"let it crash". The core idea behind it has to do with the fact that modern applications have a huge number of states that they can find themselves in. The more complex your application is, the more variables you need to keep track of everything. Eventually it becomes impossible for developers to predict all combinations of state that these variables will form. Once your app gets into an undesirable state, the best thing you can do is to reset it and start from a fresh, well known and correct state

The study published yesterday in Science Advances points to satellite observations that revealed expanding vegetation worldwide during much of the 1980s and 1990s. But then, about 20 years ago, the trend stopped.

Since then, more than half of the world’s vegetated landscapes have been experiencing a “browning” trend, or decrease in plant growth, according to the authors
