Eftersom vi haft både Jobs och Susan Kare här på bloggen kan det ju vara värt att länka till ytterligare en pionjär på området: en intervju med David Gelernter i The Economist nyligen.

“’From its very beginnings, the software industry has suffered from having too many engineers’, says David Gelernter, a professor of computer science at Yale University. ’There are too many people who love computers and too few who are impatient with them.’
He blames his fellow technologists for making computers too difficult for non-specialists to use effectively. ’The industry doesn’t grasp the fundamental lack of sympathy between, conservatively, at least half the population and the software they’re using.’ ”
