> With the shift to Arm, languages compiled for a runtime interpreter will get even more important for Microsoft. How's that? Apple and its app ecosystem just ship universal binaries, so native, heavily optimized x86_64 and aarch64 code is always ready to go with no added fuss for the user. You could certainly argue this makes already-large binaries even larger, but users care much more about CPU & RAM efficiency than on-disk binary size. Especially on ARM machines that many people buy for battery efficiency in the first place. On Linux you don't even bother with universal binaries because you just ship the entire package repository already built for the target CPU. It's only more fuss for the user if they need to pick specific packages from outside their distro. Has Microsoft still not managed to make something similar work on Windows?
