Funny enough, I've got a 2013 (?) Mac Mini with 8GB of RAM and a 2560xwhatever monitor. It's good enough for the vast majority of the development work I do, whether it's HTML/JS/CSS stuff, or iOS stuff, or Elixir projects, or C/C++ projects, or whatever.

Unless I've got Slack, Keybase, Spotify, etc open. Those just cripple the machine. Also Outlook, but I recently replaced it with Thunderbird and it seems to run much better. I find that my complaints are mostly met with accusations of being an old man (I'm 34...).
