  • Once I have sent a very acid e-mail to ‘All’ = a few thousand people in the company, including all bosses, when I had enough of how badly all our bosses behaved.

    I had not written anything wrong, so it took them a while :-) and then I got a lengthy reprimand about one or two bad words I had used, and they said these were not officially allowed (of course such a list of disallowed words did not exist at all, but who cares LOL).

    I decided to leave this mess, but in my time, so I started looking and then quit when I had found a better job.















    1. Because stupid consumers have accepted it

    2. Because the spec for “contrast” can reach very much higher numbers when measured in ideal conditions on such a “bathroom mirror” display than on a matte one. Ideal conditions include a totally dark room with no ambient light whatsoever, and the measurement is taken exactly vertically to the screen’s surface

    Of course, matte displays actually look better in real world conditions.
