi's (@vga256) design philosophy so much resonates with my own, even if my reality/interests and having roots in different social & technological environments/communities sometimes still causes friction/confusion/dilution of principles — it's all a process, an ongoing dismantling & rebuilding, and the path has become more clear over the past 5-10 years... thi.ng plays a major part (and stepping stones) for me in that context and very much shares the same principles laid out further below.
https://tomodashi.com/philosophy
"The sub-Arctic regions of the Canadian Northwest Territories have many communities of fishers, hunters and trappers who live off the land with simple and effective tools. When technology breaks down in the north, there isn't a tech support number to call, or dealership or mechanic to take it to. You're on your own.
This encourages you to care for your tools, and make repairs using whatever knowledge and resources you have on hand. People who live on the land only take with them what they can maintain, upgrade and repair themselves. Big, complex, fragile, expensive, high-performance, high-maintenance stuff is left at drydock.
The elders of the far north teach us that these human-sized and human-shaped tools are extensions of who we are. To care for one's tools is to care for one's community, and oneself. These are not separate things.
That is the key to the Tomodashi design philosophy.
Principles
All Tomodashi software is crafted with these four related ideas in mind:
1. Human-sized things are friendlier, more economical, and easier to learn.
2. The user is both a creator of things and a playful being.
3. Let people personalize, modify, and repair their toys and tools.
4. Imperfect creations feel more human, serene and beautiful.When human qualities and self-expression become the focus of software engineering - whether it's a game or a programming tool or an IDE - all other arguments about programming and software design become moot"

Begging the questions: what are the limitations of #HumanCentredDesign, and how do we move to a #PlanetCentredDesign approach – without forgetting the needs of the user?

Your UX research has revealed that the project's design concept is a real STINKER. How do you break the bad news?

Anybody else out there using #Linux as their everyday driver for #UX and #UXresearch work? Having just got a 'new' (refurbished Dell) laptop I've installed #Ubuntu - which I've been using for years for home use. But with more or less *everything* now cloud-based or available on linux (e.g. Figma) I can't really see any reason why not? Most of my colleagues are on Macs, so it's always cross-platform anyhow.
Are there any key 'killer' applications (it used to be the Adobe suite, but I haven't used that in years) that you can't run in linux? Thoughts?(And before you ask - yes, I've used and very much appreciated, Linux Mint, Elementary OS, and other distros. I think they're all great.)

PLEASE WAIT FOR ASSISTANCE! Prof. Enrique Dans says that self-service checkouts are a **failure** (and he should know).
I STRONGLY agree with the learned Prof. I *hate* the wretched things and always go to a checkout with a real person when I can. Something *always* goes wrong with the self-service tills and then you have to call a real person for help, anyway. Doh!

@Old_IT_geek @wakehamAMR The system is DESIGNED to be punitive, rather than helpful. So many barriers are placed in the way of those who would seek help that they often give up even *trying* to access the services that they are entitled to.

Can we work towards a more sustainable web? As UX designers, developers, product owners, can we lessen our impact on our fragile planet? The** W3C Sustainable Web Design Community Group** thinks we that can and has put together a draft set of guidelines to help us do so.

Working with people for whom English is a second language? Some great tips here. I know I'm often guilty of (a) talking way too fast, and (b) in a very strong accent that only people from Norn Iron* can understand.
*For native English speakers, speaking English at work is a privilege. Your international colleagues have done a LOT of hard work to learn English, often to have better career opportunities at global companies. What they have done is extremely difficult and commendable.*
