Ambiguous Constraints
I have a hunch design as a profession would go a lot farther if more designers embraced ambiguous constraints.

I saw this tweet yesterday and it has been in my head ever since.
This is a major problem I see in both new and mid-level designers. In new designers, I understand how ambiguous constraints and ambiguous goals could be problematic for them as they don’t have the experience to break a problem down or, more difficult, begin to see what the real problem is.
Building My Own 3D Printer
I have been using a Monoprice MPSelect Mini for four years as my main 3D printer. It is a great printer but has a very small print bed. One of the things I’d like to do is print larger objects to mix fashion design and interaction design, so, I’d like a 1m cube printer. However, those don’t exist and I knew I’d have to build it myself. Having no experience with “building” 3d printers, I decided to follow an online tutorial and create one from scratch.
@mtamaryland I’m running the half-marathon this year and taking the metro. Please don’t let what happened last time to me happen again. https://www.baltimoresun.com/opinion/op-ed/bs-ed-op-1025-running-festival-20191024-hkcsfonxrvd3vibjhufprnjcxe-story.html
