I love cats, but I’m even more wildly allergic to them. I not allergic to horses and to sheep, and that’s about it. But it takes more than a wish to own either of those.

Haha! Exactly! I do some coding, too, but I can’t think like a UXer and a dev at the same time.
It’s the “making it pretty” part that makes me bitter. That is the LEAST part of what we do.
It’s like asking an architect to come in and fix the building after it’s already mostly built. Bad PMs insist on seeing us like interior decorators, but we are primarily architects.
Speaking as a UX designer, probably because some “product manager” decided it was too expensive to override the auto- sort that was applied before the designer was brought in to “pretty things up.”
There is no tone of bitterness in my comment, honestly there isn’t.
This is anecdotal, but I’ve loved animals my entire life. I was going to be a vet, but changed careers because my internship made me afraid it would ruin my love of animals.
I’ve had a very rough twenty years. I was married to a man who turned out was abusive to animals, so I gave up my dream of having pets. When I bucked my entire culture to divorce him, I fought my way back to enough financial security to own them again.
My first pet was 5 when I got him. I had three years of his endless health problems, but I loved him and he died. Then I got a couple of puppies and I love them, but…I don’t think I’ll own any more dogs. Dealing with other pet owners has been a nightmare. Off leash, poorly trained, outright dangerous dogs everywhere.
But even more to the point, I’m a terrible owner for them. I’m allergic, so I only play with them before my shower. And my mental health has me barely able to function some days. And I’ll never be able to own the property they need to truly flourish. They deserve better than me. So I agree. Poor mental health can be exacerbated by pet ownership.
This is exactly what I meant!
Thanks.
It is amazing how politics can be so affected by a border change.
Plants also react to being harmed, so it’s arguable they don’t feel pain.
Anyone who uses that term is immediately labeled an incel in my mind, and I block them.
@BaroquenRecorder i didn’t delete my account. I don’t know of any way to restore a deleted account.
No, some of my restored comments had been removed years ago because they were too identifying to leave out there, once the purpose of support was accomplished.
That’s what I used the first time. I was hoping manually deleting them this time would make it stick. Thanks, though.
Police don’t issue POs in any jurisdiction I know of. You have to go to court for that. Police can’t do more than ask them nicely to go away until you get a court issued PO signed by a judge.
The vast majority of evidence shows that people don’t tend to go around falsely accusing their loved ones of crimes just for kicks and giggles. Yet every abuse apologist loves to polish up that argument every single time.
I’m trying to give you the benefit of doubt, but you do realize that making these arguments in this way puts you squarely aligned with the most consistent group of murderers in the world, right?
“People are being hurt and terrorized, and need to be protected!”
“But we couldn’t possibly take away a few guns until we sort this out, because an entitled violent person’s right to have a gun is way more important than thousands of innocent murdered women and children, right!..Right?”
I think you’re getting temporary POs confused with permanent ones.
My ex and abuser was convicted of domestic violence charges, and currently owns a gun and has no public record of his crimes. This despite being anti gun and getting it for the sole purpose of scaring me. Proof has nothing to do with it. Courts regularly ignore proof in order to fail to protect victims. If they don’t accept criminal convictions as proof, there isn’t much they will accept. Don’t pretend this has anything to do with a need to prove that someone is a monster before taking away his deadly toys.
For what it is worth, our kids are still fighting to heal the damage he did to them. But he has a right to a gun, so bully for him.
My favorite has been the Deque training.
I wonder if you could automatically reverse generate a description using AI.
As a UX designer with a specialty in accessibility, I’d break up requirements even smaller. Accessibility is an ongoing process (like security,) not an achievement.
A dev can get pretty far just using Lighthouse to audit code, then running through with a free screen reader and with keyboard only. But accessibility can seem daunting if you try to make it one huge ticket.
The best way in my mind is to build basic accessibility testing into every ticket, the way you should do with security concerns, and then have a designer or QA run periodic audits to generate specific update tickets.

I did it, albeit a very small community. I cared enough about the topic to give other people dealing with similar things some space to build a community. Mine was luckily mostly dead, since I don’t care about building a base or keeping it going, but it served well for its time. Anyone who thinks modding is anything but a labor of love doesn’t make for a very good mod.

I’ll show myself out.
Agreed! You can make money and not be a donkey poop about it.
I’d believe that, if they weren’t already paying the architect salary to have us do interior design. They hire us, then shackle us.
