Hello.
I'm Aleksandar Vacić, professional web developer and wine maker in the making.
Learn more about me or see what I can do for you.

Hmm…say again?
This is in Windows Explorer, copying/moving files across networked disks.
Given my experience so far in big software projects, this kind of bad UI is direct consequence of the background API being done before front-end people had any say. At the moment when front-end work came to play, there was probably no info to determine is the current operation a copy or move, so they did what they could. Or it could be sloppy FE work, but I somehow believe it’s the former.
Lots of ramblings on this blog...might be easier for you to find your juice through these tags:
