The recent article he is responding to posits that designers who code are valuable. That is true. To debunk the claims properly he would need to show that designers who code are not valuable. Instead he debunked the straw man argument "designers should code".
- j_baker 15y agoIt certainly sounds to me that "designers should code" is the argument some are making. http://andyrutledge.com/web-design-is-product-design.php http://andyrutledge.com/web-design-is-product-design.php The graphic designer who lacks html/css skill is insufficiently prepared as a web designer. A designer who lacks competence should address that issue rather than seek refuge within embarrassing debate. Sounds pretty clear-cut to me.
