Photoshop is not the gold standard for pixel manipulation, but for general manipulation. Aseprite and Cosmigo's Promotion are much better for pushing pixels. I'd say Promotion is the gold standard.

Wood is better for weather as it is flexible to allow expanding and shrinking. When you have such a hard material, such as brick, in a climate that changes from extreme hot & cold the bricks will crack and break due to stress from expan

If you've been developing for 35+ years and you still have to look at the keyboard.... you teach yourself touch typing. Unless touch typing means something other than "not looking at the keyboard before you press the keys"?

POTS is pretty much dead almost everywhere in the USA, most are VOiP these days. They are not replacing the copper wire.
