Software, Say You’re Sorry.

04/07/10 Joe

“Have you ever encountered a software error message that apologized for – or even admitted a mistake? Software is always quick to tell you what you did wrong, but it never seems to admit the possibility that it did anything wrong. In the real world, a person who always blames everybody else and never accepts responsibility for his own mistakes is quickly ostracized.”
