Thank you. This is a perspective that is often overlooked. We all know the shortcomings of software engineering - why are we blaming the user first?

- jdminhbg 4y agoA suggestion to fix it isn’t “blaming the user.” I’ve had to retrain mine. It’s annoying that it failed and I had to do it, but I’m also glad I spent 20 seconds fixing it instead of worrying about blame.
- daniel_reetz 4y agoWith respect, I'd just like to add that this is the company that famously said "You're holding it wrong". Voice assistants fail in surprising and strange ways. Retraining might help, it might not.
- jdminhbg 4y agoI have no idea how what Steve Jobs said about the iPhone 4 over a decade ago is supposed to be related to a random HN poster's suggestion for fixing a HomePod.
