I sometimes wonder why some programmers don’t use vim. Aren’t they lazy enough to be bothered about unnecessary work and “friction” you have to deal with when using ordinary editors. I’d rather do the interesting parts of the job and command the computer to do the rest. Of course the communication with the computer has to be as concise, as effortless, and as easy as possible.

There are a host of other deliberate annoyances Amazon has created to make sure the tablet is used for their purpose rather than your own.

Do you have some examples? Sounds both horrible and interesting.
