it's a bit more interesting that the iPro has a secure enclave/tpm kinda thing in it which also handles hardware-based data encryption on the drive apparently

its dumb and I’m dumb, I know but even just to simplify my desk at home, a really powerful Mac with a video card slot (like the good old days) would mean I just have to dual boot, instead of having to buy a PC as well for all the dumb old computer games I like to play. It’s just about using the right tool for the job.

pleasant apple surprise: wife has a 16gb SE, will probably upgrade her to a bigger-storage SE2 in march if such a thing will exist in the mean time i just tried to install iOS 11.2.1 and her phone specifically asked me to temporarily deltet some apps and then automatically reinstall them after the upgrade, due to insufficient spaec do like the automated offer to automatedly get around small storage space in prevoius iphones, thumbsup

imacs make no sense to me. there is no reason to compromise on hardware capabilities, gently caress up the repairability, and reduce the cooling capability/introduce throttling/make it noisier because the fans have to go full blast more often, just so you can have it all in a tight little package. the change from magnetically attaching the screen to gluing it the gently caress on is also such a gently caress you to anyone who needs to work on them.

syscall girl posted:give it a couple years and get back to us WebAssembly brings no untold end joys of gobbling more memory. Developers preallocate fixed storage for their cross compiled .Net apps. Just wait and someone will port Node.js to WebAssembly so you can have a literal Node.js server running in your browser to reduce the burden of developing front-end webcodes and streamline that latency of first render.

it is very hard to tell whether one is getting old or whether software actually uses ridiculously much memory these days need some infographics which explains what fraction is used by what really, graphical assets are sort of easy to imagine having ballooned, but it is hard to imagine that that is the whole explanation

Thick provisioning seems to be becoming more common and .Net follows the JRE model of arbitrary initial allocations that the dev probably didn't tune well then rely on GC to punch it down under memory pressure. Run those same things on a system with less available physical ram and they'll probably be considerably smaller because GC actually initializes for a change instead of sitting idle because there is no reason to spend the CPU cycles
