Aside from websites, we will talk about that in a minute, how is performance? I am running Windows 11 on new hardware and it is running great. I built personal box with 64gb of the fastest DDR5 and a AMD 9900xtx. The most expensive component (and least bang for the buck)... the video card. This is my first time to have an NVMe disk and its absolutely amazing.
I am running Debian 12 on mini computer with much less hardware and its doing amazing there too. I can run anything on the box except AAA games and 4k video movies.
Now, for the web talk. I was a JavaScript developer for 15 years, and yes its garbage. Most of the people doing that work have absolutely no idea what they are doing and there is no incentive to do so. The only practical goal there is to put text on screen and most of the developers doing that work struggle to do even that. Its why I won't do that work any more, because its a complete race to the bottom. If I see a job post that mentions React, Vue, or Angular I stop reading it and move on.

- austin-cheney 2y agoI stand corrected: 9900x. 9900xtx is a video card.
- avo1d 2y agoWhere did you move from JS? I am trying my best to learn low level stuff to NOT have these situations. But frameworks are bloated already and any optimisation feels useless
