I think Christina Maslach, world expert on burn-out, highlighted these six factors as conducive to burn-out. I'm just a bad copycat but you can see her talk on the topic.

Absolutely, but we can also see that such needs are more likely to be met at the top of the hierarchy.

If you use the same backend... no. They are both native languages with "no room below". llvm vs icc could be a hit, but that's all really.

Not using the GC is rather easy, there are plenty of mitigation methods. Not using the D runtime is much more involved. Not linking with the D runtime is a more hardcore endeavour.

Because Hannibal did not have the six factors of burn-out: lack of control, insufficient reward, lack of community, absence fo fairness, conflict in values, work overload. Arguably Hannibal: - is in control (he's leading), - he's

Great article. There is this excellent talk by Maslach, "Understanding Burnout" which dispels most misunderstandings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kLPyV8lBbs However, as with most conditions it's unlikely

Wrong default, perhaps for you, but I for one don't care about memory safety at all.

> many of the corporate big guns he uses to quantify HEVC success seem to be more and more vocal about their dissatisfaction with HEVC and plans to ditch it for AV1 as soon as possible Do you have any source on this?

Leonardo Chiariglione also said "AOM will certainly give much needed stability to the video codec market but this will come at the cost of reduced if not entirely halted technical progress. " which is a very real concern. (a bit t

That's for 4kp60, 1080p30 HEVC encoding was at IBC 2013. And there were more encoder projects. MPEG codecs create a lot of interest.

Well, real-time 4kp60 HEVC encoding is a reality since 2014 https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20140904005279/en Since that time HEVC encoding has only become faster and less expensive. This real-time AV1

As people imitate the rich it's critical for the rich to adopt a lifestyle that isn't resource-intensive (like buying status symbols mindlessly). Frugality can become "cool" if the right people do it, if you are affluent

How do we know the big result is "Python!" rather than "work alone!" or "women code better!" ? Because that was 3 features of that one sample. It's hard to make any conclusions from that article.
