I'm envious. I like the hardware a lot. But at the same time, I can't help but think "This has to be the most powerful computer ever built to run a browser and a terminal". I can't run PyTorch with acceleration, I can't use Numba, or CUDA. It seems it will soon be possible to use Blender, which for my artsy side is a plus, and I know that a few of the other design tools I use work on MacOS with varying degrees of acceleration, so there is that.

These are not insurmountable, probably only a matter of time. Tensorflow has already been ported and optimised. https://blog.tensorflow.org/2020/11/accelerating-tensorflow-performance-on-mac.html https://blog.tensorflow.org/2020/11/accelerating-tensorflow-...

It’s obviously not for you, yet, then? People who need PyTorch or numba or cuda are a vanishing minority even in the tech scene.
