> Yeah, it probably is Apple.
Did any publicly evidence appear officially or accidentally on the internet that Apple is working on such a project (for Microsoft the situation is known)? I am just a kind of person who prefers strongly to look at the evidence instead of rumors, speculations and hopes.
- tyingq 9y agoApple is notoriously secretive, so you won't get the evidence you're looking for until such a device is very close to launch.
- wolfgke 9y agoOften evidence leaks beforehand for new Apple products or plans.
- Q6T46nT668w6i3m 9y agoSure, but some of this can be learned from monitoring LLVM patches and discussion groups (or attending the usual conferences). It's difficult (or impossible) to keep secrets like this from their underlying communities.
- TheCoreh 9y agoApple has three (iOS, tvOS, watchOS) of their four platforms on ARM, so LLVM patches related to OSX on ARM could probably be plausibly disguised as patches related to these platforms.
- sliken 9y agoApple did make some noise about getting rid of support for 32 bit binaries. Reading between the lines this could be because intel owns many patents related to x86. 64 bits is less of an IP nightmare because AMD created x86-64, not intel.
