I know no-one cares what I think, but I'll say it anyway.

WTF is with all the stupid sites and apps that have imperceptibly differing shades of the same color in an attempt to differentiate disparate elements? How about elements that have NO indication that they are "clickable".
Just a horrible state of UI design.

at least poal, for the most part, doesn't suck too bad.

Good visual designers are hard to come by. Ill write all the code you want but honestly dont care at all for the styling parts of it beyond throwing some placeholder styles in for the fag that comes behind me and gays it up. Most of my shit doesn't really matter though it's all internal tools for doing bullshit like calibrating cameras and providing diagnostic feedback.

previous/current jobs I write a lot of code to collect measurement data from electronic test equipment (o-scopes, meters, vnas, etc.). now they added DBA to that as well, and half my job is managing databases. I don't mind, the variety is nice, and I've always liked databases (I'm weird, I know).
but yeah, like you I don't really care that much for front end design. I'm more of a practical, realistic person than a fancy "designer".

Also most developers who come from back end systems are terrible designers. Yeah sure, I could go hire a designer, or i could placehold some bullshit together based of what Google does and call it a day.
