I remember the Dilbert Cartoon, where the pointy-headed boss informed the programmers that they would be paid for every bug they find, so one of the programmers exclaimed, ‘I’m gonna write me a new mini-van!’

Today’s programmers impress me little. More concerned about using every new gadget in their latest programmer’s toolbox update, but not about users’ needs, preferences and control.

All the crap they do trying to make up our minds for us, always changing the GUI to be ‘cooler’, going low contrast or transparent everywhere, and now the auto-correct words that are chosen just showcase their youth and/or un-worldliness. Arrrrrrrgggggghhhhh!
