Cables and stuff would be cool I guess! :) #loveCables

Good idea. What should I ask for?
-
You’re incredible for doing what you have done so far. You should be proud of that. Hang in there and remember to look after yourself too!
-
But anyway the point is my boss was a dick when he didn’t listen to me. And now he’s more of a dick because he said I didn’t advise him

I wasn’t commenting on any other company, especially not google. But the iPod was revolutionary the way it brought together the tech that existed in different places and made a completely accessible product.
The same with the iPhone.
Facial recognition is ok but it’s not revolutionary and the prices are far too high.
You get the same spec laptop (dell xps) with uhd screen, more ram and a bigger ssd for about £600 less.
I had two Mac book pros before. This last one lasted me 7 years. But I didn’t want the new one because of the spec and the price.
I also have had three iPhones. I won’t be upgrading to the latest for the same reason, you can get the Samsung which is the same spec for the most part but some things are better (eg camera) and it’s significantly cheaper.
Apple has lost its appeal.
Although having said all that I would be keen for an iwatch! -
@calmyourtities and that Apple haven’t revolutionised anything since Jobs past
-
And it looks incredible

I mostly work with my laptop plugged in. Not sure how the battery life will be but I very rarely take it off the stand. I do when I travel but normally I plug it in somewhere else.
I also have a separate 4K monitor thus giving me 8k. Which is pretty spectacular.
I can basically have 4 screens on each screen which means I never have to switch tabs! -
Was that you?

Welcome to London

Oh and then one of our team was attacked by a moped gang and this millennial decided that it would be fine to put “attacked by a smooth criminal” on the teams group chat. Wtf
-
Go travel somewhere the surface is cheaper?
-
@badcopnodonuts oh hey Dave!

Update:
2 weeks in an he mentions that he's only 50% productive because of this new laptop. -
I guess I'm no longer a dev...

@redstonetehnik I guess #noHints is technically not #noSolutions but it's what I meant! ;)

@dontbeevil no. We used it as a company and it was incredibly slow and painful to run and google drive was just seamless so we moved to that. Also cheaper.
Everyone in the company agreed.
But we are a "nimble startup". -
@dontbeevil the Microsoft office online in the browser is clunky and slow.
Google sheets rocks with multiple users simultaneously editing. It's great for teams and just getting something done rather than making a doc that take five minutes to load that multiple people can't access. -
@sheeponmeth unless they are a n00b and have no idea what crontab is! But yes I like it!

@Fixxel I was looking at that feed then thought of posting. Then couldn't be bothered to both check the week or take it off.
