Is it a surprise that Linus, one of the most widely known Open Source people in the world, would favor an open/standard chip (Arm) over a proprietary/unsupported chip (Apple Silicon)?
- mikhailt 2y agoARM isn’t open either, it’s a proprietary ISA owned by ARM holdings, inc. RISC-V is an open ISA.
- simultsop 2y agoYour question is also obviously unexpected.
- wood_spirit 2y agoLinus famously worked for a while for a closed chip startup called Transmeta.
