I feel like they did make investments in MacBooks, just not the kind I want. I care less about a thinner laptop. Keep the same thickness with a nicer screen and overall build quality. Apples focused abit too much on aesthetic over function, but with the recent 16” MacBook, they’re making course corrections.
Personally I can’t figure out my development workflow on Windows. I tried the Linux subsystem stuff and IO was just too damn slow. 15 minutes to install a few package dependencies. For a while, I ended up running Ubuntu on another machine that I would SSH into for all my side projects just so I have my trusty zshell and all the nice package managers and other build tools.
- thelazydogsback 6y ago> Personally I can’t figure out my development workflow on Windows Can you elaborate? How is your dev workflow os-dependent?
- FpUser 6y agoDepends on what kind of things you're making. For example some of the products I have target Windows desktop, can't' build/test those on Linux etc.
- tracer4201 6y agoIt’s not OS dependent. It’s just that doing it on Mac let’s me focus on the problem I want to solve vs non value add stuff like just getting things configured. I’m relatively fast using zshell, vim, iTerm, tab space to quickly search and open a file or program, adding things to my .zsh rc file, quickly installing packages, etc. In Windows, everything is slower, and I generally feel disoriented. Something as simple as running docker wouldn’t work on windows. Apparently I need Windows 10 Pro edition... and I had the license too but upgrading would fail and rollback. It’s things like this that add up.
