JUST IN: Palmer Luckey's genetically modified military dog startup, Warhound, comes out of stealth, aiming to create enhanced canines for the U.S. military.
Community note
This is NOT Palmer's company at all, his company Anduril is only supplying the tech for the dogs, and this is a wholly owed Collosal entiity

There's a cognitive bias called the Dunning-Kruger effect. The skills required to be truly great at an enterprise level are the exact same skills required to recognize what enterprise-level greatness looks like.
Trust me
The average designer in big companies are not good as you design wise. The only thing they have above you is their connection skills, they have people in their connection that refer them to opportunities .
I learnt this the hard way🫠

From the outside, a big company product might look simple compared to a flashy design. What you don't see on the surface is the systems thinking, cross-functional politics, accessibility compliance, edge-case handling, and data-backed trade-offs that went into every feature.

A lot of designers still haven’t realized how relevant our niche has become.
There’s never been a better time to be a designer, and America just validated that.
SECRETARY RUBIO on AMERICA.GOV: The point of all of this that we're doing here today, and this is simple, is to make the process more accessible and easier for Americans.

In dark mode, darker skin tones have often vanished against deep gray and black chat bubbles. When the silhouette disappears, so does the meaning.
Nobody should have to choose between using their actual skin tone and having their messages be legible.
To fix this across 3,977 characters, we paired an AI-powered contrast audit tool with hand-sculpted rim lighting to preserve rich tone and clarity on every screen.

I genuinely feel like we need LESS output from everyone right now. In every creative medium.
Quality is going down because of rushed work. People are burning out just to keep up. And no one even has time to engage with how much stuff is being made.

Created a Figma plugin that allows you to that drops realistic, context-aware mock data straight into your designs, no more Lorem Ipsum, no more “John Doe.”
Here's the link to try it out - figma.com/community/plugin/1…
Made this GIF for the launch 💚
