Coding and playing guitar is also two different disciplines, but for some reason a lot of programmers do enjoy playing music.
I do not believe that different disciplines are at odds in the sense that single person cannot learn to do them well. I am more inclined to believe that learning different stuff actually helps to be better at each one.
- humbleMouse 10y agoI'm not saying you can't be good at two things. I'm just saying that if you spend 8 hours a day specializing in one thing, you will be really good at that thing. Designers think about all sorts of things that aren't on programmers brains. I haven't studied the history of design and UX experience and theory. I also don't want to sit around in adobe designing mock-ups all day, that's why I am a programmer.
