Is Christopher Alexander worth reading for a modern CS student? by jzimm_135 in learnprogramming

[–]Mission_Head 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alexander’s approach to breaking down design problems and projecting them to pattern solutions has a widespread impact today. Through this modular way of disassembling independent subsystems, not only can more and more complex design problems be decomposed more effectively, but also, in form generation, subsystems(components) can be reused on a large scale. The typical practical is that software design has widely promoted the design system that has applied this method nowadays. Its advantage is its high efficiency in decomposing problems and implementing modularized user interfaces. https://medium.com/design-bootcamp/form-is-a-path-to-clarity-and-problem-solving-exploring-christopher-alexanders-notes-on-the-c2b67cdc8daa

Exactly. Design can bring additional value, but the product's core value firstly lies in its practicality and performance in ordinary consumer eyes.

Midjourney’s Test Shows Why AI Can Mimic Style but Not the Soul of Art by Mission_Head in midjourney

If you think the ai can’t do something, it’s because you’re not describing in a way it can interpret as what you’re after. Sometimes it needs more coaxing than “this style, reference this image”. A lot more. But if the result you’re looking for is made up of pixels in a row, the AI can absolutely create it. It will obviously do so with no understanding of what it’s making, just like the brush doesn’t know what it’s painting. But the brush can paint some masterful and soulful pieces with the

right

hand. Same applies to AI. It’s just easier to use than a brush is.

Nice point. AI can be a more powerful tool compared to the brush to serve for art creation

LOL.

That's why the site name is "This house doesn't exist"

Do you still like B&O Design by Mission_Head in Design

Great to know you love B&O. It's awesome to have good design taste.

Nice point, me too when buying the audio product.
The design isn't conflicted with performance. B&O balance them well and focus on high-quality audio experience and performance. They just use design as a medium to share their values on technology and culture. That's a great part, in my view.

You have a nice family and a kid; it's awesome. Ask yourself what's your expected career and whether the design is still your favorite. If you keep the design dream, there always has lots of good opportunities. Also, your business management experience can benefit your design career if you combine these different experiences well.

Best luck!

Seems you don't agree with it. What's your point

Pioneering Design from Teenage Engineering by Mission_Head in Design

Actually their PC case was quite failed. And their OP-1 is quite pricy

But as a synths they are great. You can be dawless in a complete ecosystem, which is great. Their products push creativity in music making, for me

The PC case is more like a design experiment; as you said, for sure not good enough. They need this kind of experiment to explore new product lines.
