There should be a global 'awareness' week for developers. For a week reduce your RAM to 2 GB, disable all cores except 2, downscale your resolution to 1366x768 and cap your internet at 1 Mbps (or less for mobile developers)...

Maybe, just maybe we will start to have less crappy, bloated software.

@mulander are you doing that yourself? What kind of machine do you use?

@Ninjatrappeur Thinkpad T420 with 2 GB of ram, half the cores offline due to hyperthreading being disabled in #OpenBSD (so two cores) - I am on a 20 up / 3 down connection but previous to that was on 3/3 for 7 years (upgraded like 1 year ago). I don't have an external monitor anymore and my resolution is 1366x768.
@mulander Are you also using this as your professional dev box?

@mulander You clearly hit the nail on the head here.

This would probably deserve a proper writeup.
