I've been working 15+ years as a UX developer, with varying results. From my experience, the best way to get developers and designers to work well together is to have frequent short demos/reviews (ideally weekly). That has helped

I did this back in 2014 with my wife-to-be. We traveled through Ireland, England, France, Spain & India. In order to stretch our travel funds, we took local transport, stayed in hostels and campsites, and ate street food. Somewhat proud

> Rules: Left side of equation: Increase in an asset: debit. Decrease in an asset: credit. This is the non-intuitive part for me. Everything else seems logical. Why would you debit an asset when it increases?

My experience has been that writing the design doc is not as controversial, as much as the review process. Does anyone have any insights on how to make the reviews more constructive + quicker?

By that logic, the adjustment should not be a percentage of gross pay, but a fixed dollar amount based on difference in average cost of living.
