My point is that users don't care if they have enough RAM.

My point is that users don't care if they have enough RAM.
- mwcampbell 4y agoSome people can't afford to keep up with our upgrade treadmill. I'm trying to do my part to slow the treadmill down by voluntarily not upgrading my main PC, a 2016 laptop with a quad-core i7-6700HQ and 16 GB of RAM. I suspect that even that machine is too powerful. To really feel users' pain and develop my software in a way that minimizes it, I should probably be using a budget laptop with like 4 GB of RAM, an actual spinning HDD, and the typical Windows crapware still active, and do big compiles and other tasks that truly require more resources on a remote machine.
