It's still probably a good product for big Audio/Video production houses to fill them up with PCIe cards for Video/Audio, super fast ethernet or SAN cards.
with blood work, I had some symptoms as increased fatigue, libido gone and similar which can also come from extended calorie restriction together with intense excercise anyway, so its not necessarly keto related.
I had similar improvements without fasting and without keto. I do 16:8 on some days but it's mostly to help me manage my weight. I strongly believe most of the fasting benefits come from the fact that it makes managing weight easier.
Calorie restriction and tracking my macros has helped me tremendously not only loosing weight but also understanding nutrition and what works for me and what doesn't. I am a 40 year old Software Engineer and fitter and stronger than I have ever been.
I do quite a bit of high intensity cardio (cycling) + weight training and my recovery and peak performance suffered a lot when I tried keto for a few weeks, it also tanked my hormone levels. I still focus my carb intake on times around training but generally don't restrict.
I had the same issues with a 2019 16" MBP. Annoying fans as soon as I connected an external display, getting very hot, okay performance.
Switched to a M1 Pro 14" and couldn't be happier, as far as work laptops go it's the best I ever used since switching to macs in 2009.
the more you do it, the more your body will adapt and then after smaller workouts, say a 30min run in the morning, you will start feeling energized instead of tired, as your time to tire yourself out increases over time.
I have to say that I kinda like the feeling of achievement afterwards and also like feeling sore and tired for some reason. That's also the only time when I allow myself unhealthy food nowadays and don't even feel bad about it. I lost 10kg and am fitter at 40 then ever before.
> It's good to know that I'm not the only one, it's a bit sad to know that there doesn't seem to be anything I can do about it.
Not sure you should see it so negatively/defeatist. Maybe you just have not found the right thing yet that gives you joy. I discovered my love for road cycling only in my mid thirties and now derive immense pleasure from long rides totally exerting myself and burning 2000+ calories in many of those rides. Lost 10kg of weight and am fitter at 40 then I ever was before.
Yeah the classic argument, but at some point every internet connection becomes a shared medium. It really depends on how the network is setup and where the fibre backhauls start. If the building has older wiring which can only support 1Gbps and you have a bunch of high bandwidth users, then yes it can affect your bandwidth more than using other technologies.
Gigabit internet is quite widely available through different cable providers in Germany nowadays. Also the country side seems to be moving up, the very rural place where I grew up (and where my mom still lives) had a max of 2Mbps DSL for the last 20(!) years and now the whole area is being upgraded to fibre and will enjoy 10/1Gbps by the end of the year!
hm I think the industry was stale for quite some time but lately it has picked up a lot. What exactly are you looking for?
Today you have high refresh rates,4k or 5k screens, (curved) Ultrawide, Variable Refresh rates, low latencies.
Comparing them with TVs is not entirely fair, as those usually are not great for displaying text unless you get a specific panel with good chroma subsampling and in terms of latency TVs are usually also pretty far behind Monitors. The really good TVs are equally as expensive.
i don't think Apple is particularly interested in the low end Chromebook market. It has also been largely replaced by tablets and phablets and is pretty niche nowadays.
Well, chrome could certainly use more threads for all your tabs which might make it even more of a resource hog but probably also run faster.
Software Engineering will evolve too, like we have seen in game development over the last decade. While 10 years ago most game engines were hardly using let alone optimized for multicore systems, nowadays the modern engines very much benefit from more cores and I guess the modern OSes also benefit from having more threads to put processes on.
it's not a consumer product, video editors can utilize multiple streams of video in many usecases. The iMac and the Macbook Air are the consumer products with enough performance for 99% of users.
MKBHD recently did a pretty good video exactly on this type of question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2KbwC-s7pY
