I'm always confused by the interface outrage from hard core devs around new laptops. As a dev, I spend the absolute minimum time possible developing by interfacing with my MacBook itself. 98% of the time I'm plugged into a mechanical keyboard, giant monitors, and a real sound system. My MacBook sits to the side and only gets touched when I'm on an airplane or a meeting.
- rglullis 10y agoI was thinking the same, and I realized the answer is simple: it is not "hard core devs". Who cares so much about 6+ hours of battery life, if most of the time you are just at your workplace - whether at the office or at home? People whose workplace is at neither of those, and instead they work in some damn coffee shop.
- SliderUp 10y agoThis is true; but to me, the problem is the diminutive RAM/CPU/drive profile. Just not enough horsepower. The touch panel would bug, but I rarely use my laptop mobile. But my 64G Windows gaming laptop kills my 2014 MBP for perf. That seems to be nothing that is going to change soon.
