If she gets hired by Apple, I hope they don't ruin her too fast.
My guess would be she bought the Mac specifically to tackle this project.

They are also on a different process shrug
So they are competitive, because they are a node ahead?
Apple took the power reduction.

Truly impressive work. > Where do people get this knowledge? Time, hands-on experimentation, and focus. Anecdotally, reverse engineering and low-level hacking felt more popular back in the 90s and early 2000s. Back then, there were fewer distractions to soak up the free time of young tech enthusiasts. Old IRC chatrooms feel like a trickle of distraction relative to the firehose of Twitter, Reddit, 24/7 news cycles, a…
There is a world of difference in free time between "having a 9-5 job" and "being in high school", though. In high school, I was lucky enough to not have to do laundry, feed myself, or a variety of other tasks and chores that come along with adulthood. I also could sleep like crap and make it up during school the next day. Not to mention that the time I spent at school wasn't spent programming, so when I got home it…
Knowing what to work on, what trends to be aware of, where to present your stuff is something that a modern elite collegiate is intimately familiar with.
Other teens and young adults, not so much. I myself having been one such and friends of other such.

Well, they clearly at least commissioned them from someone else, since they are the ones distributing them.
Intel Macs are literally PCs. The Windows drivers that Apple bundled up for Boot Camp were the same drivers that the respective component manufacturers provide for other PC OEMs to redistribute. In the entire history of Intel Macs, there have been very few components used by Apple for which there wasn't already an off-the-shelf Windows driver written by someone other than Apple for the sake of their non-Apple custome…

You have to read between the lines here. They make no claims about CPU performance - just integrated GPU performance from Xe (which is a big improvement from previous Iris GPUs.) Then they claim battery life (9 hours, FHD, 250-nits, etc.) What that means is laptop OEMs will have to limit TDP on CPUs - probably 15W or less. Given current Intel chips being very power hungry, these are likely NOT going to be great CPU p…
> Ryzen 5000U Am I right to assume we can see benchmarks within the next few weeks?
So I think there's a good chance in the next week or so we'll start seeing benchmarks.
