True fact: I once had to do a job where the IT point of contact was so paranoid about security I had to be on site, using their computer, to do the work. This was the editor I had to use… to do XSLT/Xpath work. Possibly the biggest nightmare project of my career.
Jared Spool on whether we should really be so quick to say “well, isn’t that just common sense?” when we hear about new methods, processes, and philosophies (specifically applying to Lean UX at the moment but relevant always). I know I’m pretty quick to say it, and as someone trained only through work experience who didn’t go to school for HCI, “common sense” can feel like my only trick. But it’s probably a good lesson to learn not to dismiss anything that we think we know.
