Thanks! I really want to get back to recording those sessions but it's so hard to get up and running.
I've had then sporadically but never had an idea what got me into them.

My friend Jeff, a designer, had a great blog post about this.

I spent the last four years doing web development while on playing drums in multiple touring bands. I got to travel abroad for free, and meet great people through it.

Unfortunately I remember very little of this time because I was taking on freelance projects to make side money and using mobile broadband to work in the van. It was incredibly stressful and one of the worst ideas. Multitasking the two jobs just burned me out quicker.

I wish I had planned it all out better so I could actually enjoy it fully. If you're going to travel, make sure you have the time to actually experience it.

Thanks glibgil.

triangleman, I'm not sure why I was hellbanned. After 100+ days of lurking and a handful posts/comments, I decided today to start trying to start participating again. My comment history is pretty vanilla, with one random link that I don't remember even posting on the Uber article and didn't even make any sense in the context of the article.

Also, there was never a deleted offensive comment on my account, so I'm not sure why I would be hell-banned. Is there anything I can do to reverse this?

On Chrome v37, if you change the theme, the "Download Now" button breaks.

A lot of the UI elements are really great, especially the Views section.

I think that's a great approach, especially when handling a new client. The worst situation is landing a client who also personally designed or developed the last iteration of their website or app. They need to be dislodged from the work they've done and sometimes that takes kid gloves.

Minihack works well, although the hit areas get a little wonky sometimes.
Re:Dear HN: Please don't start a response with the word "wrong." on Saturday October 05, 2013 @08:20AM (#6500456)
I'm dealing with that right now. Completely negating someone's opinion only shuts down communication. It's all in the phrasing and makes it sound like you are on different teams, especially in a work environment.

Ask HN: UX Books / Wait for revised/updated or buy now?

As a developer/designer, I'm trying to get a better understanding of UX design. To get started I wanted to dive into some books like "Don't Make Me Think" by Steve Krug and "The Design of Everyday Things" by Don Norman.When I checked on Amazon, I noticed that both of these books have a revised/updated versions coming out within the next two months. Does it make sense to wait and look towards...
