"Starting from $3K" likely means that the maxed out memory configuration will cost more than $3K.

I can't see how this will work in terms of a TDP. 2/3 of the 4090 power would be several times more power than can be effectively cooled in the physical form factor of an Apple Min…

Delta strain reproduces at ~1,200x faster rate than the already contagious original COVID19 strain. This is an absolutely massive difference and works on quasi-exponential scale! T…

In a mine -- constricted space of very small volume with forced ventilation -- the conditions would be ideal for getting infected with a very high initial viral load. Under these c…

Did not know this, thanks for the info, makes me even happier with my TIDAL subscription!

I have Plex lifetime sub and TIDAL sub, but never explored them in combination. Where would I start to learn more? Have you compared to Roon's or Audirvana's integration of TIDAL?

There is some subjectivity to it, but yes, I agree from experience. Have both Apple Music, for the kids, and TIDAL for myself, BTW.

Master quality is king these days, when "transparent" compression codecs are used. However, there are still many people who believe they can hear/feel the difference. You will need…

My experience has been that TIDAL CD quality streams are of great quality, and some of the MQA ones are brilliant. Of course, a lot depends on the master quality, that seems to be …

I fear there is a consolidation coming up for the music streaming services. Smaller companies like TIDAL will find it difficult to compete with Apple, Spotify, Amazon and Google. A…

Fascinating, so you are saying if a Rosetta2 like software can be made for Graviton or X1, that’d be an instant hit?

What is the x64 on ARM opportunity in a bit more detail? What would drive a billion dollar valuation for such a business? I would have thought that anything of lasting interest wou…

You are correct, static binary translation is what Rosetta does first. That, however, is what I called niche technology in another post, most of the research so far had focused on …

"If an app marks a page executable at runtime (such as a JIT) it will interpret that." Was that from a presentation on Rosetta2 that I have missed? It certainly makes sense, but al…

Understood, I called this "ahead of time binary translation" in my post above, and I know it would use JIT-based emulation when necessary.

Do you have a reference for this? If true, this could have some interesting implications...

It is more than likely that Geekbench will use CPUID to establish what it is running on, and then adjust its kernels to suit the host CPU architecture. Rosetta2 would be using a CP…

I am similarly curious about Rosetta2, but there seems to be very little marketing let alone technical information being made available. All I can figure is that it performs user m…

Killing someone under the influence is not an act which would attract lenience from the law in any developed country. The media, especially in Australia, has not been great at refl…

What do you know about Rosetta2 for MacOS 11 Big Sur? I know that Rosetta1 was using technology from Transitive, long ago purchased by IBM. Who supplied the technology this time ar…
