'Users hate change'

'Users hate change'

This week NN Group released a video by Jakob Nielsen in which he attempts to help designers deal with the problem of customers being resistant to their new site/product redesign. The argument goes thusly:

  1. Humans naturally resist change
  2. Your change is for the better
  3. Customers should just get used to it and stop complaining

There's slightly more to it than that, he caveats his argument with requiring you to have of course followed their best practices on product design, and allows for a period of customers being able to elect to continue to use the old site, although he says this is obviously only a temporary solution as you don't want to support both.

// Bundling the .app is the first thing it does, and creating the DMG is the
// second. Making the DMG is optional, and is only done if you provide
// the template DMG file, which you have to create beforehand.

Go (Golang) Standard Library Interfaces (Selected)

Go (Golang) Standard Library Interfaces (Selected)

This is not an exhaustive list of all interfaces in Go's standard library. I only list those I think are important. Interfaces defined in frequently used packages (like io, fmt) are included. Interfaces that have significant importance are also included.

All of the following information is based on go version go1.8.3 darwin/amd64.
