Centering things is a graphic design problem, not a computer science problem.
As a computer science problem it ends at position = window center / 2 - object width / 2
Is not always this simple though. If the window has yet to be spawned in some languages the width will be unavailable, until after. Sometimes the window can be seen before it moves to the center which is a bit jarring.
That's a pretty good summary of the article actually.
The design is bad because the people who made the tools are doing a bad job.
The hardest graphic design problem is indıcatıng sarcasm in a way only autıstıc people notice.
Edit: this was sarcasm, and so is the artıcle's tıtle.
