The problem is Japan, not just Fujitsu. Sincerely, Japanese software is worse than warm, putrid, liquid dog shit. Japanese programmers (note: not engineers) are the bottom of the barrel bar none.
- pezezin 3y agoI live in Japan and sadly, I can confirm. Anyone who has to deal with Japanese IT systems knows that they are crap.
- M95D 3y agoI'm not so sure. I operate daily a japanese Sysmex haematology analyzer and a french Stago coagulation analyzer. Even though coagulation is a much simpler procedure, the french software is omg-who-built-this-shit worse. It can't even do batch printing of results.
- pezezin 3y agoYou are talking about embedded or industrial control systems, which are always funky. I am talking about normal software and websites that a normal person needs to interact with on a daily basis. For example, go to any random Japanese website and prepare to be greeted with a design that looks like it was taken straight out of Geocities.
