I love when my yellow hibiscus bloom orange in autumn.

Over the weekend, I stumbled upon a 2017 hard copy deck I created that has good thinking on AI in conversational design that's relevant today.

Now I'm on the hunt for the digital copy.

Puttanesca is seldom in stores and expensive when you do find it. So I made my own.

Yesterday’s rain is helping the late summer blooms on my patio!

@adobe.com why does intrusive #UI on PDF open for an AI activity I won't know if I immediately need?

And why does it take clicks into two areas to get it out of the way? The AI assist is visually prominent in navigation. There's no missing it, so likely not as much need to force UI as you think.

I know I should deadhead the mint blossoms, but this makes me too happy.

When it’s possible that you’ve been to more than a few @wearejames.bsky.social shows…

See you in Chicago in September!!

Agree! It's the easiest way to get from SF to the East Bay -- we need more, not less.

Here's one of my experiences on the London Underground, about 1 a.m. on a Sunday. So scary... 😉

It's been 8 years since I first posted this. It's still true, only now delivered to algorithmically challenged audiences and enfeebled institutions unable to deal with volume and velocity.

Corgis are lovely but as pure breed, a tad elite. Biden would have won narrowly with them.

Now, a scrappy rescue... that would have ensured a landslide.
