I guess the days of engineers getting to be so casual about memory footprint and CPU cycles is over.

Nope.

1: most of them dont use their own products

2: someone else pays for their laptops

  • 1: true. 2: that someone else has to get approval for the cost

    • Fully loaded costs for an engineer where I live are anout 15-25 a month, plus a maybe 2-3k in token consumption. Whether the laptop costs 9k or 6k makes no difference and apple knows this.
