If only this would be an incentive for people to stop using electron for everything and start making memory efficient software again.
Yep, for way too long it was cheaper to buy more memory than to pay for good developers.
You don’t have to use electron crapps.
It’s quickly becoming a “the best time to build a pc was 2 years ago, the second best time is now” situation.
I wonder how it will compare over time, will the overall performance you can get per hour of labour in wages go up or down?
If a high end PC costs twice as much, wages only go up 50%, but high end PCs are twice as powerful. You are still getting more performance for your work. But if performance and wages barely change while costs rise significantly, now performance for labour has actually dropped. Generally more interested in how it compares over longer time frames rather than month to month spikes.
He’s probably right. Inflation will likely catch up and the prices won’t go down in any significant manner. We ran into this years before the RAMpocalypse, while searching for a sub-200€ GPU, or trying to build a sub-500€ entry level gaming pc.
