Discussion on: How you communicate matters

In this day, this is all still relevant... plus I’ll add design as a correlary. These days great ideas need great design. I see so many technically interesting projects with zero design aesthetic that definitely turns off potential users.

Not everyone is naturally great at design, but it’s an area you can’t have contempt for. It needs to be considered as a big part of communicating good things.

I'll add a corollary to that for the aesthetics design people: don't have contempt for programming, and don't assume a programmer knows nothing about design.

Many of problems in UX come about because of a failure to properly communicate between these two highly overlapping fields.
