64gb if you don't want to end up with swap. 32gb is the bare minimum.
Ram on m1 is split between gpu and cpu. 16gb is more like 10gb available to the actual application.
Don't believe in all the hype and misinformation surrounding ram efficiency on m1.
Swap is fast enough for most casual users to not notice the impact but as a developer or creator, you will definitely notice it.
They charge 5% per transaction.
I want to build a HN web client but it's not possible without scrapping the site which won't scale.

Anything attached to the macbook port is causing shock on the exposed parts while it is plugged into that charger.
I wouldn't call it safe. If you read some of the bottom answers, they also elaborate on the same topic. Furthermore, I don't live in UK and there can be different electrical standards in terms of wiring.
I don't face this issue while using the grounded charger hence it is limited to apple charger which I double checked for missing ground support.
They also handle guest plays much better. I've faced less cheating bots and no annoying pop ups on lichess when playing as a guest compared to chess.com
Can anyone point me to how they handle cheating detection? I would love a high level overview of how it works especially when you have no data on the player.

It doesn't require creating an account and giving up your phone number.
They use the same signal protocol with different trade off in terms of security and privacy[0]
My only concern is they are based in Australia.
