Computers in the B-29 central fire control system made corrections in three main areas to accurately aim the aircraft’s guns: ballistics, lead, and parallax.

No helpful content on my part, but I just want to say how much this question speaks to me. I'm a 54 year old statistician/business analyst and have always embraced change and technological improvements. It seems about 6 or 7 years ago things started to shift where many of the tools I used started making interface and functionality shifts with little to no documentation or support. Apps would update overnight, and the way developmental tasks were executed just didn't exist any longer. Then I would just wait till someone on reddit etc, found a solution or where the functionality was buried so that I could move on. I really hate turning into a curmudgeon.
