This is how it looks for me in the Materialistic Hackernews app

Certainly some fine UI laws in action.
> It's a "Memphis style" variant. Pretty trendy these days. Now the industry is starting to move to "Neumorphism".

Really? I thought Memphis style was this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memphis_Group and this: https://www.megapixl.com/illustration-for-hipsters-memphis-s... (e.g. "80s style").

This website is not giving me that impression. If anything, it reminds me of a style I associate with the 60s or 70s (namely a sans serif font coupled with geometric graphics that use multiple shades of the same bright color).

Edit: I think it's closer to the "Swiss/International Style": https://www.google.com/search?q=Swiss/International+Style+Gr..., but I'm by no means an expert.
Prime video seems to have fleshed out its content with a lot of old, obscure, niche documentaries. Fortunately, I like old, obscure, niche documentaries and enjoy watching them. Netflix seems to stick with only mainstream content.

That's not the reasoning. He mentions at least one thing: Vinyl records sping with the same speed for the whole record, so the audio quality gets worse toward the end. This is not the case with digital recordings.
The pay gap might largely vanish when you control for different factors, but that doesn't mean there's no gap or no issue. That just means it's driven by gaps in those other factors. If you pressure different people to make different career choices, for example, you can't just then control for those choices and say it's all good and everything's fair.
This pandemic seems to provide pretty great conditions for conducting such studies, say using Facebook datasets if these were academically accessible.
If you are serious, you build your own kernel, and it doesn't matter what Debian or Red Hat does or doesn't.

A less dramatic way to say that self defence skills are quite useful, and can extend your lifetime if you do not happen to live in a civilised country.
My personal objection here is more like: I have a 600-square-foot living space, I don't trust background replacement all that much, and people keep insisting on using video conferencing that doesn't have background replacement in the first place. If you want me to leave video on all the time, give me a $100K bonus so I can upgrade to a home with a dedicated office.
One month was always going to be too little. FB can ride it all out, and if I take a step back I wonder if they can be moved with financial attacks at all. I feel the greatest weaknesses they have, and which they can't defend against, are with reputation and MAUs.

Consoles are single-purpose entertainment devices. There are dozens of choices in this market, even openly distributed PC games.

Pocket computers are generic compute devices. These should be the most open systems in the world, and yet, somehow we've been mind controlled into them becoming locked down fiefdoms.

People take pictures, make calls, make payments, find love, do business, arrange their schedule, take notes, post online, order food. Literally everything. On these devices.

For most, they've even taken the place of the PC.

They need to be open.

It breaks my number one rule of UX for the web: don't fuck with scrolling. Native scrolling is one of the most natural interactions we have with our computers. Even a slight deviation is noticeable and annoying.

Lol this is not Memphis, which is an art movement from the 80s. "Corporate Memphis" is new term to describe the over-the-top illustrated landing pages which are very common in modern web design.

It seems you are conflating "Memphis" from modern web design. What we see on the Laws of UX cards is geometric abstraction.
The touchscreen makes the Kindle unusable with one-hand operation. I'm glad the Oasis went back (at least partially) to buttons, though the buttons are too small.

The Kindle 3 did buttons right. You don't even need to push the page advance/retreat buttons, just flex your palm holding the Kindle. Very nice.
> It's incredibly challenging to change the 'facts'/narrative.

It's incredibly easy if you control the narrative factories. For example, consider the sudden switch from "masks don't work unless they're N95, you need an MD to put one on correctly, and if you buy them you're an egotistical asshole who's putting our medical workers in danger" to "even plain cloth masks are useful, everyone must wear one at all times, and if you didn't buy one you're an egotistical asshole who's putting everyone in danger" earlier this year. Took less than a week.

I was pro-mask since before the narrative switch, but it would be completely irresponsible to sit back and say "oh well, good on them for correcting themselves, that's how science works after all". That was a real "we've always been at war with Eastasia" moment: a naked exercise of power, which could be used just as easily to switch from a true narrative to a false one, or from one lie to another.
Definitely not Memphis, but I'd say it's in the Brutalist category.

