Another thing, you can always pay for somebody to do the dishes once you’re done cooking, the same way that you can pay for somebody’s services if there’s a certain part of website designing that you can’t or don’t want to do.

I cook, you do the dishes. No software is perfect, but you should pick a nice one. Web design is a good way to tell people a little bit of this.

It would be nice to cook and not clean the dishes at all, it is true. Not always possible, but it one can dream, can’t one?

@Jen / domestika –

Isn’t it funny, how often cooking can be used as an analogy for other creative activities? In the case of web design, we aim to create the best possible food in spite of variable browser standards — not only tasty and nutritious (full of good content) but appealing to the eye in its presentation. Put it that way, does every diner’s plate need to look exactly the same?

Totally agreed, food and web layouts must be beautiful, delicious and nutritious, but doesn’t have to be the same every time.

Is McDonald’s and not Michelin listed restaurants that are worried in ensuring any lame cook can reproduce a recipe with exactitude at the cost of quality.
