You are both correct. That’s one of the reasons I mentioned multi-sensory feedback. Every little bit helps. Now, sound can of course be annoying, but it’s up to the discretion (and taste) of the designer to make that call or not – as always

Blackmagic Camera, Filmic Pro and Halide. All iOS. Their problems are not exactly the same across but the button shapes are a great part of it. The other problem is, that people invent abstract icons for abstract ideas and then expect peopl

Amen to that. You seem to have completely gotten the point I was trying to make. Thank you!

> So what is the problem? If you can recognize they are buttons in context, that sounds like a successful design. Then you didn’t get my point about cognitive load or I wasn’t explicit enough. Sure you can recognize the icon-only buttons

I was actually thinking of writing a piece about the legibility of typefaces in the context of UI. It would have gone far beyond for this post though. In the meantime, go to the website of Monotype and write the word “Iliad”, once in Neue H

Just to be clear: That the article itself exists is no joke and certainly helpful to the people who use it. that being said, I work with video every day and neither I nor my filmmaking friend use it. It’s a tool for the same kind of people

You need to read “The Beginning of Infinity” by David Deutsch. It will help clear up all the muddled thinking I see going on when I read those lines of yours. Edit: You can also go here and watch this: https://youtu.be/lX-K6

You’re absolutely right. Steve Jobs warned about process and process people as well and it’s not surprising.

This might very well be true as a general statement. However, I don’t see where it applies to reseting the contents of a form.

Good article, and rather very similar to what I had written a while ago about the “save changes” dialogue boxes here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18920422
