Yeah, it's our (consumer's) fault for using the commerce system.
Even though we consumers may not even know that this service is used on behalf of us.
The whole system is ridiculous.

What about the chili-heads that ALWAYS have hot foreheads?

Tomorrow's Insider News:
Managers in Fortune 500 companies are installing thermal imagining sensors in their cube farms to monitor how hard worker bees are thinking. It is yet to be determined whether thinking harder gets you promoted or fired.
Next Week's Insider News:
ThinkGeek announces a new product -- a forehead heater -- which, besides keeping your head warm as freezing cold air condition blows on you from overhead vents, can spoof thermal imaging devices that measure how hard your thinking. It comes with several pre-programmed settings from brain-dead (manager material mode) to Einstein (updating your resume mode).

Didn't they try this before with windows xp embedded?

Wasn't that just letting you not install things like calculator or windows media player on top of the normal image customization that they let IT depts do? Basically just a lot more control of user facing bits vs ripping out big chunks of what was build as a monolithic OS.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

IIRC, the customization level was greater - you could add/remove various subsystems - video, network, etc. You also built a system containing only the drivers needed - no detection of new hardware.

Both Flow and TypeScript are pretty good, and conservatively either of them can prevent about 15% of the bugs that end up in committed code. This is my shocked face

Upgrades should require 'little or no refactoring' for most projects, but there are some breaking changes. Just in case this is your cup of pre-JavaScript
And TypeScript isn't your type, and Dart misses the mark. OK, I'll get my coat now.
