you only do when it doesn't — Ritchie Wong (@ritchiewlc)
Ritchie Wong's post highlights a philosophical perspective on system design, emphasizing the invisibility of well-functioning systems. This concept is central to user experience (UX) design, where the goal is to create interfaces that are so intuitive, users interact with them effortlessly without noticing the underlying complexity. This idea aligns with principles from system design where a good design is often one that users don't notice because it works seamlessly, reducing cognitive load and enhancing usability. The mention of system functionality relates to the broader discussion in systems design about how systems should operate in a way that they meet user needs without drawing attention to themselves, which is a key aspect of creating efficient and user-friendly technology.
fucking interesting that it can elaborate on that - the goal of any interface feels so natural that when users interact with that, you don't even notice that
