That sounds awkward to me. You really need an SA that can look at both sides. In many cases, the data and needed workflows have to drive the UI to create the UX. My preference is bottom up while keeping the top-down in my thoughts at all times. Then turn it over to the make pretty group and tell them if they touch the code flow, I'll break their fingers. Not really of course, but work together to come up with the best UX possible given the required criteria. It's an agile give and take through the entire development track.

Very much true, the work-/dataflow has to drive the UI. That's why we're designing the UX according to the workflow while I (the dev) sit in the meeting, making sure my backend fulfills the use case requirements (work-/dataflow) and answer questions in the likes of "can we do that". When you're designing for end-users, that's a hella great methodic.

There is a book, not specifically about UI/UX or even programming in general, but it is about design. What makes a good design good? I think everyone who designs anything for human use should read it: The Design Of Everyday Things
After that, everything is just a smop.

Hi. I think you can start with Google courses. It helps you to understand every basic subject and maybe helps you to improve to midlevel one. Then you can recognize who is right by yourself.

As always happens when companies get too big or too successful for their own good, and employ too many people looking to justify their own existence Microsoft's products now insult and harass their users.
This is the natural evolution of a company. I accept that Microsoft is going to suck. They are just at that point in their lifecycle when they're the drunk uncle that nobody wants at the wedding.
All that said, it used to take me two clicks to open a folder with VS Code under Windows 10.
Now it takes me 3, because somebody stupid and nevertheless employed thought it would a great idea to hide all of the context menu additions I explicitly installed behind a "show all options" menu.
How do I turn off this "feature?"

As I do with anything new from MS I'll delay updating as long as possible. I have tried it on a non work box and I didn't like what I saw.

I delayed it, but then i nuked something on my old install that prevented me from programming raspberry pi picos.
At all on my system.
Seriously.
Zadig installed drivers that then went into limbo and therefore could not be uninstalled and were preventing the proper handshaking when you plugged the boards in via USB.
So since i had to do a fresh install anyway I figured I may as well go all the way and upgrade. Saves me doing a fresh install later.

My observation: as companies approach the size of the government (pick a large one), they achieve the same efficiency.

I'd forgotten this one. It was my biggest after switching to Windows 11.

Still remember the ribbon. Just a fancy toolbar, and it is not like the menu has disappeared in the rest of the world. Even see menus used in web pages. And still have that miserable "Modify Style" that uses that miserable Format button at the bottom. Has Microsoft not heard of the tab control. Office applications have had minimal evolution, and Microsoft has not fixed the ability to program office applications. Outlook has changed very little from 1995. What exactly has Microsoft been doing for the last 20 years. Have to say that the Visual Studio team has made enhancements but why did it take so long to get to 64bit? And I understand that SQL server is good also. But I go and use control-F and it does not work the same, and control + and Control - do not work like in the browsers. Guess Microsoft never learns how important UX is and consistency between applications. Microsoft seems to already be very much like IBM.

They did this so the poor user doesn't feel overwhelmed when presented with endless choices. They simplified it all for you. Don't worry your pretty little head...
