I'll add something which is not mentioned: Unreal Engine, one of the most popular game engines, is source available, but not open source. Many games modify it but its then impossible to release those sources. I'm guessing that it's the same with many other engines...
The main issue is more about how many FOSS devs are available to implement what you just said unfortunately...
Since italy pays those countries to "guard their coasts", there have been many instances where peoples were forced to board these ships and "charity ships" were notified before hand in a sort of human-traffic type of business that makes profitable to enlarge the issue, there are multiple sides to these stories, It's not that simple unfortunately...not that I agree with what Italy is currently doing rn of course
Recently Teams is blocking Firefox even on Windows, but changing user agent was enough in my case...
The source you linked tells that more developed countries have less kids, which is almost unrelated to how "affordable" having a child is, which infact have the opposite trend.
In one of my jobs, they were automatically locking any push 2 hours before the shift ended.
Tv and movies don't look choppy because the shutter speed of the camera smooth out the movement with motion blur. Motion blur in games is instead just simulated and not as effective.
Also as someone else have said a game is interactive and input latency can be as high as 3 frames, which at 30fps would be 1/10s and can be perceived....
I'll give a different perspective on what you said: dx12 basically moved half of the complexity that would normally be managed by a driver, to the game / engine dev, which already have too much stuff to do: making the game. The idea is that "the game dev knows best how to optimize for its specific usage" but in reality the game dev have no time to deal with hardware complexity and this is the result.
Clonezilla. I usually prepare images in virtual machines and restore them on physical drives.
On desktop, I'm really wondering why people use it. I mean it's not pre-installed for windows, what makes people choose Chrome in 2023?
The point is just differentiating your behavior between what you call a "bad" or a "good" junior.
And from experience the difference is whether they want to learn (regardless of their skill!!) or not (i.e are they passionate or it's just a job?).
Passionate seniors get frustrated when they try to teach bad juniors, but there is no point on doing that, the problem was just that the senior was not involved in the hiring process...
