Interesting (and cool) that he came to design with a EE degree, so he really does understand the entire stack, from elegant user experience down to the p-n-p junction.
- shmageggy 14y agoMaybe he does know all of it but that is not directly implied. Just because one is keen on the two endpoints doesn't mean you've also got all of the creamy filling. There's quite a bit in between that one can be ignorant of and still be effective.

- sudhirj 14y agoI've noticed that EE actually has a lot to teach software engineering in terms of creating and designing systems - architecture, composition, testing etc are much more mature in that field. A lot of the ideas we 'discover' with regards to software seems to be old best practice / fundamental in that field. Things like designing modules that are separate, reusable and fully testable (Remember ICs?) How interfaces translate to action, too. We even call the process 'wiring' to this day.
- adrianhoward 14y agoYou'll be surprised at the number of UX and design folk who have come from a engineering/dev background. From conversation it's a lot more than many folk seem to expect.
