We had experienced serious reductions in carbon utilization in the 2008 recession and COVID restrictions and there wasn't any kind of pull back signal from the temperature record that I can make out. Real global "experiments&quot

It's not apples vs apples. Literally and figuratively. The I/O or board features on PC boards will eat power. So you will end up with a 15-30 W idle vs probably 5-8 for the Mac. I doubt the PCIe on the pro does much to the pow

Have a purpose. Have an intended audience to fulfill that purpose. Cater to your audience. If you wander about aimlessly, well, you will be aimless.

Most of those systems sit at idle, when they are on at all. Idle power is not the same as TDP. The idle difference is not so great that it's a big deal.

The reality is that the phone is, and will be, the far more dangerous a vector for porn because of how ubiquitous and convenient it is. The wow factor of this device won't move the needle much here, particularly at this price. Yes, so

Everyone fancies their success, which means more visitors. They want to be able to handle the odd traffic surge. Understandable desires. But understanding of scaling seems stuck in 2012 when these systems were required for even moderate s

Well, vote with your time and money. PWAs would be cheaper to develop overall than building 2-3 separate code bases. Which would mean more software available generally, particularly from bootstrapped companies. I don't think anyone is