Yes, and to clarify what I predict might be a point of contention about the necessity of "contradiction" in Cantor's argument, some of the comments in this thread might be helpful: https://reddit.com/r/math/comments/70xeon/why_is_cantors_dia...
>They are Floridians, so it's not like there's a lot common sense though.

I downvoted you; this kind of brash generalization about people because of their regional locality shouldn't be encouraged. It's expressing a silly and un-true meme as if it were the reality for all people living in Florida.

You aren't the only one in this thread to do so, either. I hope in the future that anyone , anywhere in the world, will double think when they say "X is from Y, they must be Z", because it's never true for the herd.
I can't get this idea out of my head
>in a way that software written in C/C++ is usually not

This is the part that seems odd, more than your experience with Rust. How could you possibly generalize based on an unspecified sampling method across "software written in C/C++"? It's like referring to the typical quality of scientific papers written in English.
> will I see the text being added real time

No, only after a page refresh.

I think we won't have automatic page refresh because it gets complicated if the author e.g. decides to add a JS script to the page. But maybe not! Or maybe we'll add it for 99% of the users who don't embed JS into their pages.
Are you thinking of UI?

Some of these may be more pertinent while analyzing User Experience compared to composing User Experience.

Occam's Razor: What is this control meant to do?

Pareto: does this UX cover at least 80% of the user's needs? Are there critical cases in the remaining 20%?

Parkinson's Law is more of a bank shot, but think of it along with the Pareto Principle: Organize the UX so that the user can accomplish the most important tasks in the least time.
Contrast ratio of 1.19 on the numbers isn't a good start either.
If that’s the whole story, that’s not the strongest of arguments. Google rejected it, Apple ¿approved? it (that isn’t clear to me from your writing), but in your opinion took too long. If Apple did approve it, how does that make Apple bad? AFAIK, you’re ou can’t sue companies for being inefficient.

Even if Apple didn’t approve it, the statement “As a response we ported everything to a web based application” seems to imply the amount of “innovation hindering” isn’t that large.
Subtitle is 20 characters too long. I truncated it a bit.
All previous splashdowns have been much further from shore and, moreover, done by squadrons of US Navy ships, so this really hasn't come up before. You don't really take your bass boat up to an aircraft carrier a few hundred miles offshore.

I expect they'll have more than one Coast Guard vessel on hand next time, and will probably look into not publicizing the landing zone.
Web is hard, is the most hostile hardware environment, ie Android fragmentation. What you're suggesting will only be feasible in a predictable hardware ecosystem.

So what you're suggesting is that users without GPUs will break.

I will take a side and pick the user this JavaScript fallback seems to me a good design choice.

I never denied that political figures from any party received threats, there are crazy people and plain criminals in every political side. What I said is that none of the censored are involved in those. The two links you enlisted doesn't even contain names.

> by preventing members of the other party from voting

This is so absurdly dramatic. Just about everything is back open and ppl agree that wearing a mask basically removes all risk. If ppl want to vote, they can get off their ass and go vote.

And from a security standpoint, how can you say this with a straight face? Some of the hardest modern struggles in the tech industry revolve around security...and you're over here acting like mailing in paper ballots, with no authentication/encryption/verification is a secure practice. All it takes is one or a few bad actors to skew the results. Look up cognitive dissonance, I think it's hitting you hard here.
Many people do not have reliable internet access.
Before the diagonalization argument, Cantor had another proof of the uncountability of the reals. Looking it up again, it's actually pretty much the Alice-Bob game!

See theorem 2:
https://www.maa.org/sites/default/files/pdf/upload_library/2...

