    I own the hand-held variant (IIRC the https://snapklik.com/en-ca/product/sontiy-brass-handheld-bid... ). Think of it as a (very) specialized hand-held shower that's connected to (a…

    On the one hand it's a mismatch between the OS' (aka C) model where it's expected to have ~1 per cpu core and they come relatively heavy with a full C stack's worth of memory pages…

    While I hear what you're saying, I doubt that's often the case. Either you have a company who either tolerated bad employees for a long time or just figured out they were bad at th…
