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 2GB? Generous.

My rule is, give developers PCs that match the smallest spec the software is supposed to run on. And plug your ears, because they'll whinge.

And your devs are staying in your company? Oh dear.

@NicolasConstant @mulander They do. Because that was spelled out when they hire on, and they're paid appropriately.
