This is an example using the same exact design they display
So, to hear that there is a new level of control for this already judgemental and “honor” based society is just appalling.
Further, they make “innovation” like auto play when nobody asked for this, and without any way to stop it (unless you go to desktop and disable it deep in your settings).
When searching you will receive similar results for titles they used to have... well why not state “are you searching for x? It’s no longer available, here are some recommendations” so the user isn’t wasting time wondering if the search feature is just “bad”.
In the world of constant, unannounced, and live experimenting on huge user bases a little messaging goes a long way (with the comparison being nothing)
“He was a dishonest man. But, he cheated on his wife”
“He had a nut allergy. But, he had a dairy allergy.”
It’s like they’re saying: “he’s a good father. However, he had a dark side.” But they’re really not.
Also, at the beginning they say “it may be unraveling” and begin to show how it never had any legs to stand on. Just confusing communication for an article.
April estimates 5 hours of work but spends 12 on it. She justifies her overage by communicating with the PM and letting them know ahead of time the task is worse off than they thought. But to do it right she will need to go over, by roughly 5 more hours. Song the way she is taking notes of what she’s doing and then screenshots and justifications at the end to explain the work.
Bob estimates 5 hours and takes 12. He doesn’t communicate, the work isn’t finished to spec or even partially to spec, he can’t justify his time and argues that roadblocks kept him from finishing.
The latter is the person I regularly deal with and I only know one “April”.
