Photoshop and another art software (Clip Studio Paint, for example) require Windows (or a Mac). I could probably get away with using Krita instead (and I do use it on Windows as well) but my drawing tablet (Huion display tablet) doesn’t work on Linux. Somebody wrote a set of scripts for it and it kinda works but you loose some functionality.
There is also the guitar amp & fx modeling software, plus a bunch of other audio softwares that may or may not have a counterpart on Linux. And I did try Wine with mixed results.
So, if you’re just browsing the internet or doing software development, you’re probably good and can migrate, otherwise, that article is maybe too miopic.
If not for the law and the fines, the behavior of not wearing it wouldn’t have changed or, if it did, it would take much longer.

I know somebody who sells stuff at Amazon as a third-party seller. It’s a common strategy to do exactly that: find items that are selling for more than the local store, buy it from the local store and sell it on Amazon. There’s more to it for selecting which products to sell but this is basically how it works. There are people selling courses teaching these things.
I realized that my issue with this style of interview are not the questions, but this exactly. I can solve lots of Leetcode problems, some just take me longer than others.
It’s even worse when the interviewers behave like you described. Most I’ve met, luckily, were cool and just followed what I was doing eventually asking some questions and sometimes giving me pointers; the worse I’ve found would not accept any solution I proposed and would keep asking “how about not using extra space or how about solving in O(1) or how about you solve this in 5 seconds”. So freaking annoying.
Rockley Photonics has developed non-invasive optical sensors for detecting multiple blood-related health metrics, including blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood alcohol levels, many of which are only normally detectable with more invasive dedicated medical equipment. Rockley's sensors beam infrared light through a user's skin, much like the existing sensors on the back of the Apple Watch for detecting heart rate and blood oxygen levels.

Back to the subject at hand: Chrome is a memory hog and there’s nothing new here, but nice to see the comparison with Safari. Too bad Firefox wasn’t part of the test.
I wouldn't say this is on purpose but they are unaware of how WhatsApp is used everywhere else.
My team loves meetings. Every question asked was an excuse to gather a bunch of people around a desk and talk for almost an hour. Precious hours wasted in useless meetings. The best thing that happened with remote work was that my team realized that a single message or email was more than enough 99% of the time and now we don’t waste so many hours in those useless meetings anymore.
I don’t know, I’m afraid that even with all measures in place there are too many people that don’t believe the pandemics is real and don’t try even a bit to make their part as a member of the community.
Edit: typos.
Considering they are pretty much a monopoly, I doubt it. Unfortunately.
Not trying to defend their actions but I’d bet they were trying to avoid being put on quarentine in the hospital to later receive a hefty bill to pay.
