My post is technical.
My concern is that new bugs are created faster than old ones are fixed,
also that many of those who experience defects do not understand that they
are defects. For example it is very common for users to regard crashes and
data loss as their own fault, because they arent doing something right.
Pick out a few software products at random them look up their reviews, then
if you can sort them by Most Critical first. One can do this at the App
Store as well as many other eCommerce sites. I do this from time to time;
this leads to my reluctance to install any software I do not absolutely
require, even if it is free.
I raise this concern in other venues than Apple's lists as well. It is a
widespread problem that our profession must address. While I could name
many specific examples of software and hardware faults that cause grievous
damage I want to avoid doing so for the specific reason that I do not want
my constructive criticism to be regarded as a personal attack.
Ever Faithful,
Mike
