UX Designer (at Google) here. I feel your pain. For any design to work, it needs to be grounded in a firm understanding of the user's behavior. I agree that design intuition is limited by one's own view of the world, so it's

The magic wand tool (or really any of the "modern" extraction tools in Photoshop) can't handle hair the way they claim to do in those examples. If this is truly done with non-manual work, it's incredibly impressive.

Parents buy iPod Touches for their kids, so they have a cheap wi-fi enabled gaming and entertainment device, with no monthly contracts, that fits in mom's purse. Companies buy iPod Touches to use as ticket scanners, credit card readers

This extended back to USWeb/CKS. I might still have a shirt bragging about a $300M quarter (Though if you looked at the financials,we had something like a $50M loss). It was like the Tres Comma club, but tackier.

I don't think that's totally accurate. If you consider the popularity of adjacent technologies (games, mobile devices, entertainment), it's logical to predict that a certain technology will also be noteworthy.

It's their boss' (aka Congress) job to set a tone where it is not a livelihood risk to "do your duty". If you're a peon, "doing your duty" is a great way to put a target on your back.

I should have clarified by "Landlords" and "Middlemen" I meant the groups that lobby local governments to restrict zoning and growth, so they can retrieve higher profits. Uber is very much within the "virtuous cycle

Companies that use their property – distribution networks, in this case – to profit from others without providing wealth creation back to society. AKA Landlords, Realtors®, Middlemen, Licensures etc.

I don't disagree. I used Stampy Cat to make the market point, because there were hints that the "alright, let's play this game" spectator video was going to be a big thing, even before Twitch was Twitch. This guy has bee

These investors aren't paying enough attention to their children / their colleague's children. I would think that this guy's fame would have made this market opportunity super-obvious. https://en.wikipedia.org

There are some, who in ambition to lead (or work on highly visible projects), will step up and take on new things – meanwhile skimping on their core responsibilities and deliverables. Are these the people we want to promote into leadership

They are giving these assets out for free, and they most likely use Macs internally. If you want them for Linux, feel free to provide your own to the community.
