Over 30 million blood pressure measures have been measured in Simple. Big milestone. One of our designers @jamiecarter7 wrote about it.

Founder Therapy, episode 2.
Most founder content is tactics. Most of what decides whether you make it happens in your head.
This time: @dburka. Ran design at Digg, two exits, five years at Google Ventures. Then he left it all to work on world's biggest problems. 👇
I did a very unusual podcast interview last week — Alen Faljic interviews founders 'on the couch' to talk about what it's like to be a founder and to discuss your biggest fears. youtube.com/watch?v=vXBFQQ0O…
Just made a huge upgrade to hardproblems.com — your feedback would be appreciated. 🙏
I added 30 new jobs for designers, copywriters, and PMs who want to work on health, climate, education, and public services to the Hard Problems job board today: hardproblems.com/jobs
We recently added a job board to Hard Problems, which has great design jobs related to health, climate, and education all around the world. I think it's already one of the best job boards around for designers who want to make a positive impact. Please RT. hardproblems.com/jobs

Grateful the broader design world has adopted my groundbreaking work for hyperlinks - blue underline and blue hue for text - it just felt right.

For the design community to truly flourish here, we must move beyond chasing speed, validation, or earnings. Design is a practice, an intentional pursuit. Instead of infatuating over something new, fast, or viral, ask if it’s thoughtful, inevitable, and true.
Do I know anyone at Intercom or a CRM tool developer who would talk to me about how customers manage call-lists of customers? Am working on this in the context of primary care patient management and could use advice.
We're hosting an online event on "Why public health experts need technologists" next Thursday. Please RSVP and RT. lu.ma/nqd3pagz
Who in London would be interested in a dinner for designers after Config on May 14? Would be great to gather for a meal. Reply or DM if you're keen.

I’m happy to share that @elycecole and I have founded a not-for-profit called Hard Problems to help tech people to find meaningful work on the hardest problems facing the world — challenges like public health, climate change, and good government.
We know the world is in a precarious place right now, and we don't have all the answers, but this is a small step to helping people team up to make a difference: learn more at hardproblems.com
Just pushed an update to Healthicons.org with great new icons for CPAP, IV, FHIR2, autoimmune disease, tumor, tissue, and much more!
I'm loving using "DO-ITS" notes by
@cameronmoll. They're simple, Post-It notes that you fill out each morning to focus on your key daily tasks. Very effective.
ALT My Do-It note from last Friday with some tasks listed.
