User interfaces
What?
Maybe you are just up late or something. This argument has progressed
further and further off the deep end. Now it's gotten all the way off.
There aren't any Software Engineers who were spending any significant time
making gadgets look different (at least, not since 1989 or so), nor any
"screwing around on things that had nothing to do with" what uppoer
management directed them to do (whether or not that affects profitability.
I can't think of one person who had anything to do with UI who was laid
off. What in the world are you talking about?
