I am terrified these days of showing anything that looks like something that works to a project manager or client, without covering it in warning graphics. Eve

Even photoshop mockups of UIs, introduced as, "Here's a photoshop mockup of the UI, what do you think?" will get some people to demand that it be shipped immediately.
- outworlder 8y agoOne thing that I've learned (from someone else) is that unfinished software should look unfinished. Even if you have to muck around with CSS, disable some buttons here and there, maybe add something out of place. If the UI looks perfect, then everyone will deem it to be finished, even people who should know better. Yes, I'm advocating knowingly crippling demos. Your master branch may have something prettier, but take a sledgehammer and uglify the bastard before showing to decision makers.
