It's concerning that universities do not teach software design, especially as it becomes a larger part of developers' responsibilities due to advancements in AI.

I believe design can be taught, even to students who have just learned to code.

As AI tools handle more low-level programming tasks, the role of software designers will increasingly focus on higher-level design, making software design more important than ever.

As software becomes easier to build, design becomes more important, leading to an increase in the number of designers hired.

Design in the tech industry was often an afterthought, typically involving superficial changes like color, rather than a fundamental aspect of product development.

The two main approaches to software design are top-down and bottom-up, each with its own advantages and pitfalls, and effective design often involves a combination of both.

The government's actions have led to a decline in students taking design and technology courses, which are essential for fostering interest in engineering.

I think the most important elements of design are pushing towards general-purpose solutions to avoid unnecessary specialization.

The future of software development education may shift towards understanding higher-level abstractions and problem-solving, while classical computer science education focuses on foundational concepts like assembly language and how processors work, rather than just the latest technologies.
