If the left and right arrows are full-size I know it's going to be miserable to use. Probably worse than miserable, because clearly nobody who ever uses the keyboard a serious amount has actually sat down and used it, or the arrow situation would have been fixed _immediately._ Who knows what else is terrible about the keyboard, given that it was pretty obviously not seriously tested?
(I'm poking a bit of fun here, but this _is_ still a dealbreaker for me. I use those keys plenty, and full-height left/right arrows are indeed _miserable_ to use - it's basically impossible to quickly center your hand on them from home row.)
I think the up/down not being full size is a bigger deal but even that is not a deal breaker
That said, although I agree it's not ideal, I've generally had little difficulty adjusting to these types of weird arrow key shapes, or things like odd locations for home, end, etc.
What always bothers me is the lack of gaps on the function keys. F8 and F9 turn the brightness up and down. How are you supposed to use those on touch? You can't really, not without those gaps to guide you. Sounds like a little thing, but it's always been a pain on every laptop I've had that didn't have those gaps. This, and the physical trackpad buttons, are a big part of why I generally use ThinkPads whenever I have the chance.
I guess I'm honestly wondering, who cares ? (not dismissive, what type of person/work and what design!?) fwiw I'm an eng and a big gamer so I'm constantly using keyboards and I can't remember ever caring or using those keys much.
Having the Home/PgUp/PgDn/End column on the right is the worst laptop layout to me though. I had a Vaio like that and even after using it as my main computer for 5 years it never ceased to annoy me that I had couldn't just put my hands down centered on the laptop, but had to shift my hands over to the left (or move the whole laptop right and tilt my head). And even Sony wasn't dumb enough to put a power button in the top right that you'll only hit by mistake when trying to delete.
I quite enjoy the tablet - it's a good enough system... Out of date by the time it was delivered; however, nice enough. I wouldn't have bought it at the price point had I known it was going to be so late to deliver.

(And why on earth is there a dedicated USB 2.0 port? To trick people into plugging in a USB 3 device and getting terrible performance?)
My ~/.cache/go is 6.2G, but it was about 25G when I cleared it out last week.
Of course you don't need* it, but that's what I'd do with 96G of RAM. My current laptop has 8G and I manage fine with that.
Using traces, I can easily run a parse, and then do things like "look at the attempt to parse a hyperlink in the 2nd paragraph after the 3rd headline" pretty trivially using the tree structure that traces naturally are in.
But, depending on the size of the document I am testing with, each execution generates 50+ GiB of traces, so to avoid putting significant wear on my SSD and to keep things snappy (both recording the traces and viewing the traces) I launch jaeger in memory-mode so the trace doesn't getting written to disk.
Also, its super nice being able to casually use /tmp as tmpfs for basically anything without worrying much about space.
