Possibly the worst choice they could have ever made. I have no faith in Xbox’s technical ability anymore.

i always hear this argument. and then those that proclaim it get stuck for a sprint trying to fit a square peg in a round hole

and then i get a ticket a month later because the customer reported the feature isn't working. all while they proclaim how much they care about the customer.

i'm not just talking about one person. i feel as if there's an archetype of programmer that thinks like this.

Nothing about the CPU architecture itself requires that. They can run a standard UEFI/ACPI stack.

I get that. But it's a platform that is so similar to existing Linux on ARM offerings.

All the subsystems to run a laptop should already be there, no?

Just upstream your drivers! Then you don't need Qualcomm Linux.... you just have Linux.

What workloads are other people running?

I wouldn't say my career is out of the ordinary, however most software I've built/maintained need more than one host.

You are a life saver. I never knew about --firmware!

> This feels like adding braces to Python because you don't like indenting your code.

Now this I can get behind...

Okay, I'll bite. What if your workload genuinely doesn't fit on one machine? Like load balancing or clustering 20+ nodes for LLM inference?

100%. And a shared mental model. I love how I can scale up all my services the same way, across clouds.

It's great.

HP G1A Ultra?

I wanted to like him, but then after watching a few podcast appearances I realized he loves to play every side. He usually just reflects the hosts beliefs back to them.

It also doesn’t help that he’s trying to line up a pardon from Trump, as well.

Fair, but it’s electron. They can just add a new target and recompile the native libraries they’re using for Linux.

It’s really not that hard.

I get it. I wish there were more great laptop makers. I had a maxed out 16in M2 Max MacBook Pro, now I have an 15in M3 MBA. I also have a maxed out HP G1A Ultra running Fedora. They’re all excellent.

I'm still surprised at how many developers still turn their noses up at using Linux.

Like... You already use Docker and deploy to K8S... On Linux...

It kinda reminds me of general relativity and gravity bending space-time. I'm sure I sound nuts right now, but the model fits in my head.
