That machine would be very different from my gaming PC however. I could use it exactly like a console, which is a different use case than a desktop PC.
I have a Steam Deck. All you have to do to use it like a desktop PC is to connect a cheap hub with power delivery, HDMI and USB ports for keyboard and mouse, then boot into KDE Plasma which is a regular desktop environment.
Honestly, my SD has seen more use as a stationary PC than a handheld :-P
What I find funny is that these kind of quotes are often used to mean that older generations will always criticize younger generations, no matter what. At the same time, those critics' civilizations all collapsed, sometimes catastrophically. Maybe these critics happen when a civilization ends. Maybe not.
Admittedly I'm only dabbling on a hobby level when it comes to video editing and composition. For what I've been doing Blender has been more than sufficient. It has a pretty good track editor a la Premiere and you can use the composition pipeline to enhance visuals.
Of course Blender also provides everything you'd need for visual effects, tracking and separate passes since it's a full 3D suite as well.
https://shotcut.org - has done fairly well for me. I believe `DaVinci - Resolve` is a paid tool which also has a free linux version (with restrictions).
Honestly, video editing can be crashy and resource-intensive so don't be afraid to pay for something.
Two years ago, I tried video editing for the first time. It was a small project, a 15 second video with multiple video and audio tracks, some basic white balance and color correction, and minor animations. I tried the 3 major FOSS video editors at the time, OpenShot, ShotCut, and KdenLive, in order to figure out which one was more appropriate for me. I also watched some tutorial videos on each of the video editors. My conclusion was that OpenShot was too basic for even such a small project, KdenLive was usable but lacked some tools which made editing somewhat burdensome, and ShotCut was the winner with its toolset and UI, although it crashed the most out of the three.
However, even with such a simple project, none of the three FOSS tools were easy to use, and all were barriers to my efficiency and creativity. I then searched for commercial offerings, and have been using Davinci Resolve, where even the free basic version was light years beyond the FOSS choices in terms of speed, ease of use, and features. As someone who uses FOSS tools (GIMP, Inkscape) for ideological reasons, I was a bit disappointed by how large of a gap there was between FOSS and commercial video editors. I haven't looked at the FOSS versions since then, perhaps they have improved.
And only $300. Once. Resolve is amazing. It replaced both Premiere and AE in my studio. Not bad for something that used to cost about $600k. You can get away with a hell of a lot in the free version as well.
What if the interviewer is looking for a true teammate and is put off by your attitude, and thinks you are greedy and selfish, a mercenary? You lose that good job with a test that lumps together the best and the worst actors.
'a true teammate and is put off by your attitude, and thinks you are greedy'
True teammates are cool, but is he prepared to feed my family and adopt my children in case I get killed by a bus?
What is the extent of mutual sacrafice 'true teammates' are gonna do for each other? Or is it a manipulative boss getting you to sacrafice family for the sake of the business? Or is is a naive idiot getting both of you to sacrafice for the business?
Yoy responsibility is to family and yourself first. Jobs come and go.
Most of us are here at our jobs because we need to earn a living, and not because we just love scrum so much that we'd do it even if we had to do it for free.
Of course you'd want to maximize your pay. Any coworker who drinks the Koolaid and doesn't understand that isn't a coworker I'd want to be with.
If I remember correctly the rules for minimum inheritance, it’s actually (n-1)/n of the inheritance has to be dedicated to the children, where ‘n’ is the number of children.
Each child is entitled to 1/n of that.
If I have 5 children, I have to give them 4/5 of the inheritance. Each one will have 1/5 of that 4/5.
And in the case of a sole child, she must receive 100% of 50% of the inheritance, at least.
OK. That makes more sense (except (n-1)/n=0 when n=1). In New Zealand too, you're required to give some inheritance to each of your children. There isn't a formula but lawyers seem to have observed that a minimum of about 10% each is acceptable.
