I hate popovers. This one not only covers the whole screen, it opens the virtual keyboard because of auto focus. So people actually subscribe like that? I don't. I leave.

Unfortunately all of those dark patterns actually do work statistically speaking, that’s why they’re so prevalent. It really sucks because it means they’ll never stop.
Really nice article, except for the work time section. Can we start to agree that overtime should not be normal? (To be fair, I don’t work in an industry with actual emergencies. There’s always tomorrow or next week. So maybe I’m missing perspective here.)
Well that, and the being laid off. At my (unionized, European) company it’s usually the longer you’ve been with the company, the more secure your job is.
@Mad_Punda it’s funny because the name “overtime” loses meaning when it becomes normal. I hereby propose the name “overovertime” (I’m good at names that’s why I’m a great programmer)
This is a fantastic article. As a junior dev myself, I find that I share some of these misconceptions about our Senior Devs (who seemingly know everything when I ask them a question haha). Thanks for posting.
I don't think anybody ever believed any of those things.
I sure didn't. And now that I'm a senior dev, I was right 😬
