Really good examples in this thread that show how much "design" happens in the engineering and implementation of software. If you don't focus on these issues, you'll never be a great product designer. 👇

Designers: I implore you to learn about the back-end system of the apps you work on. How can you advocate for the user if you don’t know how their data is being used, or stored? How can you offer a good experience if you can’t signal what’s going on under the hood in the UI?

Quick note for journos: this is what a suspended Twitter account looks like. Trump’s account is not suspended. He’s merely on a temporary timeout from being able to post new garbage tweets. Which is necessary, and delicious, but woefully insufficient.
