That makes sense to me... I do some side work which involves media assets and that’s where my current machine is slow. I only “slice and dice” the completed assets in order to add them to the app so it’s not really a problem.
But if I were working with that stuff all day, I’d want as much power as I could get.
But as a programmer, my biggest and by far most frequent bottleneck is when my computer is idle and I’m sitting motionless, thinking about what the best thing I ought to type next is.
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoI'm researching how to get more of that thinking augmented by the computer, since with the programming tools that we have today, much of what we do still happens in our heads. If our programming experience were much richer, we'd probably start clamoring for more advanced hardware to go with it.
