Simulink is a variation of flowchart programming, but maintainability is hard when it comes to flowchart programming. You need a football field or two to try to make sense of it and any large system will have cross-dependency graphs that are extremely hard to follow.
You are right, was a few decades ago I did chemistry.
Assume you refer to vowels by "a,e,i,o,u and sometimes w and y (at be if of up cwm by)", here it's "a,o,u,å,e,i,y,ä and ö" but never w. w and v are the same here.
Well, unless the pilot started the fire intentionally then I wouldn't blame the pilot for this one.
But we may be seeing requirements that chargers in the future should work at a wider frequency range in addition to voltages. Here in Sweden we also have 16 2/3 Hz systems, but those are on the railroad overhead lines and not something that people in general comes in contact with as it's converted to the more convenient 50Hz in the outlets of the trains.
And almost every AC adapter today is a primary switched type which rectifies the incoming power, then do a HF switching and a HF transformer to feed the secondary circuits.
It could be interesting to see if 400Hz even would be a problem for the adapters though. But my expectation would rather be that they won't work at all rather than start to burn.
That's the same thing in many trucks here in Europe, but what happens is that the device just dies. I have never heard that there have been even a smoke incident caused by plugging a charger into the high voltage outlet. And I have seen people do that mistake with laptop chargers - and they draw a lot more power than a phone charger.
It could be an interesting case too from the case of the responsibility of the owner of the device.
Depending on where you live it may be the owner of the device, not the user of the device that can be held responsible if there's a problem caused by the device.
Unfortunately one side-effect is also that if they don't get the data from all users then their experience data is getting skewed. So this means effectively that if only morons don't disable the telemetry and everyone else do, then they base their decisions on the user experience morons has and make an operating system suitable for morons based on that.
But we do need to tell them that we don't like being tracked all the time. There are limits to how far a government may go in many modern countries, but rarely how far a company may go. Like "freedom of speech", that's only limiting the government officials, never companies like Google, Microsoft or Facebook. But it should include them as well since the large companies are essentially virtual governments now.
The only way to solve this is to beat Microsoft at their own game by figuring out the telemetry data that's sent then spam them with faked data that's completely weird.
If enough people do that then the data they collect is useless.
Most of the problems for VR isn't resolution, even if it's good to have a good resolution. It's latency that causes problems where the users are suffering from vertigo due to the lag it creates.
Local IT support employed by the same company usually fixes stuff easily, outsourced IT support is another factor - an urgent fix takes 48 hours and that don't help you when you have a problem with the projector in a conference room with a high profile customer that has to be fixed in 5 minutes.
You have security as main task, but to do it right you need to have a full understanding of IT services otherwise it's just going to be a kludge security with no meaning and use for the company. If that means that you need to fix a printer driver in order to also get the security right then so be it. Otherwise you waste two hours filing a ticket for a printer driver update and another day to get the low level IT technician to come out and fix it - or do a hack fix with remote control from India that still don't correct the problem right.
Security at its best is something that the users never sees. Security at its worst is something that always constricts users from doing their job.
I agree, right now Google has changed so that Google Earth no longer is an application but you shall instead use Chrome. That adds to the bloat in Chrome.
A tool that can do "everything" is rarely very good on anything.
I agree, I did spend vacation in the US several years in a row from late 90's to the late '00s and it went from a pretty relaxed country to going downhill after 9/11 when it came to "public servants" behavior. From just a regular check of the passport and a friendly comment to don't mess with me or you'll regret it.

Congratulations, you just invented Simulink.
Simulink is a variation of flowchart programming, but maintainability is hard when it comes to flowchart programming. You need a football field or two to try to make sense of it and any large system will have cross-dependency graphs that are extremely hard to follow.

When I saw the title I first thought that the article was about PhosphorusSodiumChlorate.
Promises only takes you so far. And it's one thing to fulfill a promise, another to maintain it.
It would be fun to see where we end up at the next election. I think it's hard to find a candidate wilder than Trump.
The people behind House of Cards even complains that Trump stole all their ideas.
Olympiad is actually the time between the Olympic Games so that would be the least of the US problems right now.
It started to go downhill even before Microsoft took over.
That's only a problem if the toilets are in a single large room with stalls.
Forget that, make all toilets gender neutral. There's no need to have them gender specific.
And it's not a bathroom unless there's a bathtub in it.

Have you tried it, and did it start to smoke or did it just die?

The problem that has been revealed during the years is that anything can be relevant to security, even injection of buffer overruns through CSS.
Until there's a new contender coming up with something that the others don't have.
Personally I would like to see a browser with cross-site data access limitations to a greater extent.
He drained one swamp to get his swamp even larger.
Now it's a gamble over how long he will be in office.
Some companies have more meetings where issues are raised why they don't reach their goals than actual time over to do the work.
