Product development Memes

You spend weeks crafting a beautiful UI with separate food bowls, carefully positioned for optimal feeding efficiency. Then your users show up and completely ignore your meticulously designed architecture, sprawling across the entire interface like they're at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Eight years in frontend development and I've learned one truth: no matter how intuitive you think your design is, users will find a way to use it wrong. It's not a bug, it's a feature of human nature.

Ah, the classic UI vs UX distinction illustrated perfectly! On the left, we have UI (User Interface) - pretty toys dangling above a crib that make designers and stakeholders squeal "I love it!" while the actual user (the baby) is completely ignored. Meanwhile, on the right, we have UX (User Experience) - where the user is literally strapped to a medieval torture device and spun around like a rotisserie chicken. Because nothing says "we care about your experience" like making you dizzy, disoriented, and ready to vomit. This is basically every "redesigned" app after the UX team decides to "improve" the workflow you finally got used to.
