For some reason, I really hate when websites use "my" or "I" instead of "your" and "you"; it feels patronizing, like they're trying to help us understand what's happening.

Also the example given at the end of the article has a simple solution:

> Do you want to share your profile photo?

=> YES / NO

Why would we need to repeat the question in that case? This is not ambiguous.

Ambiguities sometimes exist, though; my favorite is this one (not related to what's discussed here):

Do you want to cancel?

=> Ok / Cancel

Reminds me of the old "Press Enter to exit" messages.

I hate that one with all my soul. There are several variations where the answers are completely ambiguous. This is frustrating when you need to, say, print something, but gets dangerous when this is a destructive action ("Do you want to delete this? This action is IRREVERSIBLE"")

		> Do you want to delete this? This action is IRREVERSIBLE Every so often, I’ll check this github issue[0] from 2017, which requests that the various prune commands for docker (e.g. “docker image prune”) have a dry-run flag to display what will actually be deleted. These commands have a warning that data may be deleted, which requires user confirmation to continue, but don’t actually tell you what actions will be performed based on that confirmation until after the deletion has been performed.
