a day ago
  • Designing UI based on imagined failure modes leads to missing real-world issues.
  • Real users encounter unanticipated failure modes that designers cannot foresee.
  • The system itself is a better source of truth than imagination for non-trivial systems.
  • Build, instrument, and surface system state to understand actual behavior rather than projecting ideal flows.
