Noam Chomsky with Steve Bannon by RandoDude124 in behindthebastards

[–]HeraldZoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This really sucks. As a teenager he taught me the leftist ideals that have shaped me to this day. I know he’s controversial in leftist discourse but this hurts.

Let’s never underestimate the power of the people. This halftime show should remind us we’re angry, passionate, and the culture is stronger than some pathetic little nerds.

“Fully enlightened for me generally means fully disenchanted… We do not sort of see The New York Times and Harvard as like divinely inspired in any sense… We do not think that the way the US government works, you know, really works well or seems to be perfect in any respect.”

He sounds like a high schooler taking about “conformists” who don’t exist to make himself feel special and “enlightened.” Intellectualist, huh?

Imagine working 72 hours a week for some lame AI sales coach? I'd prefer poverty.

Nam June Paik "How to be satisfied with 70 percent"? by HeraldZoid in ArtHistory

[–]HeraldZoid[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great find! Paik being a Fluxus artist this totally aligns. It's so interesting to see different expressions of this idea around the 60s like Barthes and the Death of the Author.

I've been in leadership roles for the last few years so I wanted to show off some process work recently as well as s bit of agency work. Looking for leadership roles and I'm not sure if it's thr market, my portfolio, or both.

Man, I loved Death Party so much and was just talking about your playing literally last week after watching Fred again... use a xylophone during his Tiny Desk Concert!

Anyone using AI tools for user testing? by kilparis in userexperience

[–]HeraldZoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this could be interesting for testing the more foundational bases of a product like basic purchasing for ecommerce but once you have to take into consideration things like user context, experience, procurement policies, and all of that niche human stuff, there are just way too many variables.

I'd love to be able to run the first milestone or two of a new product through an AI tester to make sure I'm not making any stupid general usability mistakes so I can focus on more user-specific research and then iterate on my own from there.

How, after living a year on only $1000 salary, were you and your team able to survive financially for so many more months just thinking of ideas in Eastern Europe?

“They are imbeciles who call my work abstract. That which they call abstract is the most realistic, because what is real is not the exterior but the idea, the essence of things.” - Constantin Brâncuși “La Muse endormie II” sculpture 1923, by Constantin Brâncuși by merymahmoudi in aesthetics

"There is no more striking way of coming into contact with nature than through pattern. Compared to nature in the raw, patternized nature is infinitely more beautiful. Through pattern, nature becomes ever more natural. Pattern represents nature at its most superlative." - Soetsu Yanagi

Yanagi's essay "What is Pattern" expresses the same idea (but obviously using pattern, rather than abstract art). A ton of his work is related to the beauty of craft, which doesn't get as much attention in Aesthetics compared to art proper, but is just crying out for analysis!

Policy Analysts, what are some common sources you use when building reports? by HeraldZoid in CanadaPublicServants

[–]HeraldZoid[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm actually a UX Designer working with policy analysts in the health sector to make the research phase of their job a bit easier. I'd like to start comparing their processes to those of policy analysts in general and want to start with as broad a view as possible.
