The machines provide 2 vCPUs and 8 GB of memory at $0.007 per build minute, while new projects continue to default to automatically scaling Elastic machines. ### Source excerpt Pro and Enterprise teams can now select Basic build machines. Basic build machines have 2 vCPUs and 8 GB of memory, offering a more cost-efficient option for smaller apps or agents that build with fewer resources. New Pro and Enterprise projects still default to Elastic build machines, which scale automatically and are recommended for most use cases. To use Basic build machines, update your project configuration in team settings, project settings, or with Vercel CLI 59.6.0 or later: Hobby accounts continue to build on the same 2 vCPU machines, now called Basic build machines. Basic build machines are charged at the same $0.0035 per vCPU per minute, which works out to $0.007 per build minute. See the pricing page or read the build machines documentation.

It's the year anniversary of the last time the world was normal and it's bringing me down. Between covid and immigration delays it's looking very 50/50 on whether I can attend my closest cousin's wedding this fall in Romania, and I'm beyond gutted at the thought of missing it. All I can do about it is wait, and that's making the pandemic fatigue worse by a thousand. I made two prints of Barnsley ferns. They looked cool in the end, but they were a bit of a struggle. Barsnley ferns are these super popular fractals that (spoilers) look like ferns, but honestly, fractals in general are not my favourite. These ones come out of 4 equations and 6 parameters which sounds like would open a whole world of possibilities, but it turns out most combinations of values produce absolute trash. Which is fine, but that's not my style of generative art. Instead, I spent all my random numbers in trying to paint the ferns like furry brush strokes and letters I don't think anyone other than me appreciates that 😅. I got deep into linocuts. I've been trying to figure out how to make the things that come out of a computer also come out of my hands, and hand prints can definitely be that thing. Doing the linocut itself is my favourite kind of relaxing; it keeps my hands busy with stabbing squishy things (also see: that time i picked up felting in meetings). I can't believe I haven't tried it before. Also, Frances says that the linocuts I've been doing look a lot like the kind of carving I used to do with my pottery, which is great news because that means I have a *~style~*. As usual, I am undeservedly lucky: one of my cousins, Raluca Iancu is an enormously talented printmaker and professor of printmaking, so I got to text her with questions. I don't think everyone who starts up with a hobby can text a professional in that area and be like "hello I bought 10$ tools and some linoleum, please hold my feelings with your 10+ years of dom ## A letter to my younger self DevFeed: [A letter to my younger self]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Jorge Castillo Published: 2021-03-06T10:00:00Z Content type: opinion Language: en Sources: [👨💻 Jorge Castillo]() Topics: [Learning](), [Programming](), [Data Science]() Tags: [advice](), [career](), [communication](), [developer](), [developers](), [hobby](), [learning](), [personal](), [programming](), [side-projects](), [soft-skills](), [team]() ### AI overview A personal reflection offering advice to developers early in their careers.
