- socalgal2 1y agoIn the context of the article it is separate. maybe engage with the article itself instead of arguing with something the article is not about?
- dr_dshiv 1y agoThere is a general academic rejection of “solutionism” that prefers criticism to design. I find it unnerving, personally.
- grimpy 1y agothis is a useless semantic position. could you frame innovation problems as "design" problems? sure. was the cotton gin framed as a "design" problem in the sense that it had some sort of epistemological lineage to the "design" discipline when it was invented? I suspect not. the worst thing design ever did for itself was frame itself as "the" human-centered problem solving discpline. everyone is a human-centered problem-solver in the most general sense, in the same way that everything is a "design" problem in the most general sense.
