That's an excellent reason _not to do work_ until your work provides you with a better laptop.
Or at the very least only run these tests from CI, which will slow you down. But it's not your fault or your responsibility.
It is wildly unnaceptable for your work to require you to use a personal device because of this. Unless this is what you agreed on when signing the contract, I guess - but I gather this is not the case since your work provided you with a work laptop in the first place.
- mrkeen 2y agoOh that's how it's been the past 18 months, and it hasn't been a complete showstopper. We're very microservicy and it's only the integration tests which require spinning up all the containers that makes me run out of ram. I've since (as of a week ago) moved team to a monolith stack, so I thought I'd be free of that nonsense, but it's worse. Just having Rider open on the codebase uses like 40GB lol. The new laptop's coming in 3 weeks? I'm not going to not work for that long.
- Kuraj 2y agoOh, glad you got this sorted out then!
