I never understood why people rave about #Matrix so much anyways.

It's a nightmare for #endusers and #devs

N-gated Hacker News Jun 11, 2025

In today's thrilling episode of "Buzzword Bingo," we've learned that #AI #vulnerabilities are not just real, they're ✨0-click✨ miracles that apparently transform humans into 'end users' who need to "securely adopt" what is already leaking data like a sieve. 🚀 Rest assured, the Agentic AI Revolution is here to protect you from... itself? 🤦‍♂️

@TomLarrow not to mention that it #free's us all - #devs and #endUsers - of the #toxicity that process creates within any #tired, #stressed and/or #wornOut #community! #mentalHealth (and #wellbeing) should always walk hand-in-hand with any #human #activity and #interaction IMHO.

The best #technology is transparent w/ Rumee Singh, #ceo #cofounder.

Great technology and solutions shouldn't need end-users to understand what's under the hood. It should provide value, solve a problem, and Just Work(TM).

@msdropbear42 `we` as in paid IT staff, don't 'do' this to other people, most of it is corporate management mindset/incompetence run riot.

That said, all you can do is support alternative options, and keep in mind that #Windows #EndUsers did not expect this and had it foisted upon them by #ITManagers that drank the #Microshaft coolaid.

I'd gladly reach out and help the user as they're the ones that need the support, however .. it's not 'their' PC that #Crowdsrike has borked, in this instance, but their service providers boxen.

Maybe next time a #Linux or #FOSS user reaches out offers those poor souls help, they'll listen more closely. We can only hope they understand, it's just different, not hard.

The only thing you should ever assume about your end users is that they'll use your software however the hell they want. #EndUsers #Software #UserBehavior

All #tech services are only going to get worse. There is little incentive to make good products. The goal of #techstartups is to get good enough reviews to sell out to a bigger company, they only have to appeal to reviewers and insiders. Established services, like #Google, are a #monopoly and only exist to make shareholders happy, not #endusers. End users are the third class citizens of the tech world. 1/2

TEMA EU Mar 12, 2024

In the initial phase of the #TemaEU, user requirements were identified to comprehend the pilot areas and gauge satisfaction with the #TemaEU solution among #endusers. To achieve this, interviews were organized between technical partners and the Consortium's end users.

👀 You can learn about the interview outputs in this article:

@Nonog
LOL
It is what? 30 years since Windows 3.1?
And this is being suggested as a way forward?

Are the authors seriously saying that designers and developers should pay attention to #EndUsers?

Software companies, designers and developers have fucked us over for decades.
Where is the financial incentive for them to change?

This is something I wrote a while back, but it is still true now as it was then.

We're going on a Requirements Hunt.
We're going to catch a full one!
We're not scared.
