<p>If you are doing any architectural work, whether at the software or infrastructire level, I fail to see how you can deal without diagrams to 1/ understand interactions between all system components 2/ make your changes understood and validated by relevant people.<p>Granted I speak about real, useful, technical diagrams, whose purpose is to convey useful information and highlight data flows. Not marketing diagrams you may find on marketing presentations, but this is not what this discussion is about.</p>

<p>> something getting close to human intelligence<p>This seems very <i>very</i> far fetched. If I understand correctly, these cell brains just respond to some stimuli, it does not seem more intelligent than any automat to me, just creepier.</p>

<p>And what do you suggest EU does if Trump decides to invade Greenland ? Going to war against Putin could be considered, but trying to fight <i>both</i> Trump and Putin would be suicidal.<p>Unfortunately it seems the only option at the moment is to wait for American people to wake up and replace Trump in two years from now ... If they ever have the opportunity to vote again of course.</p>

<p>>  If I was an IC at an airplane manufacturer and a bug I wrote caused an airplane crash - who is legally responsible?<p>I am not sure it is that complicated, from a legal perspective. It is the company hiring you that would be legally responsible. If you are an external consultant, things may get more complicated, but I am pretty sure that for critical mission software companies wouldn't use external consultants (for this particular reason but also many others)</p>

<p>This is the good answer. Also to get even better results you can project on a specific small screen using a mirror so you have an even better image. Due to 8mm low quality there is no gain from scanning.</p>
