Nachdenkliches zum Wochenende: The Cult of the Complex (Jeffrey Zeldman)

[Gunnar Bittersmann]

Jeffrey Zeldman hat einen lesenswerten Artikel auf A List Apart veröffentlicht: The Cult of the Complex

Einige Gedanken daraus:

• “It’s the people who use the stuff we design who suffer from our uninformed or lazy over-reliance on these div-ridden gassy tools. And that suffering is what we protest.”

• “HR folks who write job descriptions listing the ten thousand tool sets you’re supposed to know backwards and forwards to qualify for a junior front-end position don’t help the situation.”

• “CSS is not broken, and it’s not too hard.”

• “I am baffled and numbed by the growing preference for complexity over simplicity. Complexity is good for convincing people they could not possibly do your job. Simplicity is good for everything else.”
