They're ubiquitous for the same reason as those Apple stickers: bundling, in this case with baby car seats.

The better format does not always win, and just like VHS, H.265 already has much deeper market penetration in hardware.

There is no chicken-and-egg problem because the OS already does color management to map your source color space (sRGB, mostly) to your target monitor's color space. If it didn't, you wouldn't be able to view sRGB content correctly on wide-gamut monitors, for example.

The real challenge is in developing display backlight and phosphor technology to reproduce colors outside of the standard gamuts.

VSTs draw their own graphics. They're basically separate applications that have an audio/MIDI pipe to the host.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. :)

ESP32, the successor to the ESP8266, has both WiFi and Bluetooth, but it's fairly expensive.

Bluetooth/WiFi doesn't require embedded Linux. The venerable ESP8266 can be easily programmed through the Arduino IDE.

Or I can have the candidate code with me for an hour during the interview, and save $100. They get to ask me questions about the problem directly, and I can see where they are struggling, and how they debug (trial and error? Google/SO?)

Sounds like Twitter a few years back. These companies are on the same track.

That is because: powerful = power hungry = requires a large battery != small.
