How does that work tax wise? Does the California company have an office in germany? If so, do they still pay the same salary as in california?

Using inline assembly is perfectly fine. I don't think we disagree here. The only bad thing is trying to bend broken intrinsics into half-way doing what you want and complaining that it is too much work. Don't do that. --- Also, k

We develop high perf spatial data structures for computational geometry, so being able to draw is kind of critical. But I understand that not all jobs need this. People doing design or architecture probably draw more than we do, and people

That's all correct. Snow Leopard released in 2007 is the latest OS version to support these CPUs. Lion released in 2009 didn't support them. For me that was a killer back then and I had to upgrade.

I had one of those early Macs. If you check the official Lion support page from Apple, you will see that it requires an Intel "Core 2 Duo", that's the model that came after the Intel "Core Duo" (without a 2 in betwe

Does your project use CMake ? CMake supports these with all major compilers... I'll just google "<your build system> pre-compiled headers" and see if there is a flag or option that you can enabled. You will definetly ne

That's unfortunately incorrect. The first generation Intel Macs used Intel Yonah cores "Core Duo". Those were the ones released in january 2006. These models were discontinued in September 2006, and replaced by Intel Penryn c

Apple TV is the worst apple product i've ever owned. Last year, they released a software update that broke YouTube support for like 5-6 months, and once they "fixed" it, they immediately announced it would be removed 3 months

Right, but if you get a good monitor, it will serve you what, 10 years ? 15 years ? What do you do with this monitor when Apple stops supporting the first generation of ARM CPUs and you have to upgrade to a new Mac in 4 years ?

The macbook air screen is ok, its webcam is horrible, it doesn't have a touch screen, so you can't use it as a "digital blackboard" for remote work, and it can't use multiple monitors. The iPad has a great front cam

by volta83 5y ago
Also, ring enforces everyone to use the latest version by pruning older versions from crates.io, which means your builds will fail every time they update. Main reason I stopped using it.

I don't see how this deal changes that. ARM does not make CPUs (it makes CPU IP), Qualcomm does. The fact that NVIDIA builds bad ARM CPUs does not change with the acquisition as far as I can tell. For that NVIDIA would need to invest a
