UX is completely about the end user. A UX should be studying how people are using a product, see where they trip up and get confused and design a better experience as a result.

Printing the keys and sticking them a safe would have done the trick - but you'd need the foresight to know that not touching it for 10 years is the plan.

Probably too hard to analyze. How do you know what the demand for meat is like? Will people just switch to other foods if it becomes too expensive? If pork is costing me $50/kg, maybe I start eating potatoes and nuts? Maybe other facto

Sounds like he wants software to contain AGI, such that it can work out which version of a document you want to keep, and fix it's own errors. Honestly things were way more sucky years ago. Your Windows computer crashing was just norma

The problem with this is you'll end up with just TED talks. Very entertaining soundbites by super-professional speakers. But the guy with all the technical knowledge who works on code all the time doesn't speak because he's n

Yes sorry I was thinking in terms of code that uses callbacks, not the async keyword. What I mean is that distinct from threading, where the following code could be interrupted between the first and second line of the function, by something
