I wish I needed a fast computer. It’s the CI/CD that’s killing me.
All this cloud stuff we use - can’t test anything locally anymore. Can’t use the debugger. I’m back to glorified fmt.Printf statements that hopefully have enough context that the 40 min build/deploy time was worth it. At least it’s differential ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ All I can say is “I compiles… I think?” The unit tests are mostly worthless and the setup for sending something to a lambda feels like JCL boiler plate masturbation from that z/OS course I took out of curiosity last year.
I only typing this out because I just restarted CI/CD to redeploy what I already pushed because even that’s janky. Huh, it’s an M3 they gave me.
- lawrjone 3y agoYeah everything you just said is exactly why we care so much about a great local environment. I've not seen remote tools approach the speed/ease/flexibility you can get from a fast local machine yet, and it makes a huge difference when developing.
