It takes 25m05s to compile webkit on a macbook air, but 19m32s on a Mac Mini. That's not-insignificant. And the Mini is several hundred cheaper than the Air too.
Mobility seems like an issue, but an external keyboard + tiny monitor seems to solve that. Though using a backpack + monitor + keyboard + mac mini + uninterruptible power supply is ... well ... maybe not too practical. It's hard to decide.
Anyone have an opinion on Mac Mini vs Air? the raw benchmarks seem to favor the M1 mac mini: https://twitter.com/theshawwn/status/1331923535053299712
