Said on Rosenfeld Review Podcast

“If people are doing things at work, I think a great place to start is a really simple visual-only update that's not functional, because that's something design cares about. And since it's not functional, it's a very low-risk update, and engineering is usually very welcoming of people doing this.” — David Siren Eisner, Rosenfeld Review Podcast

“It's not going to be successful to say, no, this title can't do this. What you need to say is, this is the quality at which these different things need to be done. And as long as people can meet that quality, that's fine… I kind of think of this as design CI, the tooling that engineering had of continuous integration and automated tests. We need our version of that in design.” — David Siren Eisner, Rosenfeld Review Podcast

“I've just seen over and over again that when passing context is the friction, it's okay to take a little bit of a hit in expertise. The biggest churn happens when someone has to make a decision and they don't have that context, and then they do something that takes more time or isn't the right thing. And that's really hard to undo.” — David Siren Eisner, Rosenfeld Review Podcast

“The way we built software in a lot of recent years, the line happened to be just where people started coding. It didn't matter what was going on. Design went up to this point, and engineering started here. It meant there was a lot of translation that had to happen between design and coding, and a lot of things got lost. There was this feeling that engineering was extremely expensive, so we needed to get them completely ready.” — David Siren Eisner, Rosenfeld Review Podcast

“It is the biggest thing in my life in terms of tech, but I just don't think it's as radical as like suddenly you can talk to anyone in the world.” — Paul Ford, Rosenfeld Review Podcast

“When it gets into that weird social relationship where it's telling you that was a good idea, that's actually where my alarm bells go off... The native buttering up of these technologies, I think is really dangerous.” — Paul Ford, Rosenfeld Review Podcast

“The paragraphs are always the exact same length. They're very balanced. Everything is very smooth and they keep making it smoother and smoother... Thought is very jagged. It does not organize itself nicely into paragraphs... when it takes those rough edges away, you no longer can really see a mind at work.” — Paul Ford, Rosenfeld Review Podcast
