They are from the platforms I was coming from. It was a shit show. All my VMs are in AWS. I don't do any dev directly on this computer. I really hate doing that

They are from the platforms I was coming from. It was a shit show. All my VMs are in AWS. I don't do any dev directly on this computer. I really hate doing that. All it takes is one slip up with some tooling and your entire control surface is covered with body parts and shit. It's like operating a lathe with dreadlocks and floaty sleeves on. I'm not living that life any longer. Nor am I lugging around 500gb of VMs everywhere. This is a very nice terminal node and I like that. Which constant Apple news? You'll find if you look back through my post history I was very critical of Big Sur and the M1 but after taking time to understand it, measure it and use it I'm less concerned. When I put all the vendors on the table, including Linux, the tradeoffs were still in my favour with Apple.
