For the record, I use Mac and I like it that way.
ive always been one of the huge windows enthusiasts and i fsckin hate win11
I modify every system I have to fit my liking. Windows is no exception
Grow some skills and stop being stuck on one platform. You don't want to be a one trick pony, right?
Eh. Sublime and vagrant run on windows and the machines are better value than Macs.
I'll stick to a windows host with Linux rather than feed Apple ridiculous money for dongles that do shit that should be built in. Multiple display port out and a built in ethernet cable or death - I actually need a laptop that's portable.
I just checked and it looks like the latest MacBook Pro has a single hdmi port and three USB-C ports... so I've got my power cable, my mouse, my keyboard, and my ethernet cable dongle... already at negative one ports. Then I've got two monitors on display port to somehow cram into a single hdmi port - and apparently the processor only supports a single external monitor unless you get the MacBook Pro Pro or MacBook Pro Max... that's impressively shit.
All for 4,649 CAD - I can buy so many more ports on PC with a ridiculous amount of power for 4.5 thousand. I don't mind spending my employer's money, but I want to spend it on shit that's useful for me.
You do you, boo. I like my Mac and it suits my needs perfectly. The cost difference is a mere drop in the bucket for my org.
You do, you boo is very much not the sentiment of your meme - and if I'm asking my company for a 4k+ CAD laptop I want one with a sufficient number of ports. My complaints are primarily focused on the fact that Macs are simply poorly designed machines these days, in the PC market I can still get a laptop that hooks up to multiple monitors without needing to lug around multiple dongles.
I'm sure you already downvoted the post, you may move along now.
Notepad++ and putty are what makes you a true professional.
For what it's worth, WSL 2 with VSCode is actually great. Almost all the benefits of Linux (I still miss true tiling window management), with fewer weird driver issues.
That said, I generally just use whatever my company wants me to use, and I haven't worked somewhere that let us use native Linux boxes since 2014.
I have to strongly disagree with you. I've used WSL 2 with VSCode, and I experienced waaaaaaaay more weird broken shit than I ever have running Linux. And even if it weren't for that, it's still not at all worth it IMO because using WSL 2 means every interaction I have with my development environment has to go through a Linux-to-Windows translation layer. I will never use Windows again for anything beyond testing unless I'm forced to.
🤷 That wasn't my experience, and I used it as my primary dev environment for four years.
It doesn't go through a translation layer, though. WSL 2 has a whole separate kernel. You can even use GUI apps with Wayland.
I hope this is bait.
