That doesn’t mean the inverse is true though: “if someone else is to blame you’re an asshole.”


Many things are untrue. Including "if someone else can be blamed, I am blameless".

But that's getting a bit off track. I responded to the attitude where someone should not be expected to read a simple and clear dialog because they were a hairless ape that could be drunk.

FINALLY you said something reasonable :-D I'm sorry for being an idiot, I wanted to give a different perspective, I guess I'm passionate about nice and human UI. What happened to OP is what I call a Huge Dick Move. I will defend them to the grave because I like to cut people a big big piece of slack. Because yeah they could be drunk, or just tired, which is cool, you know.

What's not cool at all though is so called "engineers" ebgineering shit like OP described which makes me ashamed of my profession everytime I watch my grandpa painstakingly wade through crap like this all the time.

I will cope, I'm a dev, many people will not and there goes their UX. Straight to trash \o/

I don't want to get absolved of my responsibilities or whatever, I want UI that doesn't suck dick and ideally doesn't star 500 repos by itself
