Why do cameras and people often blur the background and focus on the main object? Why not just leave the whole image sharp without any distortion?

To put more focus on the actual subject without the background distracting from it and because bokeh looks good

because that's not how optics work, light always needs to be focussed.
there's a thing called hyperfocal distance though, which describes the circumstances that situation appears

About to go buy a new Macbook Pro 13 inch model. I can get the 256gb non-touchbar for $1300 or the 256gb touchbar for $1375. A lot of people seem to hate the touch bar but it has a better CPU and from what I've read it has better read/write speeds. Is the touchbar one worth $75 or is it the touchbar too useless to warrant it?

I like my TB model. I have the 15" though.

For only a 75 dollar difference get the touchbar model. You get a faster cpu, the iris 650 instead of 640, touch id, and two extra usbc ports.

The TB is pretty comfy, I can only recommend it

what if isntead of making computers faster ecause mmores law ended they instead can put the computer in a smaller bubble universe where time goes twice as fast so that it solves the problem instantly
or they could put the computer in a spaceship, and accelerate the solar system at the 90% speed of light away and then come back, and then 1 billion years would have passed for the computer and it solved every problem for us already

At least on Windows it is easy to choose because there's only one GUI framework to pick. So what do I do?
