Can you go into more detail of why you think we need to be critical of designers? The GP makes no effort to justify their criticism of designers, perhaps you can provide some reasons for it, and thereby allow people to respond to actual arg

I'm suggesting that if a company has designers that know their product, branding, team members, philosophies, values, and that have proven quality of work and ability to get along with the team, that they not eliminate their position b

Assuming for the sake of argument that this is at all true, is the problem that designers are out to justify their jobs, and making changes as a consequence, or that designers are being put in a position where they have to justify their job

Whenever I hear people say "technically correct is the best kind of correct", I inform them that that's technically incorrect.

There is no such thing as "responsible monkeypatching". Even if it's fixing a bug in the source code or annotating, as the author suggests are practical uses. Writing good code is about clarity and working within maintained e

Technically, Sturgeon's law.

I think that's less a reflection of the "law" and more a reflection of how you're trying to apply the law.

by ysavir 5y ago
As are most of these "laws". The idea isn't to do a conclusive, thorough examination of all things under the sun and render a statement that reflects that particular moment in time. The idea is to make an observation--perhaps

The ban didn't come because of the UX. The ban came because the OP told FB that they were 12 years old, and as per Facebook's terms and conditions[0], people under 13 can't use Facebook. Hence the account was shut down. This
