The article misses some more context.
1. The escalation intensified after tweets by prominent ministers and fucntionaries of the ruling government were marked as "manipulated media" 2. The IT Ministers and opposition partys accounts were locked for copyright infringement. 3. The govt wants twitter to comply on removing content and users critical of govt policies.

People use phones, phones have all the sensors required to 'sense' if the object/person is in motion. Depending on when it is in motion, the phone could partially disbale itself. this could be done by phone makers as a feature "Driving Mode". No need for extra hardware.

not speculation, note that these are just some of the cases that have surfaced and got to the media.

This should be read with USCIRF Report, which recommends US Govt to designate India as 'country of particular concern' https://www.uscirf.gov/annual-reports?country=47

What Sketch is doing in the post is marketing their constraint as their strength.
Some reasons on why Sketch is not a good design tool:
1. Exclusion: Sketch was never cross-platform. There by excluding people. Design is all about inclusion. There have been numerous requests to make sketch available on windows. 2. Apple only: Sketch was made to design stuff for Apple Ecosystem and that mostly remains that way. 3. Cost: Sketch exlcudes people to design basis cost. People measure the cost of sketch as USD 99. However, the real cost is cost of owning a Mac and then owning a Sketch license. Owning a Windows/Linux machine with Figma / Xd is way cheaper and makes the tools of trade accesible to the masses.
As i contrast these with Figma Or XD or even InvisionStudio, the tools of trade are far more accesible to the masses.
A feature based comparison is not helpful as Sketch can catchup to Figma (is already doing so with Sketch Cloud).
A designers take.

This is a good step forward to improve the consumption of PDFs. https://www.nngroup.com/articles/pdf-unfit-for-human-consump...

I have known P2 since it was a theme. What i dislike is that now, WordPress has stopped development on the orignal p2 theme which could be self hosted. How much of the hosted p2 is different than the theme ? No idea. https://wordpress.org/themes/p2/
This is what i believe goes against the open principles evangelized by WordPress.

Completely agree with the objective usability points mentioned in this.
This is what Bruce Tognazzini and Don Norman both of whom were first few interface designers are Apple, also wrote the Human Interface Guidelines. https://www.theverge.com/2015/11/16/9743996/apple-designer-i...

I would love to apply this simple yet effective framework for a Non-Enterprise application.
The EAR of this hEARt has no significance in this equation.
Engagement for Enterprise Application is Forced, Enterprise execs Buy Products and make the people under them live with it.
Adoption: on similar lines to Engagement.
Retention: Enterprise, the retention is not to be questions, users are locked-in till the time the application is paid for.