(To see the correspondence, it's helpful to think of limits as being a kind of game. You claim the limit is a particular value, another party challenges you with an epsilon, and then you respond to the challenge by saying an index in the sequence after which all the entries are within epsilon of the claimed limit.)
This is on user interfaces for sites that are selling something. It's not for user interfaces that are for doing something.

Indeed, waiting a bit would have been a reasonable thing to do, instead the change was sanctioned on the same day.

The Santa Hat change most likely also made it so much easier to move forward with the renaming of the master branch on GitHub. One could also argue that the master branch name should have been changed back in 2014 in connection with the Ferguson unrest and the killing of Michael Brown.

I wouldn't call these Memphis at all, although Memphis certainly grew out of the same milieu. More than anything, these are referencing the look of Swiss style and mid-century modern book cover design, such as those by Rudolf de Harak.

If Github were a startup trying to get a solid MVP together, sure. However, Github was charging premium prices for an enterprise-grade product, but they were missing a super basic enterprise feature: they weren't able to connect LDAP groups to Github groups.
Liquid nitrogen cooling is a thing, where maximum per-thread performance is needed, but it provides at best 2x. There are a lot of other things to do first.
How does your organization approach UX? Do you feel like it is taken seriously?

To me UX is modern day industrial design - both for internal tools and for products.
Right, I didn't read all those links. I checked one at random, saw it's anecdotal bullshit and decided not to sift through the rest in the hope there could be something valuable in there.

But hey, spamming links is a step up from "Google yourself, there's plenty of evidence [I don't bother to cite].
Yes. Same as Hastings kicking all the CD folks off his executive team. The CEO of a startup I worked at limited the head of his most proilfitable business unit to 15 minutes per month. It seemed insane to put the cash cow at risk. He was right though. He couldn’t grow the future without doing that.
#13, the Pareto Principle, is the main source of digital inequality nowadays. Lots of modern UIs do not perform well in terms of accessibility, because backlog is never prioritized for minority groups of users. The art of inclusive communications will never exist if we continue applying this as a law, instead of focusing on reducing the costs of accessibility.
I agree, but when you factor in offices, equipment, utilities, benefits, healthcare, employment taxes, and corporate beaurocracy I think it gets pretty close.
Seems more like a convenient way to bury your rivals in downvotes. As if scientists aren't petty enough already?

Please. Nobody ever tries to reproduce experiments.
rule 21: favorize balanced density of information rather than aesthetics ;)
Copy-paste highlight from every page, for easier read:

1. Aesthetic Usability Effect - Users often perceive aesthetically pleasing design as design that’s more usable

2. Doherty Threshold - Productivity soars when a computer and its users interact at a pace (<400ms) that ensures that neither has to wait on the other

3. Fitts’s Law - The time to acquire a target is a function of the distance to and size of the target

4. Hick’s Law - The time it takes to make a decision increases with the number and complexity of choices

5. Jakob’s Law - Users spend most of their time on other sites. This means that users prefer your site to work the same way as all the other sites they already know

6. Law of Common Region - Elements tend to be perceived into groups if they are sharing an area with a clearly defined boundary

7. Law of Prägnanz - People will perceive and interpret ambiguous or complex images as the simplest form possible, because it is the interpretation that requires the least cognitive effort of us

8. Law of Proximity - Objects that are near, or proximate to each other, tend to be grouped together

9. Law of Similarity - The human eye tends to perceive similar elements in a design as a complete picture, shape, or group, even if those elements are separated

10. Law of Uniform Connectedness - Elements that are visually connected are perceived as more related than elements with no connection

11. Miller’s Law - The average person can only keep 7 (plus or minus 2) items in their working memory

12. Occam’s Razor - Among competing hypotheses that predict equally well, the one with the fewest assumptions should be selected

13. Pareto Principle - The Pareto principle states that, for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes

14. Parkinson’s Law - Any task will inflate until all of the available time is spent

15. Peak-End Rule - People judge an experience largely based on how they felt at its peak and at its end, rather than the total sum or average of every moment of the experience

16. Postel’s Law - Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send

17. Serial Position Effect - Users have a propensity to best remember the first and last items in a series

18. Tesler’s Law - Tesler's Law, also known as The Law of Conservation of Complexity, states that for any system there is a certain amount of complexity which cannot be reduced

19. Von Restorff Effect - The Von Restorff effect, also known as The Isolation Effect, predicts that when multiple similar objects are present, the one that differs from the rest is most likely to be remembered

20. Zeigarnik Effect - People remember uncompleted or interrupted tasks better than completed task
Here’s some anecdata for you!!

