To draw a picture well, you must practice frequently. To write well, you need to write a lot. Quantity surpasses quality. In some cases, improved skills or methods are necessary for growth and development. However, anyone aiming to achieve remarkable progress can only do so through extensive training and repetition. Notably, learning a foreign language is more about training than studying. Without diligent practice in speaking aloud, you will struggle to progress beyond a certain level. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Design ethics is an essential field of study. You may wonder if ethics play a role in design, but they are crucial, particularly in terms of addiction. Slot machines, for example, are four times more addictive than other gambling games. This heightened addiction is mainly due to the variable rewards these games provide. Some designers view this addiction as a means to increase profits. A classic example is a screen with an infinite scroll function, which can lead to excessive time consumption. This occurs because the game’s rewards are unpredictable, and some designers tie this addiction directly to revenue generation. Therefore, ethical considerations are vital across all domains. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
