Another possibility is that you tend to keep an eye on where your phone and laptop are; there have been some plane fires where people drop a phone into a seat and it ends up getting bent, but at least they notice it fairly quickly. (Will pe

Hmm I guess you'll get this pile of used boards which hmm is not a great source of waste; but I guess they will get reused for a few generations. A problem is it doesn't seem to be just the chips that would be thrown but the whole

The UK has a big tungsten deposit; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemerdon_Mine Come buy our tungsten! (We'll throw in a choice of Eccles cake or Tunnocks tea cakes as a special offer)

That's ok, but I think if you spend a minute looking at that backtrace you'll see it's pretty obvious where you need to add a check.
