iOS 10 chose to hide controls in places that users (old or new) would have no idea where to look. The shuffle button for the Music app is a great example, see: http://osxdaily.com/2016/09/16...
I would love to hear someone explain who thought this was a good idea, and why they thought that way.
So many people say they want to go, but I find it amusing that of the handful of space tourists since 2001, very few have written inspiring books or stories about it. A quick check of Wikipedia seems to indicate only Guy Laliberté (flew in 2009) as authoring something about his experiences.
If going to space is so great, why haven't the few who've gone written more about it?
I'm not sure if "Research Institutes" count in your criteria, but as far as software for dealing with maps, http://www.falconview.org/ comes immediately to mind.
I am a homeschooling Dad with an S.M. in EE/CS. I choose to teach "programming" to one of my kids who was interested using David Eck's Introduction to Programming Using Java back in the 2000 timeframe. The course material was free online, and was very adaptable to the high-school-level. My kid really liked it, and got a lot out of it, especially one of the client server projects and the Human-Machine-Interface (HMI) element. She later graduated as a very successful college CS major and took on a pretty nifty HMI-related job with one of the Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDC).
As in most subjects, interest level and match between curriculum and student are keys to success. I tried teaching the same course to another one of my kids, and she was uninterested (except for making web pages using HTML), so we never completed and moved on to something else. She ended up going into the social sciences. Your mileage will vary.

> I don’t know if any of the allegations against the Clinton’s are true,
Against the Clinton's what, may I ask...
I wonder where the servers will be housed?
You've sort of made my point. You would be telling other people how awesome it is, just not in book form. You'd be bragging about it.
Yet, of the people who have done space tourism before you, it is been eerily quiet about how awesome it was. Maybe it will be different for you,...
Yet, out of the Apollo days, so many of the astronauts wrote very compelling books about their experiences. Lovell, Aldrin, Cernan, and others.
I suspect space tourism is not as great as its cracked up to be, otherwise we'd be hearing from those who went how awesome it was.

It's the only way to be sure.
Not to state the obvious, but Sandwich is the name of a town.

No, it is for the same reason that men need to be told to put the seat down. In general people don't do things unless they HAVE to.

The 2003 Google paper http://static.googleusercontent.com/external_content/untrusted_dlcp/research.google.com/en/us/archive/googlecluster-ieee.pdf that describes this is still a fascinating read. Things may be different by now, but back then, their selection criteria for HW was reported as a capitalized "cost per query".
