The same thing with things like Stonehenge. I liked the theory that said these types of constructions are the result of the prehistoric version of Burning Man, where they built it just because they could as an art installation.
“The Thing” was a very clear warning
I usually say what unit of measurement we’re counting in: days, weeks or months. For more detail, more specs are needed.
it reaches 100F regularly during summer in many temperate climates,
Not when it’s near the sea, like most of western Europe. It’s the same shit as “why don’t you have airco?” Because it was never that hot.
It has only been 100°F once in the last century. Nobody has any point of reference to make this intuitive. 30°C/85°F is defined as hot around here. 40°C/100°F is defined as national emergency.
But being caught in a lie would destroy your clout instantly. If they’re competing for clout there would be a big incentive to prove the competition wrong.
Users expect to buy a game, a product, not a service. There are enough examples always needing to be online games where local single player stops working when sunsetting the server or just a connection issue.
They’ll do an outlook: cut features from the desktop version until it’s exactly the same as the web version, because every interface needs to be a facsimile of the web, right?
You build your own floppotron of course
It’s not stupid. It’s just the bastard child of Germany, Dutch, French, Celtic and Scandinavian and tries to pretend this mix of influences is cool and normal.
I’ve put a shoji screen behind my workspace for these kind of situations. One client was really paranoid like that.
And that’s how an iPhone with an interface that even a toddler can figure out sold a few billion units.
Standard earbuds with a cable manager. It was the time that all phones had an audio jack.
The usual response is to overload them with work and basically hound them for ticket numbers, time allocation, budgets and adhere to a very rigid “no ticket, no work” version of the company policy. Preferably with all colleagues at the same time, just waiting at his desk before the boss walks in.
Finally very detailed climate simulations to know how hard we’re screwed
The most important thing is what you’ll get. A few static pages and stock images with the watermark still present, sure. Beyond that the meter starts running.
Best comment ever was “It used to work like this but person at client demanded it work like that on this date” when the client complained it shouldn’t work like that.
I’ll only call you doctor when you call me engineer. It’s a protected title too.
Soylent Green is a lie anyway. Your need to “soylentify” half the population to feed the other half every year if it would be the only source of calories.
