Get a cheap used android phone and use the back camera as a webcam. Many times better than any webcam that doesn't cost a fortune.

My general rule is that if its been working reliably and contributing to revenue generation its not bad code. We have code over 10 years old that looks bad by today's standards but since those are parts of the system that almost never

I can't vouch for latitude either. Not sure if they improved but my 4 year old model overheats and instead of throttling just turns off. Very frustrating when you are trying to get serious work done. Build is good though and feels toug

In the past you run your whole application as one piece on your machine, you could easily set a simple breakpoint and be done with it, now you have many interdependent components (microservices, 3rd party APIs), stuff running in the browser

The IT department should know better and offer the right hardware and software for each job. Unfortunately IT departments prefer conformity for easiest management instead of high performing and happy engineers.

upgraded a large badly written php 5.6 codebase to 7.1 then 7.4 and then 8.0. first jump took about 3 days of work to iron out issues then going to 7.4 and 8.0 was even quicker. using the php compatibility checker helped a lot.
