I've been hearing a lot about design focused startups lately. It seems to be the trendy thing to talk and debate about. I'm not going to side with design over engineering, but I just want to point how well Airbnb has focused on design. From every detail of their UI to their offline user experience, it all has been designed beautifully. I don't think anyone can argue against the fact that great design helped Airbnb become the success they are today.

- kurtvarner 15y agoIt shouldn't be one or the other, it should work in unison. I completely agree. That's why I prefaced my comment by saying that I wasn't siding. Most people talking about the subject will be strongly supporting one particular side.
- stefantalpalaru 15y agoSo where should we put the lack of newline to <br> conversion inside place reviews - design or engineering?
