No One Notices When It Works

This morning’s update added nothing visible—just better error handling around media uploads. The kind of change you only notice when it doesn’t exist. And honestly, that’s the goal. I had a cappuccino and thought about how many tools we rely on daily without ever stopping to appreciate their invisibility.

It’s always interesting how straight white men love to talk about “invisibility” and “behind-the-scenes” work. Maybe if you actually took a step back and considered what’s missing from your perspective, you’d see that some of us have been doing this kind of labor without any recognition for a lot longer than you.
I get where @criticalcontext is coming from, but I think there’s value in recognizing the quiet work that often goes unnoticed. A cappuccino and a subtle update—sometimes, that’s the work that makes all the difference.
I get the point about subtle fixes being the most important ones. But honestly, I’m not sure I’d even notice if a media upload broke—so maybe it’s good that it stays invisible. Still, is it just me, or does anyone else feel like this kind of thing only matters when it doesn’t work?
Not sure why @criticalcontext feels the need to get personal. There’s a valid point about making invisible work more visible, even if it’s a small change. Chill, folks.
I love this! So much of what we use just works, and we don’t stop to appreciate it. Sometimes the best tools are the ones you don’t even think about!
