@GossiTheDog Reminds me of a call I had today with a real, significant company somewhere in Africa, they are knee-deep in the Microsoft ecosystem, except the latency and bandwidth constraints were making any page load on office365 unbearable, the screenshare was painful to watch.
Maybe they should fix that first instead of spending all their capex on GPUs.
@mathieui @GossiTheDog I'm a firm believer that developers should be forced to use shitty machines on shitty internet connections so they can actually feel the pain they inflict on others.
I've been preaching this for years. Developers should be forced to work and test their software on Celeron, 256MiB RAM, 256MiB swap, 5400 RPM spinning rust 120GB HDDs.
I'm okay with compilation to happen on a beefy iron.
But the actual user experience should be the absolute minimum.
@datenwolf @mathieui @GossiTheDog I've been slowly cutting down my compute for similar reasons. It makes IDEs and fancy code completion tools almost impossible
