I agree with engineers doing a better job. Especially over inepexerienced UX professionals who want to try the latest fad. Ultimately users don't care - they want it to work consistently and be intuitive.
- Aeolun 7y agoThe most usable application I’ve seen recently (including the ones I’m working on :( ) has been our 2000ish era work time entry system. My initial gut reaction when I saw it was ‘oh god, how ugly’, but then I noticed how pleasant it was to use.

And if you get these 3 aspect experience right, you can basically get away with murder: Quick performance, accurate info/data, and forgiving/recoverable from error/mistake. What is looks like, for the most part is inconsequential.
