Contriving

This a long article about how the interaction of human beings and medical information technology systems led to a patient getting a dose of antibiotic 38x what he should have.

Personally, I would have preferred to read a straight post-mortem of the incident instead of this personal-interest version, but it's a good article nonetheless.

Too long for me to pull any quotes from.

As a software developer one of the main things that I took away from the article is that designing user interfaces is hard. It's been my experience that many people not in the field have a hard time understanding just how hard it is to design a user interface…which leads to the user interface development and design stages of a project being under-resourced.
