Using Apple Silicon (M1) as a cloud engineer, two months in

Love my M1, but a heads up – if you're dependent on Postgres-based tests running inside of Docker (quite a common usecase!) the performance is completely unusable still:

We're talking a suite that normally takes 30 seconds taking 10+ minutes.

My solution for such is parallels beta (m1 supported), and arm Debian Linux.

So you primarily use a virtualized Linux install on your M1 machine for dev work? That seems really cumbersome... at that point I’d just point to a headless Linux server
