"Elitist" is just a smear term used by those who think that everyone deserves a trophy. The article sadly confirmed this rush to judgment.
When Wired first started to publish, I subscribed (hard copy). Sic transit gloria. Another one, for you UK folks, is The Economist. In the mid 90s, I told an American colleague that "The Economist is to Time as Time is to People." It's now nothing but a mouthpiece for establishment thinking, received wisdom, and similar claptrap.

Programmers gets worries not because they think that user creating small DBs will render them unemployed. They gets worries, because they know that after this small user creation outgrows original limitations of "no-code" tools or original creator moves on, it will end up on the programmer laps with unreasonable expectations - "if John Dow w/o any background did that much for virtually no time, you surely can do just a bit extra without much effort also...". And since everyone and their uncle seems to be able to do it, they surely do try. At our company the surveys found out that there are over 4,000 MS Access databases, that original owner is not available to support and now IT is responsible for.

No, it can't.
My smart phone is usually at home, I'm not used to talking it out for walks. If it goes with me, it is without WiFi and Bluetooth to save battery life (and a bit paranoid maybe). As far as my phones are concerned (yes, there's two), I'm always at home, and always stationary within 2 meters.
Your neighborhood can tell if you behave like that. And the envious one will ask you were to get those drugs. I sold him a bag of parsley. Will be taking the long route to the groceries for a month or two.

Mmmm...
This is a good philosophical question...
Is now Apple more susceptible to get attacked because there are a lot of bad developers targeting Apple and opening bugs?
Is now Apple more susceptible to get attacked because the more usage exposes the natural vulnerabilities that were swept under the carpet before? (A.k.a. security by obfuscation / secretism)

Quote: Alt + Tab
This version of Windows 10 will also change the way you use the At + Tab keyboard shortcut.
Currently, Alt + Tab app switcher allows you to switch between the open windows of your apps, but in version 20H2, Microsoft says it has updated Alt + Tab to show your browser tabs right alongside your apps.
The highlight of the update is an attempt by a clueless of a PM (probably the same one who bitterly fought to prevent the addition of tabs to IE on the grounds that they'd make it harder to use - "it's much easier if all two or three sites you have open at the time are in their own windows" - years ago) to render alt-tab unusable for anyone who keeps more than a handful of browser tabs open.
On the plus side the initial damage will be limited because it'll only be enabled for new-edge.
On the minus side, that means if Chrome/Firefox end up adding support for it a year later, ruining alt-tab for everyone, the anti-feature will have been around long enough for MS to really dig their heels in and refuse to un![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) windows because the feature has been present for over a year, and weirdos running only 1 or 2 tabs at a time on have fallen in love with it.
