There’s an idea I run into frequently but don’t know if we have a proper term for — using a lower end computer (often an older laptop like one of the classic Thinkpads) when developing software.

There’s an idea I run into frequently but don’t know if we have a proper term for — using a lower end computer (often an older laptop like one of the classic Thinkpads) when developing software. Not just for using what you have and keeping it out of the landfill; but that those machines are both plenty fast and that it forces you to consider performance. Is there a better term than “low-end computing”?

@GuillaumeRossolini @mathias Friday. I try to use a Surface SE as my primary device at least one day a week. Modern software bloat makes it an ongoing challenge.
