âoeI'd tend to argue that in truth, luck and a lack of motivation is why most companies and organizations haven't been hacked, not a crack team of employees.â
I couldnâ(TM)t agree more with this statement.
It's funny that you think an in-house state controlled system cannot suffer from data breaches.
What you are missing is a single developer can use Visual Studio Code AND Sublime AND Xcode. The only way it would add up to 100% is each developer only used a single tool.

Agree that today's browser based JavaScript is not a great language. But EcmaScript 2018 is getting there and the TypeScript transpiler is here today with type safety, classes, and interfaces. And don't forget the huge number of open source libraries from NPM and elsewhere. And don't tell me about bad libraries or fragile library dependencies that break when someone pulls their silly little left-pad string library. There is always room for improvement.
Your survey size of 1 is noted. How would even know that none of the people you know have never used an Electron based app?
Slack has 8 million daily users. The Electron based desktop app works exactly like the browser interface as you would expect due to large amounts of shared code. But many people I know prefer the desktop app. For me, the dedicated app makes it is easier to not get lost in a jumble of 20 open browser tabs.
Visual Studio Code has had millions of downloads. I couldn't find usage statistics but the Stack Overflow 2018 Developer Survey rated it the #1 most used IDE. https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2018/#technology-most-popular-development-environments
Electron + JavaScript is one of the most popular cross platform desktop app framework available today. The barrier to entry is low, which of course the gray beards on here will say is a bad thing. E+JS is delivering on the promise of Java desktop apps.

Every single web site you use including Slashdot, Gmail, etc etc has the plain text password available to the server. The hashing of the password with a salt runs on the server. This Github bug was simply that a developer wrote the plain text password to a log file during the authentication process. They didnâ(TM)t store the plain text password in a database.
This isn't a Microsoft specific issue. If a process is running on Windows or Linux and that process was using processor platform specific instructions (which it may have dynamically queried support for upon process startup) how is that process supposed to keep running on the other platform where the instruction doesn't exist?
The actual mention of offensive language specifically mentions "publicly display
"Don’t publicly display or use the Services to share inappropriate content or material (involving, for example, nudity, bestiality, pornography, offensive language, graphic violence, or criminal activity)."

Or it could be that the annual Microsoft developer conference started today so there are a lot of announcements coming out, some of which are making their way to the Slashdot front page.
Every single thing you said about licenses and CALs goes out the window with Office 365 enterprise subscriptions because it is rented by the month. And if you don't like Windows it also runs on Mac and subsets run on iOS and Android.
I can think of several Fortune 500 companies that use Office 365 based on info from friends and family that work there. I wouldn't be surprised if OneDrive was disabled for some of those users but many big companies have bought into renting Office, hosted Exchange, and hosted Skype for Business.Office 365 Enterprise E5 tops out at $35 per person per month and I am guessing gets much cheaper for large enterprises. That is dirt cheap for the value you are getting. My company was recently acquired and we went from Office 365 everything back to on-premise because that is the way the acquiring company runs their business and every single person complains about the capabilities and reliability that we lost in the transition.
This sounds like the Valet Me app from Amazon's short-lived Betas series. Don't you know that the more successful the app becomes, the less useful it is?!?
