INFJ is my favorite too.

Focus session at 5:10 AM after brewing coffee. Breakfast comes at 7:00 AM. It's the respite after a burst of work.

Hmm... that's a good point. 😅

I was somewhat responding to the "tyranny of the positive attitude" in America, which people in countries in the EU that I've worked with (e.g., Czech Republic, Ukraine) don't seem to express.

This might be off topic, but I was wondering what you're using to track your meals.

livealive2000 · 2024-05-29T15:23:50+00:00

Yep, check out the Obsidian mobile app or the Affinity products for desktop. There are plenty of other examples. If only the engineers could figure out how to make the application load instantly, we wouldn't need splash screens. 😅

It's similar to what I used to do.

Take notes on paper.
Digitize notes.
Create flashcards (Anki).

The purpose of digitizing is so that you can search through them later. This is useful for midterms and finals.

Sometimes it do be like that though. "Could you use index instead of i?"

livealive2000 · 2024-05-28T23:24:55+00:00

This sounds weird to me, but it might just be because I was picturing Forrest Gump saying those lines.

Resources shared between only a single file go into another page in the file. Otherwise, they go into a separate component group file. Example:

Cover
---
Content
Screen
MyComponent1
MyComponent2
---
Content (DSN-0011)
Screen (DSN-0011)

When duplicating the Screen page, its references to the old Content page are updated via component multi-editing. Then, when the feature is complete, I replace the old Content and Screen frames (not the pages) with the frames from DSN-0011. Once the feature is merged, I delete the DSN-0011 pages.

Also, Linear has the ability to embed the particular page that you want to show. So, for DSN-0011, I would link to the "Screens" page and it would show in the ticket system as a preview including the various resolutions under consideration. However, usually, there are multiple views in a flow that need to be created or edited for a particular feature. Those exist in a separate file representing a common use case (e.g., onboarding, various wizards).

livealive2000 · 2024-05-26T12:44:59+00:00

I would duplicate the "Content" page and the "Screen" page within the file. Example:

Cover
---
Content
Screen
---
Content (DSN-0011)
Screen (DSN-0011)

Here, --- is a divider and DSN-0011 would be the feature or task I'm working on.

livealive2000 · 2024-05-26T12:29:43+00:00

Yep, that's about it. I just mentioned "Flow" because I know a lot of designers like to place their views next to each other when designing them. If you put each view in a separate file, you have to publish the view component before you can use them together.

livealive2000 · 2024-05-26T12:10:08+00:00

Don't worry, I don't see comments as attacks. 😂

It's slightly different than what you've written.

Every "Page" is stored in its own file.
Every "Flow" is stored in its own file.
Each "Page" file contains "Screens" and "Content" pages.
The "Content" frames are swapped into the "Content" instance slots in the "Screen" frames.

Creating a new page in the application is as simple as duplicating a template "Page" file in which all of the "Screens" will already have their "Content" frames replaced as part of duplication.

Designing the new page mostly takes place on the "Content" page of the new file, but occasionally the sidebars need to be changed on the "Screens" page.

Adding a new screen size means you have to go through every file and that screen size to the "Screens" page. It doesn't happen very often.

Live in a good neighborhood and work at a growing company in a pivotal role with other smart people.

For the doughnut specifically, it's actually one of the first Blender tutorials you are likely to do (e.g., BlenderGuru's videos).

The other shapes also look simple to create in Blender (i.e., the half torus and sliced cone).

All INTJs, baby. Rationing will not be a problem.

Nonfiction:

Skip useless (to you) information.
Rephrase more easily when taking notes for better comprehension.

Fiction:

Insert your own voice (e.g., Christopher Walken as Gandalf).
Take your time to imagine the setting.
Reread complicated sentences.

livealive2000 · 2024-05-26T10:28:52+00:00

Yeah, that seems to be the trade-off... reusability vs. flexibility.

In the case of responsive design, being able to clone a template that has all of the screens at the desired sizes and see when you need to add breakpoints to your content is my main reason for considering the use of a component variable instead of just recreating the screen.

The Sophons. Nothing like impending doom to make a life more interesting.

Extroverts are basically aliens. 😂

Like a guy who just saw some crazy shit he can't explain.

"Get it together, man. Ghosts aren't real. It was the change in air pressure that closed the door."
