this needs to be one of the highest rated comments squarely due to how much luck (or gruelling prep) is involved in effectively memorizing answers, i.e. the issue with technical interviews to begin with.
Affinity Photo has already been my go to for performance reasons (how is it so usable and snappy on an old iPad???). exciting to see it get faster yet.
i think "evolution" is not some purely natural process that plays out separately from how we think. e.g. forming societies where we support and elevate each other instead of competing is also a potential evolutionary future. societies where whatever means are necessary _results_ in an evolutionary advantage will "win", not those who necessarily work harder. capitalism-driven competition is just gamification of exploitation and doesn't inherently lead to an evolutionary advantage. it's just one of many ways to get there.
right, i'm not making a new claim. i'm saying, that's one of the few conclusions we can draw from this data. it doesn't say anything about e.g. catching covid at the hospital, whether existing data on health consequences and mortality is less relevant, or that "covid is mild / just a flu" as some people seem to be concluding.

this problem doesn't exist if you correctly math out your existence to guarantee survival. having the ability to choose how to spend your time is the definition of agency.
why should we compete? what does "victory" amount to? i'd gladly give up winning in favour of some form of survival guarantee and freedom to choose work rather than require it for survival.
i'd argue the danger is even greater with tests bc the entire point of tests is to provide certainty. wrong tests are a false sense of safety that's unquantifiable without understanding every single line.
ignorant q: does Messenger still hold much of market share? over the last few years almost all of my contacts transitioned to WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal. Messenger is just way too bloated.
im providing a counter-example to the OP's point, and saying that people choosing not to remain farmers is not a sufficient explanation for decline in the number of small farms. the author clearly proposes many other reasons. see other responses to the message.
apologies if i'm coming across condescending or am missing your point but i'm having difficulty comprehending how the author staying on the farm would've fixed anything about the trend towards monopolization fuelled by corporate subsidies and other forms of preferential treatment coupled with those larger actors facing limited responsibility for any of the consequences to surrounding communities and environment?
that conclusion doesn't necessarily follow though. the proposed thesis by the article author is difficulty of having enough cattle to break even. you need to make enough to grow your operation, which is difficult given that you rely on external factors like creameries. the only reason you only have your family's labour to rely on could also be the difficulty of scaling up.
what a strange point. "the obvious" is not that there's concentration of power but that farming is hard? what about small farms where many people are happy to continue working because they find it fulfilling?
i work with MF too. im just saying the argument of "digital came and made analog irrelevant" doesn't really apply for me where I personally prefer 35mm over digital, let alone MF where you have "megapixels for days"
> But then digital happened and both lenses and sensors outgrew anything analog.
maybe if you can afford an 80MP digital back with MF lenses? i still prefer 35mm compared to full-frame sensors but i'm more after latitude and colour rendition than sharpness.
really cool resource for learning but a lot of these have nothing to do with k8s, beyond the company in question having k8s as part of their stack (i'm addressing the possible perception of the post title suggesting k8s horror stories).
i dont think anyone submitting an unsolicited PR should be expecting it to be merged in. it's a way to convey a complete idea, not a guarantee of merging.
