@nikitonsky: What do you think this cross button means?

Well, it’s not a button. It’s error indicator. Hover to see!

Nope, sorry, hover to see a message that you need to click it to actually see the error message!

You don’t care about errors, right?

Thanks @komarovman for the video

@mamutnespit: All modern software is rapidly losing the ability to properly apply even the simplest filters.

Search for "Open Now", Google Maps will happily show closed businesses.

Search for "Today", Facebook will happily show you events from any date except today.

Search for a text, most search systems will fail to find the exact text match...

@nikitonsky: The tragedy of non-English keyboards.

The Russian alphabet has more letters. So it needs more buttons. Understandable.

Apple decided to take away the comma and dot (instead of e.g., second Shift). Bad, but unfortunately, it’s been happening on physical keyboards for a long time.

But iPads have this great feature: you can slide down on a key to get extra characters!

Well, which characters did they decide to add on extra keys?

- Em dash. Okay. fancy, but usable.
- Underscore. Not sure. For programmers?
- This guy—№. I am Russian, but I don’t remember the last time I used it.
- Backtick. Freaking backtick!

All this instead of an exclamation mark and a question mark. Really, who uses those?!

I know these keyboards are designed in the US. But please, please, please, consult at least one person that speaks the language before making a decision like this. I know Americans don’t care. But for the rest of us, it’s life and death.

@nikitonsky: Time is a flat circle.

Also, why clicking “up” moves selection to the right/down?

@nikitonsky: Anyone knows why Microsoft made it impossible to draw straight arrows in Word? What’s the thinking behind this?

@nikitonsky: Clever UI trick: embeded youtube video, inside which you can use progress bar to choose between three parts, and they visually align with the progress bar
