Literally the ultimate performative coding experience

Nothing comes even close
>>
>>108458865
Really a Top-notch product :0
>>
>>108458865
Let me guess !
You never wright single line of code!

Let me inform you !!!
Literally no one use apple for coding!!!

Incompatibility !

:D

>>108459316
if you need a numpad for a work laptop you're either a data entry loser, in which case how have you not been replaced by a scanner + AI yet? or you're retarded
>>

As opposed to authentic coding?

How do you test your projects for x86 (89% of desktops) ?
>>
>>108458865
well, yes
it's 2026
if you're coding, you're performing
let AI do that shit
>>
>>108460323
yes performative coding just means making money with coding not being an open source commie tranny

No is asking you to fuck them you illiterate mongoloid.

Yes!
>>
>>108461003
also of note that contrary to every other platform where emulation is unbearably slow, x86 emulation on Apple Silicon is 20-30% slower on average
so it is in fact the best hardware possible for multi-arch/platform project development, and by a long shot
assuming you even need to care about it at all, considering most sane development platforms have been cross-platform/arch for years now

There's this thing called a dock

no

One clearly can understand how bad it is with simple brain capacity of designers in apple when they put you Notch on Laptop display!

Beyond RETARDED!!!
>>
>>108461054
Just use a desktop at that point.
>>
>>108461131
wrong. laptop+dock is superior to a desktop for work for a number of reasons that you would already know about if you've ever had a job.
1) work travel: you can actually bring your laptop. good luck doing that with a desktop, retard
2) power outages: laptops have a built-in UPS in the form of a FUCKING BATTERY
>>
>>108458865
>performative
yep sounds about right, fag
>>
>>108460319
or have an extra hand jutting out of your side
>>
pencil + paper is the best way to design software and work out most of the details
when you're ready to write down the code, you want a fast desktop with a huge monitor (or several smaller monitors) so you can have many files open at once as you write so that you can get it down as efficiently as possible while having references open to prevent mistakes
>>
>>108458865
Is it good for no coders?

>macbook
even my dell from 2022 can run linux. this can't. the only development you're doing on macos is basedboy javascript webdev.

Indeed, no real work done.
>>
>>108458865
Someone please redpill me. I have a shitcan laptop with linux installed. I can rent a VPS hourly for like $1 - $3 a day depending on my needs and just ssh in and do any development work. If I dont want to do any work I just don't rent the vps. If I want to work for an hour or two ill spin up the vps, clone my shit, work for 2 hours for like $0.30, and nuke it all once im done. Why would I ever buy a $3000+ giga computer when I can just rent my shit and go about my life for pennies on the dollar?

i'll bite. as a european who knows nothing about apple, why are applefags talking about coding all the time. it's something i can comfortably do on my 500 euro lenovo lapto.
>>
>>108463818
They have to pretend they need Apple products for a specific reason, which may sound convincing for normalfags.
>>
>>108463777
You don't even need a computer. Write down your ideas on paper with a pencil and then use your phone to show the paper to AI and tell it to make it into an app / website / product / whatever.

>>108463818
I'll bite your bait question, there are countless reasons on why apple is better than spyware windows
1. apple doesn't steak your bandwith
2. apple doesn't kill your ssd
3. when doing some serious developing like a ci cd pipeline you get a similar to vps server experience in apple unlike windows where you have to install wsl2 which is a huge disgusting mess
i could keep going but you gotta tryst me on this the reasons could easily pile up to 10 000
>but i run linux in my lenovo
good then the reason why apple is superior is optimization of the hardware and useful tools that just work
>>
>>108463939
>i could keep going
says nothing. i could keep going.

am starting to really like the new macbooks after being convinced that windows is just steaming pile of shit. however i don't do any "tech" work or programming or anything like that, and i do game fairly alot(and pirating), so is it really any use to get a macbook for someone like me or is it just better to stick with windows hoping it will be fixed sometime down the line(it won't)?

I wouldnt use a macOS device if you paid me and gave me the best most expensive model. Say what you want about windows, i dont have games i cant run and best part, im on an iphone 17 pro max right now.
>>
>>108461017
idk man, i tried to emulate win10 x86 and was painfully slow
>>
>>108461054
The problem is that M5 Max throttles in a 14" MacBook Pro, and I don't want to get the 16", so I'm forced to get a desktop Mac Studio anyway
>>
>>108464337
assuming you aren't conflating emulation slowdown with something unrelated such as broken GPU acceleration when virtualizing windows, I would say that is quite abnormal, but then again I haven't ran an actual windows vm on a mac for years at this point
that notwithstanding, if you actually do need cross-platform UI testing, there is no good solution except having real test hardware somewhere
>>
>>108463939

I'm on windows and I don't see what you meat

I do, and everybody in the company I work at does too.

>>
>>108465206
So you make iphone "apps"?
In my work WIndows is pretty much needed, as it use a shitload of proprietary tools.
Luckly on real programming, everything can just use VSCode.
>>
>>108458865
It's all the same shit. you can just run GCC and VSCode, and it will be better than the native garbage like visual studio or xcode or..
The only difference is the file manager, where mac sucks pretty badly.

I was able to get this "used" for $450 and it was just open box. Absolute steal it was.
However I still gave Macbooks a good think.
