"Designers are from Venus and developers are from Mars. And they won’t ever really understand each other."
Utter nonsense. Or maybe it's true at giant enterprise silos more than startups and that's why I shy away from large corporate work. People at startups are a different breed than those at large companies, regardless of job role, and have to be interdisciplinary rather than divisive. That's the thrust of my talk tonight - Designers vs Product Managers - who's more important at startups?
No, because you're just extending an olive branch after the inflammatory attention-grabbing part. You lost me at the divisive generalization, even if I personally fall into the camp of "designers who can program".
