Excited to launch the Actor Whitepaper site: whitepaper.actor – introducing Actors, a serverless programming model bringing UNIX philosophy to cloud computing.

Created at @apify, I crafted every aspect:
• Complete UI/UX design
• 3D illustrations & animations
• Full development in Astro
• Custom components

This demonstrates my design engineer approach: designing interfaces and bringing them to life through code.

Would you hire an architect who doesn't understand the difference between concrete and wood?

I've recently heard a lot about #designEngineering. About designers who code or software engineers who design. I think to be a good UX Designer you must also be a developer. You don't have to be a world class software engineer, but you do have to understand the material used to build your creations: code.

I've seen this article pass by a few times. Pretty good.
The one impression Tailwind has left me is that's it niche. A solution for a singular type of setup. Popular? Yes. How the web works? No. Will it stick? I don't see how.

Explosion testing!

Back in 2001 I work on a contract with gas fire manufacturer Robinson Willey in Liverpool.

This short video shows the explosion testing carried out on a newly designed glass fronted built-in gas fire.

I designed the coal bed and burner for this fire.

A very happy 10 months working there, great people although the CAD system (Radan RadDraft) was awful!
