I think that was the intent, but my point was that even a side-by-side isn't worth much to someone truly clueless who doesn't know what to look for. If a picture is worth a thousand words, it's extremely difficult for me to d

Thanks, very helpful examples.

Did you mean to imply autistism-driven sensory overload is something I'm choosing in interpersonal communication? I did not mean the article was lazy, I meant that specifically about hypothetical co workers. The article was at the time

The addition does indeed provide the clarity I sought. For reasons I won't bore you with, I truly could not discern what the issue was. Every one of my hunches was wong. Hopefully you can see I was disappointed because it was somethin

I disagree with your assessment but allow me to clarify so there is no room for misunderstanding. Yes I do believe the type of coworker who uses a screenshot to communicate instead of describing an issue is indeed lazy and insulting. The ar

That makes sense. Thanks very much for the clarification.

Thanks for the response. I was feeling a little crazy. The rest of responses to my comment so far are either dismissive or don't seem to understand what I was trying to communicate, but you seem to have the same issue I have.

In what way? They both have subtitles. The issue with "quality" is not clear to at least me, and I'm guessing that's because I don't watch crunchyroll or much anime.

Seems like you were so quick to jump to the defense of the author (who likely doesn't need your white knighting) you completely misunderstood or are misrepresenting what I said was lazy and insulting which was the hypothetical coworker

The article says there's a nosedive. But by what standard(s)? See the questions I already posted in my original response. Both the "good" and "bad" quality examples contain subtitles with no discernible difference.

As someone who doesn't watch anime, this article reminds me of when a coworker sends a screenshot with zero context and says something like "is this supposed to be like this?" Maybe it's a spectrum thing, but I find it b

It likely doesn't account for the evolving definition of what a "close" friend actually is. Just because Jack and Jill know a bunch of details about each others' lives owing to facebook updates or group chats, that doesn

Denigrating "breathless moralization" and promply using ALL. CAPS. AND. EXCESSIVE. PUNCTUATION. topped off with gratuitous profanity was a masterstroke.

Sorry, I wasn't particularly clear. When someone asks me about smart devices, e.g. a washing machine, I really pressure them about why they need it to be smart, and encourage them to go dumb.

That's fantastic, thanks for sharing :)

I disagree with your point about quality, but I'll indulge you for the sake of discussion. Given the choice between "lower quality" that will always work, or convenient-until-inevitably-bricked, I'll always advocate for

As the resident Tech Guy in a few circles (family/friends) I often get asked what I'd recommend with regard for "smart" products. Due to the widespread and apparently default lack of support for offline-friendly operatio

"This is a you problem" is quite a nothingburger of a statement. Every single problem every single person has is personal. Hence why I asked a good faith question -- to try and understand someone else's perspective. You shoul

Thanks for the added context. I obviously missed the nuance because I ragequit the page, so your perspective does help answer my question. I can understand the perspective that something whimsical might appeal to a certain group and even en

Sorry to say I've never used snapchat, so I'm not able to understand your comparison. Sure, I am perfectly capable of figuring out the site. But I won't trouble myself with it. My loss it seems! And lastly, the person I was r

I ask genuinely: what is the value -- in what way does it "fit" so well? "Custom navigation" means I as a reader need to split my focus between learning how this thing works, and consuming the information presented, whic

Of course I did. You're wrong. The provider CHOSE not to take the appropriate action. The appropriate action was ordering the medication because the automated diagnoses was in fact correct. PS - I would suggest avoiding rhetoric like &

While this is true, the horrific usage of a tool can vastly outweigh pitifully minimal benefits. I'm not implying those adjectives apply to AI, but merely presenting a worse case scenario. Dismissing the question of "does this ben

Appreciate the added and specific context. I'm not in the medical field but I have worked on EMRs. What, by your estimation, would be the better user experience for alerting the imminently life threatening situation? It sounds like a s

What could possibly be a better use case for a progress halting pop up than a potential/likely "immediate life threatening condition"??? The issue is not the UX, it's the provider's arrogance thinking they know bett

I'm genuinely curious what you'd define "nearby" and "well clear" as in concrete numbers. For the sake of clarity: I am not arguing against your point, nor am I defending Amazon or the tech in any way shape or

There's no part of me that wants to maintain relationships for the express purpose of extracting value in the future for gain -- personal or otherwise. I simply refuse to let the end justify the means, whatever that end is.

> Good politics is just being strategic about relationships and influence in the service of good outcomes. Yeah, no shit dude. That's exactly the part that's disgusting. Using the word "just" here feels dishonest. I w

You might not want to. It's definitely not appealing to me in any way shape or form. The younger generations however will likely gobble it right up. I try not to judge because folks said the same thing about Nintendo when I was young.
