"Oh Chris! I think I'm talking too much" :D I love Vitaly. I could listen to him all day.

[@perderlaprisa]

stop uploading so many interesting content i can't keep up with it 😭

[@corgikun2579]

Try listening at 2X (sometimes even faster) and also skim the video, listen for a few minutes and decide if moving forward or keep listening. Also, try skimming the transcript and if something is interesting then listen to it in the video. It's hard to keep up with watching every new video that is out. BONUS TIP: Play the video while doing house chores

[@thefutur]

sorry. not sorry. ;)

[@dsterry74]

Me too! My KZbin feed is Chris Do, workout videos and news... In that order 😂 If I'm not watching his videos I am reading books he and his guests recommend.

[@dsterry74]

​@@thefuturKeep'em coming Chris. You're learning me a lot of good stuffs.

[@user-lt1gt3qu4v]

Exactly 💯

[@leadgenjay]

This video provides great insights into UX design. One thing to remember is that user testing is key; even small, informal sessions can reveal critical usability issues before launch. It's all about understanding and solving real user problems. Good talk

[@iamthekaverik]

thanks for the highlight

[@bluecheckmiya]

This is a fascinating podcast episode. You never hear these kinds of perspectives on these things

[@prajyotkadam4715]

43:12 I was amazed how a Vitaly being one of the web design maestro still does not know about Audio only feature on KZbin or Amazon's initiative to deliver products in one package where there is no urgency. This shows how focus Vitaly is in what he does primarily. This tells me we DON'T HAVE TO know everything and still be good at what we are doing. 👌

[@plantsrealm]

SmashMagazine is golden. And Vitaly's insights on accessibility (I'm looking at you accordions) and his innate curiosity about ux/ui... truly amazing! Thank you for this interview!!!

[@thefutur]

my pleasure

[@agustina0110]

Wow! I need to listen this again 😍

[@MaxisArtes]

I remember devouring smashing magazine growing up. Thank you thefutur for such great content! Please keep up the good work.

[@iamthekaverik]

weird question. what is smashing magazine

[@dyegosevero]

webmasters blog

[@krupalvithlani]

I was waiting for Vitaly for so long 🎉

[@shauncogginsinc7997]

Vitaly is legit. Attended SmashMagazine Conference in Oxford England setup by Vitaly. He is and still way ahead of us in Web Design.

[@des7638]

hahah!! Love his sense of humor. so good.

[@cabaprojects]

Tgank you for another amazing master Class, we appreciate you

[@thefutur]

You are very welcome

[@get_online_romania]

I would love Vitaly as a mentor, great talk❤

[@SimracingArnout]

This conversation doesn't spark my interest a whole lot. But the content ideas that I'm having because of listening to this is amazing.

[@andtheeknee]

Smashing Mag is as OG as it gets

[@lilou8711]

Super intéressant

[@iamthekaverik]

oui oui

[@ServandesPL]

40:32 Audio-only for videos on KZbin has been available on YT Plus for months now. Additionally, the initial idea of having a search bar directly display the results is already there, but mostly on news websites that charge for their services. This is likely because this type of search is more complex to perform, resulting in a thicker $$$ electricity bill. I think the video shows why designers should collaborate closely with engineers to devise ideal solutions for different scenarios and current technologies( We don't have supercharged servers yet, and the LLMs cost big bucks , and therefore, we see the "common sense" ideas being implemented at a snail's pace.).

[@davetindell4110]

My web design clients throw a fit over ANY typo or mistype. The speaker's experience here is very rare. Most people aren't cognizant of the difference between ai text and human.

[@iamthekaverik]

so... should we deliberately throw typos in there?

[@lorraine.-.]

@@iamthekaverikI could never! lol I HATE typos, I will read all documents backwards just to find them 😂 I will give AI a run for its money!

[@Sonicsx23]

Nice to see someone with the same name as mine in the US Web Design niche 😂

[@iamthekaverik]

the world is both bigger and smaller than we think

Dear Vitaly Friedman with Jewish roots) Totally. Have a nice Friday)

[@benvanson2301]

I want to join the website club where can I join? 😂!!! the joke is that I’m serious.

[@rukhairy]

It's been a while since I listen to regular speed podcast that sounds like 1.25x

[@iamthekaverik]

me listening at 1.5x: 👀👀👀👀

[@samirelzein1095]

Like, just bc he s crazy. I see you laughing Vitali!

[@VishalKumar98638]

I can work for you.

[@iamthekaverik]

pitch with a mockup. more convincing

[@SanjayTPlays]

Could I please join Friday night WebClub?

[@japmandeepkaurg]

32:29 Hey does anyone know what exactly theyre talking about here or any article about it? (The indian government stuff 😅)

[@pointblankeloquence9578]

AI is the machine part of the ghost in the machine of the dark side. Evil is real. The technology is their realm. But God is the Supreme designer. We’re hardwired to see His hand in everything. When He’s absent it’s glaringly so despite all other decorum. The more people use the AI techniques the less valuable they become. So the better thing to do is maximize your personal spiritual value, to offer the best qualities possible.

[@thomasanderson2551]

Machine learning that uses algorithms isn't a ghost in a machine. It's the result of intelligent and industrious people who worked unbelievably hard for many years. Your use of AI doesn't diminish the value of your offer either. What matters is the quality of your product or service. You aren't the customer. The customer determines the subjective value at which he or she places upon your product or service. The glorious thing about the market and competition is our beliefs are taken out it and only good products and services remain. Ascertain a little wisdom, and don't inject your beliefs into business friend. Comments like that are intellectually disingenuous, and even potentially harmful to another's career.

[@pointblankeloquence9578]

@@thomasanderson2551 as we see with “Go woke go broke” your values and beliefs are at the core of any enterprise. Commerce is a cultural phenomenon that can build or destroy your life. Rarity is what drives value, and money can buy anything but principled quality people. I have tried using ai at work but I always mark it as such, and it never had the effect of work I’ve done myself. It’s only good for sketching out ideas.

[@thomasanderson2551]

​@@pointblankeloquence9578 I think we're having a misunderstanding, friend. Yes, values and beliefs are at the core of a successful enterprise. No doubt. When I mentioned not injecting beliefs into business, I was talking about you in particular and your comment. Generally, people who hold a value or a belief can give a logical line of reasoning as to why. If someone swears to never touch a substance because a relative was hurt by it, that's a belief or a value. That's a relatable, logical line of thinking. What isn't logical is a comment a bit astray from reality about AI, evil, ghosts in machines, and then several unfounded, totally random business operations dictates afterward. I'm glad you tried to use AI at work yourself. That's great man. I don't really want to go into addressing woke stuff because that's a very long discussion, but just realize that the market deals with that accordingly. There's a good reason the go woke go broke concept exists, it's because if you inject personal beliefs the market doesn't approve like I said earlier, straight into a business, the market will make sure to let you know, and boy has it over the past few years.

[@cassidyfraser6407]

YES & amen
