- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

At $DAYJOB, we've been working on a service which uses Raspberry Pis as edge devices. And our product manager β bless him β has made sure we'd have enough hardware budget and wanted to buy only Raspberry Pi 5, so we'd have really good performance.
And I think, we really befuddled him with our reaction, because you know, normally devs won't say no to good hardware, but because our software happens to be efficient and Linux is efficient, we've just been like, eh, a Pi 3B+ is already a lot beefier than we need it.
We had to explain that to him like five times before he actually started to believe it. π
So you use the raspberry pis to edge, huh? I guess I have another use for my 3b+ that's been collecting dust.
Yeah, I considered explaining that differently, but figured it doesn't really matter for the story. π
It's "edge" basically in the sense that it's on-the-edge towards the physical world: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_computing
In our case, there's some dumb devices, which wouldn't be able to talk across the internet on their own, so we put Raspberry Pis next to them to hook them up to the internet. In other words, the Raspberry Pis just push network packages through, they're not going to be crunching numbers or whatever.
