I feel encouraged to upgrade, because the more I can do with coding agents the more I am getting limited: cloud coding agents are running on shitty VMs (no GPU), my laptop is melting down whenever I try to do a few more things at once.
I am putting off hardware upgrades because it’s 3.5x more expensive than it was 2 years ago.
A new laptop isn't 3.5x more expensive, so I guess you just mean a memory upgrade?
Yes and surprisingly also so is my office. Just waiting for memory and hdd bubble to pop.
