Bad lithium batteries, Boeing 787 and a software solution?
This just showed up in the news radar.
I put this in 'Off Topic' because it is not directly related to Computers. But it is of interest for the technical implications.
Read this first.
US testing of lithium batteries alarms aviation officials
Then read this.
US aviation authority: Boeing 787 bug could cause 'loss of control'

The 787 has some of the most advanced designs, including software. But the problem seems to be batteries. Well, if so, then why did one authority say they would alter the control software?

What do you think? :)
