Could probably avoid the crazy fan with a waterblock - I've seen a whole kit, v100 + PCIE adapter + block for £235. Yes, you'll have to pay for pump, radiators and radiator fans, but that should really quieten it down

Surely a 50% warning alarm on disk usage covers this without manual intervention?

FWIW the Macbook Air is slightly more repairable and modern ones are decent enough to do work on without the display limitations of prior non-pro apple silicon. As a travel machine, I shy away from the Pro because of how poor it is to repair.

Unfortunately a Macbook is a hard requirement for travel simply because of battery life, at my desk I use my Windows gaming rig for work.

very cool - if RDIMMs could be added, that would be swell

I don't programme much any more but the whole beauty of Ruby that it pretty much heavily relies on #respond_to? / duck typing and thus you don't rely on types or class checking at all.

Literally prior to the cloud being a thing, for medium sized web apps, this was the way.

There is ONLY one solution - get back to America tonight, sort out the logistics afterwards.

This is absolutely a mean AF law. This is pure Trump in his element with no depth of thought. However Big Tech does not care about your feelings, there are two realistic options.

To send you back where you came from (severance).

To send you somewhere where you have the ability to keep doing what your doing.

Some may fork out the fee for a year for exceptional staff, thats about it.

Anyway, forget the tech sector. The impact to the health care sector is even worse.

Even better than this actually is a one time relocation cost, you retain the domain knowledge of the employee and send someone elsewhere where they can keep working.

Speaking purely from the UK perspective, London is expensive, however, real estate should not be seen as a cost for a large company, it's an investment. Price increases on office real estate on a year-to-year basis just in London is 5-10% per square metre.

For the UK this is amazing news, it also allows for places like Birmingham and Manchester to get a significant boost.

$0 is smaller than $100,000
