> Maybe the extinction is the population of users that's entirely unused to graphical user interfaces. You don't need to take that group into consideration anymore, so, goodbye to usability experts. > But the obvious result is that now, computer illiterate people are completely fucked IMHO, the things that "fuck" computer illiterate people also annoy and decrease usability for computer literate people, it's just that the latter group can adapt to the damage. Take those fucking horizontal slider switches, for instance. They're fucking everywhere now. It's fucking medium gray, does that mean on or off? Guess I have to toggle it and see what happens. Oh, the gray got lighter, so it must've been on? Or, the app/website/whatever looked "dated" so they "refresh" it by changing some colors and moving all the the buttons and menus around. Thanks for invalidating my muscle memory, for no good reason. IMHO, usability experts need to design all the UIs (keeping both novices and power users in mind), and give the graphic designers who are concerned about looks very little freedom (i.e. they can make suggestions, but need approval). If they want more freedom, they can design UIs for movie computers (if you want to see a good one, watch Until the End of the World).
