Does anyone else judge the difficulty of a problem by how many tabs you close once you've solved it?

Y'know, like Sherlock Holmes' "Three pipe problem" - "This was a six tab problem" or the like.

@munin No, I don't.

I used to, mind.

I'd motherfucking /like/ to.

But no, I don't, BECAUSE MOTHERFUCKING CHROME DOESN'T HAVE ANY MOTHERFUCKING WAY TO MOTHERFUCKING MANAGE MOTHERFUCKING TABS. AND ITS DRIVING ME MOTHERFUCKING NUTS.

Sorry.

I feel slightly better now.

But seriously. I've got a post-it on my desk lamp, dated 15 April, reading "close tabs". That's my message to myself to try to whittle down the tab list on my Chrome/Android instance. Fat lot of good that.

@munin ... might in fact /not be selected for use by those attempting to accomplish said task, should they have any ... maternally emotively fixated ... choice in the matter.

Which of course means that those users, and by this I mean myself, who actually attempt to do such a thing, are clearly mad as clams.

That's the survivorship-bias argument.

I've also proposed an alternative theory: that of the tyranny of the minimum viable user.