I hated cats until we got our first. At the time, I was in the midst of deep situational anxiety - a few days before we had just found out that a nuchal scan on my daughter detected a possible abnormality.

That was a situation I had absolutely no control over but I tend towards being obsessive. As my anxiety increases, I get more and more obsessive.

Bitey became the focus of that. Having a new little kitten gave me something to focus on aside from my fears.

Today, my daughter is four. Everything turned out great and she’s just the most wonderful little person I’ve ever met. But now I’m designing a cat tower with a fountain.

I don’t know if I have toxoplasmosis but if I did, that would sound like I’m a crazy cat middle aged dude. But, I was obsessive before and now I just love cats.

Or I’m in denial. It’s your choice!! :)
For another example of objectively worse at reproduction but subjectively better for some people, don't forget "the Bose sound".
You're just not waiting long enough.

Give it another 50 years or so and statutory sentencing probably go away. It's a system that moves so slowly that it can take multiple generations to correct wrongs. I think that's considered a feature for long-term stability, but it seems like poor design to me.

If you look at a long enough timescale, we are trending in the right direction.

Fairly sure that even thinking of clipping a cat’s claws is the dictionary definition of “scratched all to f#ck”.

I’d also suggest that the toxo-inflicted depression will be offset by the many added joys of being personally owned by a furry, purry, and only occasionally—ow, sharp!—bundle of utterly adorable fluff. Which is to say, humans are a bit more complex than ants, thus effects will be a lot less clear-cut.

Apple Store is not a monopoly, but it is a monopsony and i really don't understand why people defends this. A monopsony is arguably worst than a monopoly.
Another technique to dynamically manipulate task isolation is through the kernel's 'cpuset' interface (https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v1...). Coupled with threadirqs, and RCU 'kthread-ification' with rcu_nocbs, can wield a large amount of flexibility in organizing real-time workloads. The userspace interface to cpusets via 'cpuset' makes it even more accessible (https://documentation.suse.com/sle-rt/15-SP1/html/SLE-RT-all...)
He seems not to expect change in the "populist" element in the current media landscape. The only policy opinions/spitballs I read in the interview were banning political advertising on social media and public support for independent journalism, and he didn't give the impression that he thought either would go very far.

It seems like paradigm shifts happen more often than we think. They always surprise me, at least (BLM, same sex marriage, legalized pot in the US). Reading between the lines, I think he's saying that barring a paradigm shift, this new kind of "anti-democratic populism" is going to be around for a while.
Personally, I don't care.
I think the actual message of 'Get a simple rice cooker' often gets heard as 'Get a cheap rice cooker' which is not quite correct.

You don't need a rice cooker that has two dozen different functions and some 'Neuro Fuzzy Logic' crap. But you do want a well-built rice cooker that wont break down and rust on you.

Your best bet for a decent cheap rice cooker is your local asian market. The bigger ones will likely have quite a selection, but even your dinky little chinatown grocery store will probably have something quite usable.
From your post, I gather you are not very familiar with Ocaml module system. It's both where type-level programming happens and what F# doesn't have. You might be confusing your lack of knowledge of the languages with lack of the language.

The point is, don't have a static screen for 400ms after an interaction. If I click on something, and nothing at all happens for half a second, I feel a disconnect. A 400ms animation is a choice that you may not make, but does not 'feel' the same as a page load, or other stall.
