Oh wait, this isn’t the Reddit anymore.
- !crappydesign@sh.itjust.works
- !assholedesign@lemmy.ml
- !assholedesign@lemmy.world
- !crappydesign@zerobytes.monster
Did I do that right?
Exclamation mark denotes the community, so:
!crappydesign@zerobytes.monster
The @ is the username indicator, so you’ve pinged people whose usernames are those for the instance.
This is one of those double edged sword things with Lemmy, since there’s so many places a community can be, they all end up being a little smaller. There’s got to be a better solution for that. Maybe when creating a community there should be a way to automatically search a large portion of committed all at once and display it to the user.
Is that the engineers fault? Or is that the people who are supposed to check for usability after the engineer is done designing the functional aspects? Because it’s not usually an engineer’s job to do this…
Basic product testing is the foundation of manufacturing, an error like this doesn’t get all the way through production and it still be just the engineers fault.
They probably reused a PCB from another model that used a paperclip hole reset. They duplicated the design, sent it for testing, and came back with “everything is great, but make the reset a push button before you ship it.” Engineering probably said “ok. But it will need to go back for usability testing” and sales said “fuck that, send it”
Or another possibility, after proto and lots of testing: “we need to move test button a couple of cm to the right, away from the corner. No further tests needed”
Cisco and Juniper need to die as entities like 5 years ago. They’re single-handedly holding back all of networking from entering the modern era of computing.
Care to elaborate? Sounds like an interesting story.
You must not work in enterprise IT. Every lower level network engineer says this until they gain more skills and experience with them. Then they realize the full extent of features Cisco and Juniper support that others don’t
Surprising opinion, I was only a junior in my brief stint at networking but all my seniors shared this opinion.
