Qualcomm Takes on Apple: The Battle For Chip Speed
youtu.be
In this episode we dive into the how Qualcomm is looking to be a new challenger to both Apple and Intel. This was thanks in part to a purchase of the firm Nu...

Qualcomm brought a company named Nuvia, which are ex-Apple engineers that help designed the M series Apple silicon chips to produce Oryon which exceeds Apple’s M2 Max in single threaded benchmarks.

The impression I get is than these are for PCs and laptops

I’ve been following the development of Asahi Linux (Linux on the M series MacBooks) with this new development there’s some exciting times to come.

    Qualcomm chip won’t be binary compatible with Apple chips, so nothing will change for you.

      If you build a docker image on an ARM Mac OS with default settings it will happily run on Linux on ARM, the same for a Go app compiled with GOOS="linux", for example. Of course you can always fix the issues that pop up by also specifying the architecture, but people often forget, and in the case of docker it has significant performance penalties.
