It's pretty great, actually. You can also set it to run AppleScripts, which can call the shell. I have set up buttons in the touch bar for common tasks such as zipping an archive without .DS_Store crud in Finder, and for AirMail I have a button that creates a folder based on the subject line of the open email thread and saves attachments there. I have no idea how the Touch Bar is supposed to be useful by default, but I'm finding it quite nice with some work.
In the US much of this is supplied by the market, which seeks to increase its profits every year to provide value for stockholders. The government, having no need to profit, is able to provide services to its citizens much more affordably.
"MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2016) draws up to 85W. Use the Apple USB-C charge cable that came with your MacBook Pro, or a certified USB-C cable supporting 5A (100W), to power and charge your MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2016) at its full capability.
"MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) and MacBook (13-inch, Late 2016, Two Thunderbolt 3 Ports) draw up to 60W."

"You should not connect any power supply that exceeds 100W, as it might damage your Mac.
"Using a power supply that doesn't provide sufficient power can result in slow or delayed charging. It's best to use the power supply that came with your Mac.
"MacBook Pro can receive a maximum of 60W of power through the Apple USB-C VGA Multiport Adapter or USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter. For the best charging performance on MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2016), connect the power supply directly to your Mac."
English has 52 characters including both cases. Moreover, the ways in which these are combined to form words are highly inconsistent and idiosyncratic.
Chinese characters are made by combining 214 radicals, and most of the characters are written by combining two of these. Most words are created by combining two such characters. It's not really that much more difficult than remembering how to spell an English word.
程序 means program. 程序员 builds on this, not the individual parts of the constituent words.
Chinese is actually a very logical language. The writing system is arguably more complicated than it needs to be (see Victor Mair and his quixotic crusade for romanization), but it conceals a language with very flexible morphemes and simple grammar. I recently had to translate 照顾着 and 被照顾着 for an app, and I had a hard time coming up with concise and decent translations that mirrored the simple relational antonymity of the Chinese.
Not to mention that Mandarin would use 嘴（里）rather than 口
The pronunciations of kanji correlate to different Chinese eras and areas.
The usage and choice of characters are influenced by Classical Chinese, which was the literary language in Japan until, uhm, recently-ish.
There is a very good recent YouTube video that explains the usage of Chinese characters in Japanese and which I recommend to anyone interested in the subject:
Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of IKEA, is one of these fabulously rich Swedish people. He drives around in an old Volvo; and lives in a modest house. This is how he wishes to be seen.
The fact that he also owns several sports cars and a villa on the French Riviera, is not something he wants publicized.
