What are interfaces if not ways to communicate?
- klysm 3y agoalso they aren't mutually exclusive lol
- sanderjd 3y agoNailed it right here. Lots of people don't think of it this way though :)
- ak217 3y agoYes, and not just that. A lot of management boils down to aligning teams' responsibilities with their interfaces, and committing the teams to a baseline of usability of their interfaces.

- bombela 3y agoIndeed. A way to communicate, reduce mistakes, all the while; hopefully; without restricting the task at hand. Basically, the opposite of a modern microwave.
- jinay 3y agoSounds like you've got a personal vendetta against modern microwaves.
- bombela 3y agoI have a personal vendetta against almost all modern UIs, coffee machine and printers included, like the sibling comment joked about. The lag on key/touch presses. The stupid and overcomplication of the controls. The simple made difficult. The hard made impossible.
- tleilaxu 3y agoIf they have something against modern microwaves, I hope they never discover office printer interfaces. It may be all too much.
