"Being done", I'm not sure anything is happening here other than a happy user pointing out that Apple have some advances in this area, but .. your point is that this has been there all along.
Alas, if only there were the hardware at scale which supported Apples' Mach implementation, at favourable economies.
One way this is favourable to this dev is if Apple finally give me a machine which I can use to Build All the Things™, including iOS and MacOS and Windows and Linux and Android, oh my!, virtually and/or with x86/ARM cores onboard, oh yeah!, without having to resort to the typically draconian bollocks on other platforms, or rent someone elses hardware, or whatever.
A new Mac Pro that can be loaded to the gills and host several competing OS's at once, for the purpose of software development? Sign me up, because I'm tired of build-box'ing rigs and fighting that darn license ..

- aa-jv 3y agoSure, Mach is great. No argument from me here. Well except that, a new developer-focused Mac Pro with that centralized campus feeling, sounds great to me. I can only wish it would have both x86 and ARM cores onboard, though, to get that true all-round Mach prowess...
