0) when no microservices, return over cost.
1) if you get nothing from having 10 microservices, same return over 10x cost.
2) if you get something (say 20x) from having 10 microservices, sometimes you can reduce (say 5x) cost by using circuit breaker, so 20x return over 5x cost.
as a software developer, what makes more sense to me is, multi-core benchmark / number of threads.
for example, although Core i7-1280P (20 threads) and Ryzen 7 6800U (16 threads) have close multi-core benchmarks, your application will more likely perform better on latter.
i'm assuming your application is developed in non-blocking / asynchronous way.
otherwise, no benchmark makes any sense to your application's performance.

almost same here.
29 years ago, i wrote detailed design, C and COBOL code in vi (not vim) from a VT100 terminal.
Thirty years ago I _lived_ in EMacs. Everything I did, I did in EMacs. I read and wrote email, I posted on UseNet, I perused directories, I edited, compiled, and debugged. I just left EMacs running all the time. It was the only thing on my screen.
Then came the IDEs. I was smitten by IntelliJ. (I still am). So I left EMacs for the more sophisticated GUI of IDEs.
Now I wonder about that choice. My toe is back in the Emacs waters and I can see some advantages. I can also see some costs.
I tread carefully.

those who jump ship frequently don't care the other 20%, which is not only hard to master, but also not portable when jumping to next tech stack's 80%.
hello world all the way.
i'm not sure if that's the case for hiring, or for planning a system.
however it's true that more than enough effort is spent on choosing language / platform.
in java world, there're few things after _last_ things, like gradle vs maven, kotlin vs groovy for gradle script, etc.
old devices start degrade in performance when getting new system / firmware that was developed with only newer devices (which may be more than 2x powerful) in mind.
i have this device, and google did a good job not making it unusable over the years. thank you.

Google has quietly ended support for the original Chromecast. 10 years wasn't a bad run, and you may be able to continue using it. Just don't expect software or security updates, and "users may notice a degradation in performance." buff.ly/3OODCtw

Moore's Law is not as relevant any more, considering the size of recent chips and the power required to drive those chips.
What we expected from Moore's Law is actually, computational progress will become significantly faster, smaller, and more efficient over time.
well, that's a lot i reckon.
however what's the RDI (reference daily intake) for battery?

i've no idea how @ALDIAustralia made this possible.
i reckon it must be very hard.
