I think the name 'Race Conscious' is not a great description where it actually means race and oppression.
Wait hear me out. I haven't tried jackets or outwear they sell, but they always stock up of decent quality underwear, t-shirts and jeans. Their Levi's last me about 4 years.
I remember working for a company about a decade ago where we spent so much time engineering duplicate everything hardware or hot spares everywhere.
Guess what, when switch failed it didn't properly failed over. When router it started sending spurious packets everywhere and had to be taken down manually.
All the effort that went into duplicating hardware and making hot spares could have been save by just... having cold spares, and in the end the amount of downtime would have been the same, or less -- because when one thing fails it's really easy obvious where things stopped working.
Yes, the roof can hold 5 teslas stack one on top of the other, but this doesn't tell you much.
More practical knowledge would be at what speed the car will fall on the roof before the roof collapses? 50km/h 70km/h 100km/h?
A more recent sensor advancement is dual native ISO in GH5s, which make the system's long downside -- low light performance, a much better proposition. I'm hoping this technology will find its way to cheaper offerings.
There are a few fast new lenses that have come out. I particularly like 25mm f/1.7 that's under $200, there are also a few ones on the higher end.
Another selling point for micro 4/3 that they can use virtually any vintage lens with a simple adapter.
Panasonic 25mm f/1.7 (50mm f/3.5 equivalent full frame) is under $200 and is an excellent portrait lens.
With initial release of GH5 autofocus was pretty bad, but with the last firmware upgrade apparently it's quite good now.
I however cant yet justify upgrade from GH4, which doesn't have sensor stabilization.
For commercial vehicle that spend most of their life on the road, energy savings from running a more efficient vehicle recoup the energy used in making that vehicle pretty quickly.
Making any kind of public statement doesn't matter if an organization takes money from a monster.
What kind of science is produced by this money? In the past few weeks we've seen the consequence of that -- many women were pushed out of the field, because the behavior that was enabled by accepting the money.
You can't have your cake and eat it too.
Hasan Minhaj did a pretty informative episode on the lawsuit against Harvard affirmative action -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zm5QVcTI2I8
