The benefit of everybody hating the new macbooks is that people are going to be writing stuff on the old ones for a while, which will make them respect CPU resources more and performance of web apps will go up. There are a lot of sites where you can instantly tell the frontend developers all used top of the line macbooks and never even bothered to check CPU usage or throttle network performance to see how slow their app is when served in production to people without business tier connection speeds.

I think the current crop of developers cares more about how quick they can get a basic app coded up than how quick it runs. And they definitely don't care about battery, network, etc. because they're mostly using very fast networks and keep their machines plugged in.
- gaurgo 8y agoI find myself in this camp. I enjoy optimizing, but I need to see positive feedback.
