Versatile software engineer with a background in .NET consulting and CMS development. Working on regaining my embedded development skills to get more involved with IoT opportunities.
Mojave has been the most frustrating Mac experience I have had so far. Switching away from Google Chrome improved the situation a lot, but I was having issues with drastic CPU spikes causing my fans to sound like an idling 747. I still have a 2013 MBP and it's becoming kind of evident that its days are numbered. I really need to upgrade to 16GB of RAM, but I am screwed courtesy of the soldered RAM modules. I love OS X, but personally I am not willing to pay for a new one. I got this one for free from my dad as a parting gift when he moved to a new state, and I'm looking at $3000 for a new MBP that satisfies the specs I desire and could get from a Windows machine at half the price. I'm sad about it, but I think it means I will find my happy path with a combination of Windows 10 and Linux.
