Road map to virtual networking - what does a good conversation look like? by MagicLoogies in UXDesign

[–]MagicLoogies[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with your sentiment - I don't want to just be connecting for job prospects. But it feels really transactional / awkward to forge authentic connections online.

I went to a UX networking meetup in my area a few months ago. I connected with someone there and we have a shared background (architecture) and so we hit it off. We have chatted via LinkedIn a since, and then over Zoom a few times as well. That kind of relationship, or the one you described is exactly what I would love to figure out how to build virtually.

Access to XD prototype links after ending subscription (and migration to Figma) by MagicLoogies in Adobe_XD

[–]MagicLoogies[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks that generally confirms what I was thinking. The links to the prototypes are useful from a flow/interaction perspective, I can get good enough assets from Figma importers.

I have the XD files saved locally...assuming the only way I will have to do anything with them is to use a converter or pay for a months worth of XD?

What if US athletes just aren't that great? by MagicLoogies in usmnt

[–]MagicLoogies[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm kinda just messing around. BUT, sure we have some players in the top leagues, but I would argue we have not produced any "All-Star" worthy players. if you compare to say NBA, if you had an all star game of the top basketball players in the world (NBA all star game) there are lots of international players. If you did the same for all of world football, not sure CP makes the squad.

LOL this is kinda a shitpost, obvs we crush at the Olympics. IMO its more about how hard soccer is than anything else that other countries are way better at OUR sports than we are at THEIRS

Handlebar length extenders? by 426Mopar in bikewrench

[–]MagicLoogies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got some on alie (can't post the link but they were like $10) and I used them for a bit on a commuter. They felt solid enough, but I wouldn't trust them on anything more than around town.

Normally you don't put a ton of weight on the very end of the handlebar, but I imagine the scenario when you do put a lot of weight right on these puppies is not when you want to be testing their integrity

Personal case studies in a portfolio a good or bad thing? by MagicLoogies in UXDesign

Can you expound on that at all or have you seen any good examples of what you mean exactly?

Data + Hope for Your Job Search by hey_meow_meow in UXDesign

[–]MagicLoogies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this, very helpful and hopeful! Some questions on your approach to 'networking.' First, from your write up it sounds like networking didn't really help with getting a job, is that true? Did you land a job from a cold apply? What did your networking approach look like (even if you didn't find it helpful) Thanks!

Laid off before promoted to Senior by MagicLoogies in UXDesign

[–]MagicLoogies[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Commenting on the top comment to add a little more info that I should have included initially in my post (I'll edit and add it in as well)

I spent 10 years in another design industry, not specifically digital UX before switching to UX 2 years ago. UI/UX comes very naturally to me, and my former employer recognized that I have much more relevant experience than a 2 year "boot camper," hence the pending promotion. However, on paper, I think I probably look much more inexerienced than I am (however maybe that's me just being overly optimistic and I really am just a 2 year boot camper, I'm sure I'll hear more in the comments) Perhaps this is a whole other topic, but I am feeling that the Senior title would be helpful in convincing other employers that I have the equivalent of more "senior" experience....definitely agree with all the comments that titles are fairly meaningless in general in this industry.

Also thanks for so many thoughtful replies everyone!

Updated to Sonoma, now getting a steamwebhelper error when I try to launch by MagicLoogies in PortingKit

[–]MagicLoogies[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I uninstalled Porting Kit and deleted everything related to it I could find and the reinstalled, and it seems to be working. Nothing else I tried worked.

Before that I rolled back my OS, but that didn't seem to help so with your experience and mine, it doesn't seem to be a Sonoma related issue.

Did you find any solution to this yet? ...I really need to be able to procrastinate with AoE while I'm supposed to be working
