It can be, but when you're a company like Microsoft you've poisoned the well with anyone who cares about these things. I have no confidence whatsoever that MS has purely good, product-improving/research-based intentions with

Microsoft microsofting. By which I mean making confusing UX choices that no user would want, with bad presets, and that get misinterpreted in the comment-o-sphere as dark patterns infringing on our freedoms. They're transforming the co

You don't actually care about those people if the only way you have of contacting them is Facebook. Just pull the trigger and dump it.

right and that... sucks? and is bad? A lot of the passion/hobby newsletters I receive would not exist if the person writing them had to pay to send the emails. Adding a cost to distributing information does not increase the quality of

The thing I really want with Siri is better user documentation. Give me a dictionary of all the things I can say to it! I'm only going to guess the obvious ones and then sometimes try a few experiments, but lack of awareness of what it

One has to assume this is it. I think a lot of management types do a lot of gut-level decision making, even the ones who claim it's all about the data. Which is stupid and arrogant, but they're convinced that because they are succ

It's not my fault if you can't tell why a third party app crashing because of its developers' choices and the entire operating system crashing because of the OS developer's choices are very different things

The title of this post was changed from a good summary to the pretty much nonsense businessspeak title of the article.
