We’re all shouting off a mountain. Hoping to be heard above the noise of others yelling.

We're still the human race, right? Like all the same species with slightly different variants?

Just checking for a friend.

I love when someone I look up to admits, "I have no idea what I'm doing."

I'm like, ME TOOO!

You have 2% battery left. What does your phone die doing?

You are accountable for what you say. Full stop.

I think a lot of people have come to terms with this in real life, but seem to think it doesn't apply online.

Haptics is usually subtle — tiny motors, soft feedback, quiet UX layers. But this month’s All Things Haptics is full of motion.

🛞BMW adds tactile steering
💻 Lenovo swaps clicks for vibes
💦Waterjets simulate touch
🏎️ Sim racing adds seat feedback

The guiding light of #haptics is also its Achilles' heel. Companies have spent years trying to make us ‘feel grass,’ but current consumer technology has fundamental limits.

I'm the kind of person that buys a kit to grow grass and then refuses to cut it because she saw something about how grass emits a signal notifying plants around it of danger.

Can't have the rest of my plants thinking I'm a monster.. 😅

An interface that changes as you interact with it requires visual attention, which is a bold choice for a hands-free experience.

This just makes sense.
Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating.

This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens.

(Even better: Tesla will hate this)
Cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn five-star safety rating in Europe
Euro NCAP will release new testing guidelines in 2026.
