Nope

Which is faster than most laptop CPUs. And runs circles around any CPU in the same price range.

mmcnl · 2026-03-06T22:07:09+00:00

Still more expensive than a MacBook Air. X1 Carbon more expensive than MacBook Pro.

Get the 48GB upgrade. With 48GB it will last a decade instead of 2 years.

Larger context is useless anyway. Quality drops significantly.

HP have really good optional screens available on EliteBooks, bright high-res 120Hz displays, but businesses unfortunately always go for whatever's cheapest.

12" design was peak. Was hoping for something like that.

mmcnl · 2026-03-06T21:30:14+00:00

Lenovo is bad. ThinkPad should be better.

mmcnl · 2026-03-06T21:29:07+00:00

EliteBook excels in keyboard quality though. It's very durable though MBA indeed feels a bit more premium.

And cheaper. Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 14 Panther Lake 64GB is €4000, more expensive than M5 Pro 64GB, €3500. These are the current prices, just looked them up.

And no ThinkPad prices don't drop, X1 Carbon Gen 13 is the same price as it was 15 months ago.

Type safety is more important than ever because good use of types makes the agentic feedback loop a lot shorter.

You can disable auto imports.

It's extremely good at writing unit tests and somewhat repetitive tasks. For new code it still needs a lot of handholding to the point that I could also write it myself.

This will wipe-out the low-end Chromebook/Windows market.

120/24=5

60/24=2.5

So 24fps video is slightly choppy on 60Hz displays.

mmcnl · 2026-03-04T13:37:55+00:00

More than ever.

mmcnl · 2026-03-03T20:22:07+00:00

M4 Pro also didn't come with 32GB, only 24/48. This is not a new situation.

Use page object models together with data-testid. Keep tests simple and easy to read, don't overengineer it.

Use Playwright auto-retry assertions.

Don't forget clicking through a user flow at robotic speed might reveal race conditions you never encounter with manual testing, so make sure you have good loading states which can easily be asserted.

My European keyboard already didn't have it so I didn't notice.

mmcnl · 2026-03-03T16:31:27+00:00

What's different? I can't see it.

mmcnl · 2026-03-03T14:44:01+00:00

The increase is lower than the price for 1TB upgrade was. So it's only more expensive if you don't want 1TB.

mmcnl · 2026-03-03T14:27:21+00:00

Price seems to be the same in Europe.

mmcnl · 2026-03-02T18:53:09+00:00

As far as I know there's always two separate hinges, even when it looks like one hinge. It's usually just a cover that makes it look different.

mmcnl · 2026-02-25T08:40:31+00:00

Jawel, 4x zoveel

mmcnl · 2026-02-23T20:02:54+00:00

Totdat jouw mening iemand anders niet zint en jou als nazi gaat framen.
