*Hospital gets new patient information software* "Gee I wish the programmers had talked to some nurses and doctors instead of just other programmers"
*School gets new student assessment software* "Gee I wish the programmers had talked to some teachers and students instead of just other programmers"
*Construction company gets new materials tracking software* "Gee I wish the programmers had talked to some installers and estimators etc"
Just a trend I've noticed
non-programmers are an important part of open source projects. non-programmer contributions are valid and useful and not second tier or otherwise less valuable.
it's easy to say programmers are the only value-add when you're fortunate enough to have enough non-programmers that you can take them for granted.
if you take away the feature requests, translations, and general chatter - many OSS projects would have never been more than flawed, narrow use case tech demos.

Suelle Malen (14f) from Atelier Lydie & Suelle doesn't have money for food but seems to have infinite ammo for her guns. It's amazing that she hasn't shot her father who keeps spending the food money on art supplies. (and what kind of parent gives their starving teen daughter not one but two guns anyway?)

This is how you get the velociraptor robot uprising.
