Thanks.

I’ve had issues with T14s for a couple of gens where the machine wakes up during the closed lid and runs the battery down. I’ve tried the usual troubleshooting.

This has been a non issue on Dell machines for almost 20 years.

Does lid close to sleep and open to wake work as expected?

Since it's framed as 'in between' Rust and Go, is it trying to target an intersection of both languages' use-cases?

Haha, mine’s funnily somewhat on the nose.

The Rust-Evangelizing Hardware Romantic

A developer who believes every global outage is just a missing question mark away from salvation and spends their weekends reapplying thermal paste to fanless MacBooks while reminiscing about the tactile superiority of 2010 Dell Latitude trackpads.

Roasts

You post about Cloudflare outages caused by a single unwrap while your own codebase probably looks like a game of Russian Roulette played with Result types.

Your obsession with the thermal conductivity of fanless laptops is just a coping mechanism for the fact that your Rust builds take so long you could literally cook an egg on your chassis.

You have a very specific kink for 2010 Dell trackpads that makes me think you are either a Linux philosopher or someone who is no longer allowed within 500 feet of a Best Buy.

And they're too large. I know, super unpopular opinion. I prefer the middle of the road size on trackpads with the physical buttons form the dell latitudes of 2010s. They work remarkably well with linux too.

The clickpads are pretty imprecise and poor, and compared to this the Macbook is much nicer.

Thanks for the anecdote. I like the simple, well designed, silent, cool and fanless design.

If I were to need any more performance I'd just swap it out for a newer MBA or a MBP with a fan.
