There's something poetic about the fact that I can't connect to a post apparently titled, "Offline first..."

I don't think you really understand what user experience design is. Good design doesn't automatically mean stripping out features. There is a delicate balance between simplicity, complexity, achieving business goals and user needs that all designers must strive for.

And yes, this is an infomercial.

Agreed. "When trying to articulate what it is I do, I find that I default to an older arsenal of terminology to qualify what is actually a fairly simple vocation, built on an assortment of superficial qualifications and reliant on a heavy interaction with a cloud of specialized UX disciplines." Huh?

This person clearly has a difficult time explaining basic concepts (not exactly a trait I'd look for in an IA).
