A part of me had hoped Windows phones would have succeeded. But, I understand why it didn't succeed.
I had a Lumia 928 for a brief time. I loved the interface and the phone. But it really lacked apps. Unfortunately, iPhone and Android already had too much of a foothold. It is much easier to develop apps for 1 or 2 platforms than it is for 3 or 4. So, the top 2 platforms win.
I'm not a fan of Trump (at all), but I think it is a little early to tell if they drop in tourism is a result of his policies and administration. It would be interesting to see graphs from previous years, to see if tourism drops or spikes at certain times of the year (on average). I imagine there is usually a drop in tourism to the northern states, in the winter time, which would affect overall tourism to the USA.
It is certainly possible that his administration could have affected the tourism, but I don't think the supplied data/graphs show us enough history to come to that conclusion.
My first language was BASIC, in various forms. My first computer was a Commodore VIC-20 and my school had Commodore 64's, so Commodore BASIC was my first language. My next computer was an Apple IIc, so then it was Applesoft BASIC. When I was a senior in High School, the Commodore 64's were replaced by IBM PS/2's, so I also learned some GW BASIC.
The first language I learned in college was Pascal. Followed by COBOL, FORTRAN, C, C++ and Assembly. Java, html, perl, and python did not exist yet.
As a UNIX/Linux administrator, I mostly "program" in bash/ksh shell script, with a little python sprinkled in.
I'm very disappointed in this article and the fact that slashdot would even post it.
