Google are so clumsy accidentally leaving in these hard to find bugs throughout their products eh?

I guess the only solution is for us all to switch to Chrome, everything works fine that way.

psst- you forgot your /sarcasm tag!

It all seems too good to be true, memory and ssd upgrades aside, the M1 devices seem to be fantastic value for money. Also waiting for a 16" M1, decided to order a mini in the meantime.

It definitely is. I'm daily driving a Macbook Air, something which I never thought I'd say. Even beyond the CPU crunching performance, I'm not sure what part of it is causing this, but it's just so much smoother for a variety of misc things. I suspect either better coupling with the integrated GPU or the unified memory.

But many little things, like the smoothness of the OS, or the way that the screen wakes from sleep instantly are just superior to my much more expensive, and power hungry desktop. Of course, my desktop can still cream it in a GPU workload but for programming, it's amazing.

This is pretty funny, can't wait to replace my hot to the touch macbook pro with an m1 model when the larger models come out.

12% of the population? No, surely what's meant is an increase of 12% to the usual number of deaths per year.

I agree with your message in general, however believe that the new M1 Mac mini has the best (and sufficient) cooling among the new line up.

What! A default, non-personalised vim setup?!

I recently moved back to Arch Linux after spending the last few years using a hackintosh full time. There shouldn't be any reason to need to keep installing an OS; if you're competent, you should be able to correct any issues.

For many peoples workflows including my own, Windows would pose a far greater headache to get to a productive state. macOS works great, up to the point where you want to enjoy freedom to use your computer as you see fit, certainly less hassle for development (in general) than Windows though imo :)

As far as I can see, there is literally no way to disable network caching via a toggle in the dev tools. This is a huge problem for me.

Next to the trashcan on the top right of the network tab, there's a button, which when hovered, "ignores the resource cache when loading resources." I think this what you're referencing.

I find that web archive pages always appear broken —- perhaps a lot of js or css is not properly archived?
