To my untrained eye, this is a natural consequence of focusing on profit above all. So a natural consequence in cultures where such focus exists.

"It is solvable" is equivalent to "politics are not necessary", which I can't agree with. Agreeing on edits requires a shared context, a shared understanding of the goal and requirements of the text being edited, an

We are aligned. Software cannot identify intentions. Heck, even person A cannot identify intentions of person B in a systematic way. Hence it's a non-solvable problem.

Considering that software can only guess the intent if it's not declared explicitly, I'm curious what such an "intent declaration" language would look like.

I would wager that, in general, supporting the notion that several different entities are all the authority over a piece of data simultaneously and without live coordination is not solvable. This is a learned lesson for distributed systems,

That's going to be a very bumpy road, even if everyone were to agree that the destination is appealing.

I can't imagine a banking interaction where the amount of money is not a precise value. What use cases motivated the testing of a slider?

Well,[the data it transmits] it's personal information, so the owner of the car has a very explicit right to it. (Car plates are from an EU country.)

I wonder what should be the GDPR implications for the car dealership, selling cars that track their owner's location and not being able to confirm it, explain why it exists, or who receives the data. Unless the whole thing is disabled

The analysis of real-life interfaces is quite interesting, and as a novice in the field I had never reflected much on the by-feature / by-operation / by-technology / by-use case distinction.

Companies should require a "reputation score" certified by multiple independent auditors, before being allowed to host an app store/game store. Having a continued history of market position abuse would be an instant fail on t
