How was that a decision not fueled by pure desperation? Who advised this beyond the consulting group that was previously working with Morgan Stanley? Oh my god
If I'm going to be relaying through to people strictly over text as much as I do these days, I better have a way to articulate it with the right emotional range to match my sparkling personality ✨
I find it's going to need to get even more convenient for the general public to be interested in it. Federation almost needs to be a 'background' process that the end user doesn't really need to deal with. Otherwise, it'll be a little too complicated or obscure to comprehend for most. I know it isn't rocket science but we're talking about the general public, here.
When you have to deal with quirks (and Adobe just progressively adding more 'quirks' to overcome) to use the programs you need to make your living, your initial claim of 'just use Linux!' still sounds like an unhelpful answer. I mean I use Linux daily but I still need to work in an ecosystem.
Regarding Picasso, use whatever for personal art but people use the "industry standard" so they know any of their colleagues can use my deliverable for anything they should need to is a novel thing. I have plenty of personal experience why deviating causes problems where you least expect it to. It's a shitty monopoly but I'm glad you have a means that allows you to work outside of it (keep doing it, it's a good thing!)
Sure, but when I'm a cog in a bigger machine I need to prioritize my work being able to be continued by others or else I'll be stuck making every single change on it that needs to be made in the future. The architecture we use to use the same PSD on AE projects and embedded webapps is essential to the system functioning as needed. Many, if not most places follow that same line of thinking and using a separate program that isn't intended for that inner-platform use. It might be kool-aid but it's a problem bigger than what OS I'd like to use.
Awesome perspective! I've worked with and around seriously depressed, possession hoarders for around a year and quite the majority were the type to call you randomly ultimately to chat about something or another. The exact priming situation that would fall into abusing LLM tech if offered easy access to it. This was before the days of Chatgpt but I do worry some of my old clients are falling into this situation but with far less nuance than your friend.
Finances until just recently. Now I'm timing a move since I just recently got a WFH job so I'm quite excited! We're trying to travel and see where we would actually like to live. Part of it now is that we've developed some amazing friendships that would be incredibly hard to leave behind.
And if you're new to cooking, try cooking your food a bit longer than you would usually. Taste it and decide if you enjoy the heavier caramelization. When I realized I should embrace the char, foods like mushrooms became so so so much better.
Espresso powder definitely has a better coffee flavor and I'd use that if allowed but instant still works well for quick work and light flavors. Always have some on hand for camping :)
