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.

    Lots of tech companies might be interested. For example, at my work we are now stuck half way between x64 and arm, both on the server side and on the developers side (Linux users are on x64 and Mac users are on arm). While multiarch OCI/docker containers minimize the pains caused by this, it would still be easier to go back to a single architecture.

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