Re: energy specifically - I think "psychological state" is the main thing. Once there's a will, there's a way. Make it not draining on your psyche to explore new stuff and you're good to go. This really is as simple

The ones in cars need to be heated up quite a bit in order to work, and you still need reference air. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure that CO2 isn't a problem but rather an indication of a lack of oxygen in the first place, so it techn

Same with ds4-flash. Low power is 13t/s vs 26t/s, power usage is ~30w vs ~100-120w. I still use high power because my m5 max is basically a server with built-in UPS and screen (and an off-work media machine, blender cycles toy, et

The apple silicon chips basically beat everything in bandwidth. Highest amount of memory controllers (i.e. channels) for a given capacity. That's the main party trick.

At low effort (i.e. active recovery can-do-this-all-day-every-day) levels, it's quite efficient. That assumes that you're fine with whatever let's say ~120w continuous can get you, which is what the m5 max 16'' mbp

Given that you can run quantized flash on 128g ram, and there's a heavy focus around it (DS4)... I'd say that it's pretty feasible for a decent amount of devs. Never thought I'd buy an MBP but here we are. n.b. I can

This. They recently made "efficient" even more verbose, my custom instructions can't suppress it properly anymore. These "little" changes are incredibly annoying.
