"Here at Dioxus Labs, we have an unofficial rule: only one rewrite per year."

If you have to rewrite your code once a year, maybe it helps to plan ahead before coding.

But, if you can rewrite your code once a year, you might not have too much code to worry about.

$4k / ($your-total-cost * 3). Assuming 3 years of ownership. Tools are not only a laptop but the idea, I believe, is valid.

I had an Amiga 500, I love the computer very much. The problem with these projects is that you end up with a keyboard at an angle that is not ergonomic at all.

Like, for example an OS, hardware even electricity! But if you give things for granted, why not docker or APISIX?

ExternalProject_Add -> vcpkg or Conan. I have more experience with vcpkg and the steps are:

1) declare your dependencies in a vcpkg.json file (similar to npm's package.json). Example:

{ ... "dependencies": [ "openssl" ] }

2) Add it to your CMakeLists.txt file. Example:

    find_package(OpenSSL REQUIRED)
    target_link_libraries(main PRIVATE OpenSSL::SSL OpenSSL::Crypto)

We used to buy Precision 5500 series laptops (latest model: 5560), but they have issues with thermal management. Over time, the battery expands due to temperature to the point of moving the trackpad up. Now we are giving Dell a new chance using the 7500 series (now 7760).

The 5560 is between 7.7mm (0.30") (front) and 11.64mm (0.56") (rear) thick. The thickness of the 7560 is between 25 mm (0.98") and 27.36 mm (1.08"). The increased thickness should solve (or help solve) the overheating.

Smaller note: Barcelona can be decomposed in three Catalan words (a happy accident): Bar, Cel, Ona, meaning Bar (yeah, this one is easy), Sky and Wave. Being a mediterranean city, fits quite well :)
