I wish we could run critical workloads on a single server using a single powerline and a single network connection, with unknown heating solution. Then, this comparison would make sense. As for hobby projects, anything goes.

To give you an idea of how expensive cloud has gotten, I picked up a server off FB marketplace today for $500. 128Gb of RAM and a 1Tb SSD. It will cost about $6/month in electricity to run it. An equivalent server in AWS would cost $950/mo. so I'll have payback in two weeks.

New junior developers can't actually code. Fantastic blog where the author argues that AI is preventing devs from understanding anything. Unlike the internet which only replaced fact lookups but adds explanations, AI replaces all reasoning.
