> If I spend hours of my day using a device I should be able to theme it exactly to my taste. The customer is always right in matters of taste. You are supposed to serve your customers not the other way round.
This attitude always cracks me up. Only with tech products and among techies do we hear these demands of infinite customization of the products and tools we use.
Can you imagine any other vocation or industry making such demands of infinite customization of their tools and products that they use? I know I can’t.
The real analogy here isn’t landlords and homes. It’s a carpenter demanding that Stanley ship moldable handles with their hammers so that it fits their hand one millimeter better giving them the ability to maybe hammer one extra nail a day.
