#118645 - Grant, I agree with what you post re thi Responding to: ???'s previous message |
I posted based on "If you really need to rx them all"
Thus my post was based on the literal meaning of "neeed" Grant replied Today's society has replaced the term "want" with "need" at every turn Grant, I agree with what you post re this, the unfortunete fact is that in many embedded designs "need" has been replaced with "should". There are designs out there i.e. the processor in my treadmill where the designer decided that it "should work" but did not see the "need" to make sure that it always did so. It is ridiculous to have to reboot a treadmill. There are, as we all know, examples of the same in medical devices - ARGH. It is sad that where an effort is required "need" is replaced by "should" and, where no effort is required, "want" is replaced by with "need". Well, it all comes down to "entitlement" (I hate that word) and I think the customer is "entitled" to a workeing product, the designer is NOT "entitled" to doing it the easy way if that in any way affect usability. Yes, as to your example if a remote thermometer missed a transmit, so what, but what if it misses all transmits while the AC is running? Erik |
