Those are weasel words. They are not saying parallels will run windows ARM. Read carefully and see what they're actually saying. There is not even a hint that parallels will run windows ARM on M1 macs, but the sequence of sentences cre

It is possible, but docker is not yet ported. The docker images you run will have to be ARM images, as docker cannot emulate x86. Docker supports multi-arch images with their buildx infrastructure, so this situation will fix itself over tim

Microsoft calls their approach emulation, but if you read the details you see they are also translating instructions and caching the result (AOT translating). https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/porti

Even if they had seen two process shrinks more, the relative efficiency benefit of that wouldn’t have topped 30%, which still wouldn’t make intel chips competitive with the m1. What intel needs is both a better fab process and a new core ar

I love my T460p, which is a lot like that T440, but a macbook it is not. There are no good macbook pro level screens to be had on those older thinkpads, the trackpad is abysmal, and the machine as a whole is cumbersome to carry around. Also

They could use bloom filters and inherited trust to avoid having to send the signature of every executable to the internet. And there really should be a switch to turn this off for people who don’t want to be treated like children and will

For top performance you're looking at high end intel H series laptops ( https://www.ultrabookreview.com/20056-core-i9-portable-lapto... ) or Ryzen 4000 H series laptops ( https://www.ultrabookreview.com/36

Are those displays in scaled mode? Scaled displays tend to perform badly on integrated graphics, and suck up memory, because it has to render a 2x or 3x size internally and then scale down for every frame. Running something that updates the

You see the same order of magnitude differences between encoding 8-bit H265 on the 2020 imac vs 2019 imac. The T2 in the 2020 imac has hardware encoding ability for 8-bit H265. Now, the thing is: intel's AVX512 instructions are suppose

This may work. On a 2014 macbook air, which officially only supports only one external display, I've been able to use two external screens at the same time by sharing one through airplay. However, you're always limited in resoluti

There is no danger to AMD in the PC market from ARM. Apple will not sell their cpu’s to other PC vendors, and other ARM chipmakers aren’t even competitive with intel, let alone AMD. What this shows most of all is that the instruction set is

What I find troubling is that we don’t own our goods in the digital space. When you “buy” a kindle book, you don’t own that book, you own a license to read that cannot be transferred or inherited. That means that parents no longer can pass

Thanks for the mention of Orwell’s notes on nationalism. I just read it and it is remarkably relevant, even if the movements used as examples aren’t. As a European it was incomprehensible to me why anyone would vote for trump as I had only

Who you tax and what you spend tax revenues on is entirely based on a point of view. Calculating taxes is cold hard math, but deciding taxation and spending policies is not.

I worked with extjs 2 and 3 for years and honestly productivity was as high or higher than angular or react. It was a game changer and allowed us to build things an order of magnitude faster than before. I really liked it. What it lacked wa

Here’s something I don’t understand: Sierra was a money-printing machine, earning easy profits and on a natural growth path. With a trajectory like that, why go public, why sell the business at all? There was nothing to gain really, whateve

Are taxes really that high compared to other countries? India has a tax to gdp ratio of 10%, compared to 25% in the US and 40% in the EU. Maybe you are underestimating just how much taxes are required to fund an effective welfare state?

I think COVID quarantine has worsened this, as people are getting even more of their worldview through social media feeds instead of actually interacting with people in the real world. I think COVID is causing it, but in a much simpler wa

I was experimenting today with using my iphone as a webcam. It seems to work best with camo, and the image was way better than the builtin webcam of my imac or any regular external webcam. But I found it surprising how niche this still is.

Their satellites are mostly in low orbits that deorbit naturally after a few years. That doesn’t reduce the risk of collisions, but it does reduce the risk of being locked out of space for a long time. Still, I find it troubling that a sing

To write highest performance assembly code you need to understand more than the instruction set. You need to understand about cache hierarchy and how cache lines are filled, about microcode and how to fill the pipeline, including how to exp
