Refactoring until nothing is left
Code is refactored sufficiently once every feature == a single line of code.
Brendan, never tired of providing Javascript supportFrom: Brendan EichTo: mozilla-jseng Subject: Re: does mozilla support javascript? Of course Mozilla supports JavaScript. Your report is pretty useless without a testcase, or the URL of a page that doesn't work as you expect. Perhaps the page expects some non-standard Internet Explorer feature exposed to JScript to be supported by other browsers. /be 20.08.2004, 12:00 |

Designing the Star User InterfaceByte, 1982 - Xerox-Star by way of http://www.scratchdisk.com/Xerox-Star.jpg/"In the 1980s, the most important factors affecting how prevalent computer usage becomes will be reduced cost, increased functionality, improved availability and servicing, and, perhaps most important of all, progress in user-interface design. The first three alone are necessary, but not sufficient for widespread use. Reduced cost will allow people to buy computers, but improved user interfaces will allow people to use computers. In this article, we have presented some principles and techniques that we hope will lead to better user interfaces. User-interface design is still an art, not a science. Many times during the Star design we were amazed at the depth and subtlety of user-interface issues, even such supposedly straightforward issues as consistency and simplicity. Often there is no one “right” answer. Much of the time there is no scientific evidence to support one alternative over another, just intuition. Almost always there are trade-offs. Perhaps by the end of the decade, user-interface design will be a more rigorous process. We hope that we have contributed to that progress." 14.08.2004, 19:35 |
