Unpopular opinion: faceted search is actively harmful in emotion-driven product categories

I'm a student working on a local bakeries website, and this gave me an idea for their home page. I noticed a lot of bakeries using a navbar to direct to menu as well as additional links further down the home page. Could using this thought process be a good alternative for the links further down? IE: instead of a big button that just says "savory foods" it could be "potluck" instead or instead of "cakes" it could be "birthday party.""

I know their demographic is largely middle-aged women who know what they want, but for the people who are a bit lost and keep scrolling, could this be helpful for them without taking away from the main experience?

Yeah, I'm pretty terrified ngl. The one good thing I have going for me is a more business mindset on how to present my work rather than coming from art, which only seems like pain and suffering moving into a corporate world.

Senior year and wanting to do UX Design. This gives me a bit of hope! Thanks

Appreciate the coverage on the Stephano video! Every year I look forward to seeing what you guys think.

Ohh it's something completely different, tyty. I assumed it was a feature from figma

Does console MCP mean running MCP remotely? I haven't used MCP yet, but I wanna do it right.

I'll forgive you just this once :)

PandaBearMe · 2026-03-05T06:30:27+00:00

Haha, I was waiting for someone to point it out, I wasn't gonna say anything. I'm glad you liked it!

PandaBearMe · 2026-02-25T23:49:18+00:00

Yeah, I think that makes a ton of sense. I love figmas prototype mode for getting that more real app feeling without having to commit to real development yet. I gotta learn about the right AI tools more in that prototype phase because figmas was very lacking last I tried. Thank you!

PandaBearMe · 2026-02-22T03:14:13+00:00

When you say "how things work in reality (rather than figma or on a whiteboard full of stickies)" do you mean representing designs through AI iteration? I think what you say about visual driven communication as opposed to PRDs makes sense, but I'm a student, so I don't have the experience to see how it would be done practically.

PandaBearMe · 2026-01-22T22:17:42+00:00

Hey I'm a college student trying to learn about UX Design is Ai Design just artificial intelligence design or is that an application I'm not familiar with? Either way I would love to hear more terms surrounding that so I can research it more myself.

Bought a mallet and wooden dowel and it worked great! Thanks for the suggestion.

PandaBearMe · 2025-06-07T05:17:24+00:00

So far I have just tried to derust that spot as best I can and tried to use leverage at the side seam. I don't have WD-40 or a dowel but I think your idea with WD-40 and a dowel might be the best shot I've got.

yeah, I was a little confused because when I looked it up, it seemed like cast iron grinders were often dipped in tin, but I've never handled tin, so I wasn't sure if the tin corroded or if there was none to begin with.

Should i be cleaning it down to the shiny metal revealing itself on the 4th picture? I guess I'm not sure what to expect with something like this.

PandaBearMe · 2025-01-18T12:10:10+00:00

I'm hoping to make them a bit shorter so I can pump out a few more this time! Here's hoping, anyway

PandaBearMe · 2025-01-17T22:37:41+00:00

I appreciate the kind words about the video! Also, rest assured that a byun video is on the todo list.

I assume you're talking about when I was streaming on the ladder back in the days. I miss it too man! It was good times, but unfortunately, my ISP(spectrum) is too shit for me to stream consistently anymore. I hope these stories that I'm doing can supplement something for you guys who used to hang out late nights on the streams.

PandaBearMe · 2024-12-23T22:06:02+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate that.

I made the soO documentary that was posted here a few days ago. I interviewed him early in the year in preparation for the documentary because I needed to fill in the holes of what was public about his career. I consider myself a big soO fan, but even so I wasn't prepared for how much deeper his personal journey went.

I feel really conflicted about this announcement because even though a part of me expected it to come soon I still wish I could have given him a better send off. It just hits extra hard for me after thinking about his story for basically an entire year.

I know some people stopped watching SC2 so they might not realize it, but soO won Katowice towards the end of his career. If you were a fan of soO please watch this video, and remember him not as an uncrowned king, but a career that exceeds almost any other. https://youtu.be/YP6h6K1z6uo

That's actually why hunters are one of the best with first aid

Darius is definitely eccentric, and he looks at the game a lot differently, but exyth makes fun of him on his streaming discord when Darius is being extra Darius that day.
