This little
message
is something that has
recently
appeared in
GUI design
that allows
advanced users
to eliminate
annoying messages
that they already
understand
and don't need told to them again. This is very
prevalent
in
Windows software
which is some what
dumbed down
to appeal to those who are
unintiated
to
computers
. If memory serves, I've seen them in
Unix
programs also. Anyway, the real point is how these
tiny little features
have effected my
real life
. Now, when someone says something to me that I find
annoying
or unnecessary I will say to the "Don't ever, ever say that again," which I always have to
follow
with, "I'm not being mean, I just don't want/need to hear that," in order to not hurt anyone's
feelings
. So I guess that the people who write
software
finally came up with a
feature
that is more or less
revolutionary
. I never said this before. I don't think I would have been inspired to say it, especially so
matter-of-fact
ly in the normal course of my
life
. So there it is. Maybe I'm just a
jerk
.
