If someday, you want a career in technology or design, start doing projects. Now. Make something. Then something else. Repeat. The best way to learn is by doing. 1/

All the things I love about my job: IBM trusts me to spend $$ to make team happy, team decided how to spend $$, each participated in making final thing (highlights what we’re good at: multidisciplinary co-creation+creativity) & finished on tight time to support a teammate. Happy.

Today I sent out the first issue of my biweekly newsletter, where I aim to answer questions from readers as honestly and thoughtfully as I would in a 1:1 coffee chat. Top question for this week: What are common areas of weakness among junior designers? lilykonings.substack.com/p/i…

Our lab is launching a cooperative word game, where you and an AI model have fun playing guessing what each other is thinking, based on clues. Want to give it a try? Here's hpw: guessthewordgame.mybluemix.n… @zashktorab @casey_dugan @GraceNutcracker @_aabhas
