The article says its hurting business. Its also an inefficent use of space and blocks throughfares. The space is designed with the lateral queues in mind.

I understood this to be a comment on the fact that a text interface has a lower affordance than a graphical interface. A command line doesnt suggest what you can do in the way a graphical interface can.So even if you have industry standard keywords, a user has to know/learn them. I see it as similar to the buttons versus screens debate in car interfaces.

A lot of the new redevelopment that is going on is in areas where the Tokyo Metropolian goverment have relaxed/suspended the old zoning laws etc, hence the fact the new development is all big high rises, and more identitkit than previous development stuff. So is it more of a concern than it was historically

It is a british phrase. I think the most commmon usage is 'put a rocket up their arse, or 'put a rocket under them; It's similar to 'light a fire under'. It means to suggest getting somebody who has been previously sluggish in acting, to act quicker.

I had a similar thought untill I read that actually for or people with motor/muscle issues issues, a push button or something like the lever in the above which doesnt require physical strength is much easier.

I think the original introduction of the button was due to accessiblity. my understanding is that on newer planes they are trying to move towards a similar system for the same reasons.

As far as I know, the audience for gov.uk forms is teams that have no developers. So for that audience, email is very much the right approach.

Often the thing you are replacing is 'fill in this pdf and email to this inbox', so it allows people to improve things for external users without changing their workflow.

Building stuff is always impressive so well done on that. For me it feels a bit like you are saying the audience for this is 'people who want their friends to pay for them to do stuff'? My question would be if I know these people socially, why do I need a website to handle this?

As others have said, I think there are fairly clear mental models for exchanging money: charity or jobs. At the moment, what you seem to be describing is a jobs model, but with added complications such as a campaign and a set end date?. Its not clear me what value I get as a person paying things as a result of these added steps, so why would I use this over another market place?

My understanding is that the main cause for failure was being brought up by private equity, loaded up with debt, and then being hit by huge interest rate rises.

Given the amount of user research that is done on the guidance that is added to the design system, I would imagine they've tested it with users and found it works.

It also fits in with their style guide, which talks about writing in a conversational style, https://www.gov.uk/guidance/content-design/writing-for-gov-u...

I mean surely questioning current ways of working is how you stay innovative and respond to a changing world? it feels odd to imply they have reached peak innovation and should just stay the same.

the challenge I've always seen with putting the user hat on on so to speak is the difficulty in behaving as though you don't know how it works. I've seen enough user research where things that were obvious to the tram were not at all to the user.

It sounds more like an umbrella company than a chambers if I reading it correctly. in that they aren't finding you work like a chambers would

It feels like you are suggesting that under a certain amount looking at images of children being sexually abused or tortured shouldn't have an impact on mental health? For me personally I think even a single image like that would haunt me.
