There are going to be some changes going on around here, so don’t get used to anything…<\/p>\n

Following the creation of my new website<\/a>, I have decided that I’m gonna make some changes to the look of my blog. They’ll come slowly, but surely. The most important thing is that if you do not like a change I have made, you must<\/b> let me know, for there is a deeper moral to this story:<\/p>\n

Often when designers, engineers, inventors, etc. make a creation, they are absolutely blind to the negative aspects of their systems. It is soooo<\/i> easy to get married to one of your ideas, which causes a honeymoon effect where you can see no wrong with it. The moment someone points out a fault in the system, one of two things happens:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The designer takes the criticism personally, and is upset by the critic<\/li>\n
  2. The designer realizes the critic is right, and quickly reiterates the design of the system so that it fixes the faults.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I hope to be this second type of designer. If you don’t like something, call me on it. If I get enough complaints, or I agree with the original comment, I will<\/b> make changes. Critics are often too polite in their assessments, I ask you not to be so. <\/p>\n

    For starters, what do you think of the new background color, off to the sides of the screen? Critique me! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
