... penny for every time I heard a developer say something stupid about their own field.
Just because you're not aware of 1 thing, doesn't mean you shouldn't be called a designer anymore. Just so you're aware, your horse is high as a kite.
- tripzilch 10y agoNot so high when it really is the equivalent of an app-developer unaware that an iOS app won't run on Android.
- cpmsmith 10y agoI'd much sooner compare it to an app developer not thinking backward OS compatibility is necessary—far more pervasive [edit: coherence]
- richforrester 10y agoSince I started this, I'd make the analogy that "not realising what level of contrast can pose problems" is about as common as "not commenting your code properly".
