If designers tried to design Bloomberg Terminal today, it would be a bloated javascript app that takes way too fucking long, the information density would be 1/10th of what you can fit on a screen, giant fonts, unnecessary animations and stripe-like-polish, large buttons, scroll jacking and hiding most important controls unless you hover the mouse over a region (read: undiscoverable), and it would have gradients somewhere with a sticky top menu. We've totally regressed. We've lost it. We've become enamored with aesthetics. Btw, it would also be available as an electron app on Mac, Windows and Linux platforms. And it will automatically update behind the scenes, who gives a fuck about your ability to control updates for a $25k/year business critical software.
