The performance of hardware today is even more mind-boggling compared to what most people (SRE managers, devs, CTOs) are willing to pay for when it comes to cloud compute.

even more so when considered in the context of dev 'remote workstations'. I benchmarked perf on AWS instances that was at least 5x slower than an average m1 macbook, and cost hundreds of dollars a dev per month (easily), and the macbook was a sunk cost!
