Hey man,

If you're skilled in both, there are definitely opportunities out there that give you the best of both worlds. I've been designing and coding at virtually all of my roles at companies, and most of it has been on the product side... I feel like it's more common at smaller companies though.

I've been at this crossroads before. If you're anything like me, you'll miss coding after a long bout of designing, and vise-versa.

Either way, best of luck and remember to always try and do stuff you truly enjoy.

I've had this app from the get-go and I'm way more pleased with this design.

I'm into the hand-holding going on with the bounces and whatnot.

I totally agree. Really love Stripe's experience and visuals.

Is it just me or is this also broken for everyone else? I can see the page (looks great), but after trying to sign up etc, I get errors. The site is a bit sluggish in general.

That parallax wallpaper stuff. Into it.

I really like it. Definitely easier on the eyes. The interactions look great too. Feels like there's a bit of fine-tuning going on as far as experience goes. Can always appreciate that.

The changes are a nice group of additions and improvements to an already pretty sweet mobile operating system. This ought to tran$late well.

Can't agree with the "Flat for the sake of flat" comment though. Flat design tends to look pretty good if done correctly. I'm glad a company as big as Apple has the humility to recognize something like that.

Agreed. They're totally nice to have. For developers who aren't all that design savvy, It's a big help in getting something that looks and feels pretty good out there. Better way to get their ideas (which could be fairly complex to begin with) out there and make them more easily digestible via a better interface.
