No matter how strong someone appears, they have vulnerabilities. In reality, such a person often forgets that their strengths come from their weaknesses. Even if you concentrate too much on your strong points, your weaknesses can be easily uncovered. Someone who gets disappointed or angry when things don’t go their way reveals their vulnerabilities too easily. If I slightly disagree or irritate the person, they can be easily manipulated. A truly strong person does not openly display their strength or weakness. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Design ethics is an essential field of study. You may wonder if ethics play a role in design, but they are crucial, particularly in terms of addiction. Slot machines, for example, are four times more addictive than other gambling games. This heightened addiction is mainly due to the variable rewards these games provide. Some designers view this addiction as a means to increase profits. A classic example is a screen with an infinite scroll function, which can lead to excessive time consumption. This occurs because the game’s rewards are unpredictable, and some designers tie this addiction directly to revenue generation. Therefore, ethical considerations are vital across all domains. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
