@AkadeBemsen Some people are evil.

This person is one of them.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

it's just horrible manners, and below that of a Muslim.

If a muslim sees that video, they should feel a sense of humility. Death can come to us in any moment, and so we must hasten to purify ourselves, so that when we die, we die upon a condition that is pleasing to our lord. Rather, that what appears there, which is a man who died upon Kufr, which is the worst thing that happen.

Allah's help is sought.

What is needed are strong rulers who maintain proper law and order to keep those wicked people in check.

This is true whether it's a Muslim country or not.

Unfortunately, there have been many power vacuums in Muslim countries over the last generation or two, which have allowed the worst opportunists to throw their weight around. Counter-points to this are places like the UAE, Oman, Indonesia, that have had stability, and this slowly leads to stronger governance one step at a time.

@LayoffAI I hate that they try to make it sound human or flawed. It's clearly deceptive.

@bellamaison33 This is AI.

@jessica_313_ Horrible manners. Horrible.

If a muslim sees that video, they should feel a sense of humility. Death can come to us in any moment, and so we must hasten to purify ourselves, so that when we die, we die upon a condition that is pleasing to our lord.

No. You know this is not correct.

The administering of capital punishment is not the responsibility of private individuals.

Islamic scholars have long held that only legitimate rulers, such as an emir, and their appointed judges can investigate crimes and impose punishments.

Armed lunatic groups that enforce their own punishments, such as ISIS, are unlawful insurgents and are themselves subject to punishment under the law.

Just normal food portions. I find eating extra makes you more hungry, while fasting all day makes you feel full quicker at night. We are supposed to break our fast with a small snack like dates and milk, and we should stop eating before we're full. Overeating is disliked in Islam, although many Muslims still do it.

If you try one day without food or liquid from daybreak (so a bit before sunrise), when the sky starts to brighten, until sunset, it's quite a challenge and satisfying to do.

@Aristotle7777 They frequently just sound like gay men. It's strange.

In hindsight, blanket long-term use of chemical oral contraceptives can't have been good for the healthy mental and physical development of a human.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

@Anyachi4ox He is wrong. A liar perhaps.

Islam prohibits such discrimination and wickedness.

He is conflating his cartoonish understanding of a few criminals who happen to be Muslim, with the religion which teaches us the opposite of what he's saying.

During onboarding, the user does not yet fully know how they want to use the product, and so they usually can't productively answer a bunch of questions or make a bunch of decisions they lack the context to commit to.

Onboarding should be as frictionless as possible.

You are correct.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

@_sun_yi You said UI designers will not be needed in 10 years.

I challange this assertion.

So long as humans can see, and there are interfaces to look at, humans will be opinionated about what these interfaces should look like, and these people will be called UI designers.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

That would be true if the advertisement actually showed what it looks like to say no, or to have and protect boundaries; such as saying no. Likewise, it doesn't show someone who has mistakenly overstepped a boundary accepting the limits the other person is asking for. The advert doesn't show any of that.

The advert simply presents what it describes as a problem but offers no solution. This is where it falls short and becomes confusing or unhelpful.

It could have showed the problem, and then show the solution to both parties. That would have been much better. There's a lot of room for improvement here.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

Understood, but I would dispute the suggestion that adverts should always provoke a reaction. Non-commercial adverts of this nature and sensitivity should be a public service, and should model good behaviour in a serious and dignified way.

This is not a novel or a movie where people expect a narrative or a story. This is a short publicly-funded 30-second advert intended to help; but it fell flat at doing that. Most likely causing most people to become dug-in to their priors.

I think it's a missed opportunity to educate and bridge some kind of gap in understanding on both sides of this discussion, and so there are definitely ways it could be better.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

@MightBeDD haha well you've made me laugh, all is well that ends well. Have a nice day/evening/night.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

Sure, boundaries are important. This advert does not teach anyone anything about boundaries. Not the children, not the grandparents. Nobody learns anything. It doesn't model good behaviour. It shows what it describes as a problem and provides zero solutions. It's unhelpful and weird and everyone is worse-off for it.

[Youssef • Designer & Developer @YS]

@MightBeDD Rather, the opposite. Too much thick curly middle-eastern hair. Shaving is much easier. Still I'm not sure why you're making this about my hair. The issue is about achieving healthy social order, including understanding what boundaries are.
