It's kinda like hollywood accounting where no movie produced in the last 100 years made a dime, yet they keep making them for some reason.
That's why you never see a simple plan like we pay 80% and that's that. YTou see we pay 80% of 70% of the bill after x amount but below y amount provided this that and the other condition are met within x time but not more than y time so long as it happens because of z, but not on alternate Tuesdays or during the gibbous moon on Friday.
One dirty trick is that the out of pocket maximum only counts particular treatments they cover. If the non-doctor at the insurance company decides you didn't need something expensive (or that it was necessary but done by the wrong doctor), you're screwed.
Long term prospects and stability are also perfectly valid business goals.It may make sense for a short term investor if you double profiots now at the costy of flaming out next year, but it doesn't make sense for the business itself.
I didn't say it's unregulated, I said it's inadequately regulated. A linear regulator, for example could explain the heating issues if the power supply doesn't sag.
Lost in the noise. There's too many boomers refusing or unable to retire. By the time they finally do, we will be of retirement age but unable to retire.
Standardizing parts would help a lot. In this case, for example, it's a lot of screens and such that have nothing to do with the problem that SHOULD be going into the spare parts bins for repairs.
Seasoned veterans don't NEED to do the things students do, because they're already up to speed. Anything beyond extra study to come up to speed you imagine is another word for being taken advantage of by a sleezy employer.
Now if you can explain how a comment about starting a career is applicable to a seasoned veteran, you might just weasel out of it.
As for the rest, you are being snotty because I didn't fall on my knees and kiss your feet when I saw your obviously divine correctness. Mighty big attitude for a willing slave boy. I doubt very much that you have any relevant knowledge to judge what is or is not current technology in any of the areas I mentioned.
And note, while starting a career has always involved some after hours studying, it didn't always involve working stupid long extra hours. The new guy went home with everyone else.
I'm not saying the Note 7 situation is fine (it isn't even vaguely OK), just that Apple isn't perfect either. Google "exploding iPhone" if you don't want to take my word for it. Do feel free to report back.
It's the most plausible explanation given the stated facts.
It's OK-ish as long as they take the thermals into account and the device won't heat dangerously. If the heat is a real danger, they should use a different regulator that chops the input rather than "burning it off".
To know for sure, the charger should be placed under load and the voltage drop measured. But it would have to be WAY off spec to cause a heating problem that noticeable.
In a properly designed phone, the internal charge circuitry will regulate the voltage down to maintain a safe charge rate. In a poorly designed phone, they depend on the charger not being capable of providing a dangerously high charge current. In that case, the "approved" charger will have voltage sag reducing the charge rate. When that is the case, if you use a high capacity power supply that doesn't sag, the battery may blow.
That's because rather than regulating the charge current inside the phone like they're supposed to, they rely on the external charger being sufficiently wimpy to have a voltage sag.
Actually, you claimed that the 40 hour workweek has never been a thing for professionals.
As for the rest, if you think embedded devices and microcontrollers are somehow obsolete, I would say you're either living under a rock or you have a bad case of the sour grapes. If it's the former, perhaps if you weren't so busy making charitable contributions to your employer's yacht fund, you would have time to notice these things.
If you don't remember the argument you were trying to make it's probably because you keep working past the point where fatigue saps productivity. I suggest you scroll up a few messages to remind yourself what you were saying.
As for the rest, This month actually except for the BIOS. Working smarter has it's advantages.
You're sounding more than a little defensive there.
Unless you are writing your own performance reviews and get to decide on your own raise and other advancements, you noticing makes not one whit of difference and adds no support to your previous argument.
How would leaving on time hinder you from working on free software in your free time?
So that leads to the next question, who notices if you leave promptly at the end of office hours?
As for my work, it's quite interesting actually. I have at various times delved into supercomputing, BIOS, embedded hardware and microcontrollers. Hardware and software.

In America, we put the dollar sign before EVERYTHING else.

This may clarify.
Same reason it's still breaking and entering even if the door isn't locked.
And if you believe sales is everything, it' just a bunch of guys selling rocks to each other.

Well, if we STANDARDIZED as I was saying, those screens would likely fit other phones. Rather than being landfill.

If he's the tail end of the boomers, he may not have gotten to vote when Reagan won.

That was before we knew it has been going on since 2006.
Then how do you explain the heating issue claimed when the "wrong" USB power supply is used?

Enjoy your sour grapes and cool aid.
Ever designed such a circuit?
Note that Apple sure seems to think that can happen since when the battery blows, they blame the charger.

The primary level being it's *APPLE*?

Pretty much our courts routinely weild their considerable power with all the care and due diligence of a toddler with an Uzi.
How quickly they forget. OK, it was an iPod rather than a phone, but they have had their issues.
