From Steak Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchUnholy things:
- Excessive whitespace design (hard on the eyes)
- Javascript bloat (slow)
- Loading screens (slow)
- Pop ups (interruptions)
- Tracking, analytics (Breaks the golden rule. Perpetuates a rat race economy)(computers that take advantage of your behavior as you use them)
- Maze programs or websites
- Memory obfuscation (paging)
- Excessive dependencies / libraries (npm / node.js comes to mind)
- Dependence on an online/cloud service
- Having a program fail and not notify the user (failing silently)
- Security (a demonistic self perpetuating industry)(endless cat and mouse chase)
- Predatory computing (see tracking).
- Malware (doesn't exist in an honest world)
