  • I'm not even really a hobbyist photographer anymore, but when I was, the full lossless edit was a .psd and that was generally exported to (high quality) jpg for distribution. I have folders full of carefully curated raws. For the relatively few that were ever edited they have an accompanying psd. The jpgs are ephemeral and don't get saved long term.

  • Yeah, when I was a smoker (thankfully many years in the past now), I really only ever used bics. I went through phases with Zippos or butane lighters, but they were always maintenance heavy, unreliable and too expensive for something so comonly shared with others. On the flip side, no-name gas station lighters didn't last and were generally unreliable. Bics hit a huge sweet spot of being long lasting, reliable, _and_ cheap enough to be treated as disposable even though they weren't in practice.

  • I'm sure that's true, but the interesting thing to me is that it's the gradient exists within an industry too, at least for me in government R&D, we're not at all stuffy out here in the West.

  • The article also makes it sound like that. Are you saying they didn't? I don't see any reference in the article to any other organization that could have done the research.

    Edit: Unless "Salesforce AI Research" is not a part of Salesforce, I think Salesforce did do the research.

  • Very much my impression too. I work for an org with sites scattered across the country. My colleagues in Virginia still regularly wear suits, while I in California haven't even owned a suit in many years. For no particular reason I can discern, the gradient seems to be pretty linear. Our Texas people are right in the middle formality wise.
