Sony typically sells consoles at a loss and makes profits from the game sales. The likes of USAF, researchers, and other companies were buying PS3s in bulk, and using OtherOS functionality without utilizing the primary use of PS3s: games. Often these projects didn't need any GPU power, and OtherOS had nearly full access to the CPU (iirc it had access to the main PPE and 7 out of 8 SPEs). Thus, Sony likely was not making enough money from the consoles USAF et al. bought.
I am aware that running macOS on non-Apple hardwade would be against their ToS.
That's correct! Michael Kölling, one of the original authors, was a lecturer who wrote it originally. All of OOP classes were taught with BlueJ, but we were allowed to other editors, though not many did.

I'm surprised Oxford University is unable to handle the load from HN. Someone already posted the archive.is link.
I work with them daily, and have done so for 4 years now. It still sucks.
Unfortunately it's (Terraform, not TFE/TFC) the best in its class, and quite frankly I'm not smart to solve its issues.
I don't like take home tests either, but the point of them is removing the bad candidates from the pipeline so that people who interview them (often ICs, and these are some of the biggest expenses within the company) don't waste time on someone that is unlikely to be qualified.
Personally when I'm interviewing and I get take home tests I choose my battles. I only do them if I really want the job. If it is worth my time.
It's unfortunate, but take home tests are a necessary evil until something better comes along.
Comparing that with a neobank that runs K8s, successfully might I add, who has outdated software, and only recently started investigating upgraded.
The same configuration issues you mention has nothing to do with containers, as doing an apt-get install often has the same issues. It has everything to do with people using tools they have little understanding of. I'm talking about mysql, and mongodb, not docker.
If you are going down this route, do be careful with performance. I don't know which is more performant as I've never really had to work with large data sets, but I can't help but feel jq will be faster than gojq in such case. I have no benchmarks backing this up, but who knows, maybe someone will benchmark both.
One of my favourite features is the fact that error messages are actually legible, unlike jq.
