Twitter Engineers Now Using MacBook Pro M1 Max

With the new 2021 MacBook Pro with Apple’s M1 Max processor, the power is there. This power appeals to Twitter so much that the social network has decided to buy full-featured models for its engineers.

Twitter to deliver MacBook Pro M1 Max to its engineers

It’s John Szumski, a Twitter software engineer, who shared the news in a tweet posted on Twitter. “I’m thrilled to be rolling out full-featured MacBook Pro M1 Max for all of Twitter’s iOS and Android engineers! “Szumski said in his tweet. Twitter’s software engineer says the social network “Saw improvements in both peak performance and thermal throttling that currently affect our Intel versions”.

I’m excited to be rolling out fully loaded M1 Max MBPs to all of Twitter’s iOS & Android engineers! We’re seeing improvements in both top line performance and thermal throttling that currently plague our Intel builds.

It’s the same on the Reddit side

For its part, Reddit did the same. A group engineer said on Twitter that they found that “The new 2021 MacBooks cut our build times in half with Android. Thus, for a team of 9 people, $ 32,000 worth of laptops will save $ 100,000 in productivity over 2022. The breakeven point is 3 months ”. He goes on to say that “Engineering hours are much more expensive than laptops!” “.

We recently found that the new 2021 M1 MacBooks cut our Android build times in half.

So for a team of 9, $32k of laptops will actually save $100k in productivity over 2022. The break-even point happens at 3 months.

TL;DR Engineering hours are much more expensive than laptops!
