It's your dichotomy, "reframe the paradigm" if you'd like. The typical regurgitation of this talking point is "prioritizes form over function."
- rTX5CMRXIfFG 3y agoThat’s not a dichotomy. In virtually all of design function is a prerequisite to prioritizing form, otherwise what you’re building might not even be possible and so you might not even be creating design but just art.
- cantSpellSober 3y ago> it's all about...instead of >> That’s not a dichotomy Oops, yes it is. > prioritizing form Thanks for taking my suggestion and changing what you said (from "all about" to "prioritizing"). Doesn't add much to the so-often regurgitated complaint I'm afraid.
- rTX5CMRXIfFG 3y agoEh, your argument doesn’t really involve thinking and banks purely on semantics, which you are making arbitrarily strict and according to your personal preference. In practice, “just no-bullshit functional” as in my first comment doesn’t mean absolute neglect of form. I’m sorry but you’re not as clever as you think, and your reasoning signals that you’re not known as a good communicator or collaborator in your organization.
- cantSpellSober 3y agoMy feelings! Notice how quickly personal attacks come out once an argument has been lost?
- rTX5CMRXIfFG 3y agoWhere’s the part where it was lost? Lol
- cantSpellSober 3y agoWhen your only option was to repeat yourself, then change the subject. Winning arguments stand on their own. Will this analysis of yours go on my permanent record? What's my MBTI personality type?
