I about fell off my chair laughing with how slow closing the "how can we help" popover was. If I had to write a backstory for this I'd say some dev was really proud of animating that and wanted to make sure everyone noticed it.
I am a UX designer with 30 years of digital design experience, 20 of those in UX/UI design. In my opinion, UX is dead. Companies don't want it. They still think they want it from a competition standpoint, but in terms of what value UX brings, they don't care and would prefer not to have it. UX in corporations is purely a political thing now. It used to be that commerical activity on the internet was not allowed. This…
Technology is evolving and expanding so quickly that there's exponential need for good design. I'm happy to hear you're getting out of UX though. I wouldn't want to go to a doctor who blatantly calls the whole medical industry a sham.

I’m surprised the back button on my browser wasn’t hijacked. Too many mainstream sites do this.
My favorite part was how s-l-o-w-l-y the "How Can We Help?" dialog sank when I clicked Send to Bottom. I also appreciate how it would reappear and block the interface. But kind of disappointed it didn't instantly reappear if you moused over it. Or that it didn't randomly bounce for attention in my peripheral vision. And to the person out there thinking of making a front end framework based on this, just don't do it m…
Who the fuck is implementing these things and how do they justify this shit as contributing to the user experience? I came to your aite to read an article, not to be bombarded with ridiculously distracting prompts, banners and subscribe prompts - and this completely ignoring the intrusiveness of the ads with autoplaying video and audio.
Shit like this really makes me rethink visiting sites like Wired, though they are by far not the only ones doing this, just the one that happened to me today.
Why do web devs think this a good thing to do? Pull this crap in a desktop, sure as he'll would uninstall.

Cookie banners are only really required if you're doing things like using them for "personalizing ads" and the like. If your cookies just there to check if you're logged in and other essential functions, you don't need a banner.
What about if you want to A/B test on a non-logged-in user?
Seriously? There's tons of stuff missing, at the very least a cookie banner ("we value your privacy not ") and "aw, snap, we're having probs to bla blah blah" and social media icons. Also, it's known that call-to-actions must come in a group of three, and have cute vectors. See [1] on how to do a website. [1]: https://www.reddit.com/r/web_design/comments/9pmqxb/typical_...
Then you have an actual bow. Like in archery. Next to a bowtie. Ok fine.
"Select all pictures of glasses"
Now you have a glass window. And glasses, as in spectacles.
Holy crap, that triggers me.
