This week’s newsletter discusses Inclusive Design Communities, @SamKap’s great new primer, as well as @Shopify’s recent “calendar purge.” What does an inclusive workplace look and feel like?

Print Gocco came up during my screen printing phase, but then @acc_UX_Molly and I bought and failed to repair a vintage Riso and I never went back to it. This is fascinating work on how the Gocco works, and might be a path to easier home printing masters!

I documented some of my recent experiments in reverse-engineering the Print Gocco, a Japanese DIY printmaking tool from the 1970s. You can read about it here: nobadmemories.com/blog/2022/…

Trick question, you can't tell them apart, and the asker has their own expectations. UX isn't a field, it's an assortment of stolen practices from actual fields to paper over whatever dysfunctions an organization has, and everyone's "expertise" is biased by that.

Two people are claiming to be an expert in your field, one is and one is faking. What question do you ask to find the imposter?
