That would leave smaller companies in the mid-west or other LCOL places behind. Only companies with enough revenue can compete (mostly tech).

With all the hidden fees and exorbitant cleaning fees, I think it is much cheaper to book a hotel than an airbnb nowadays. No wonder demand is going down.

If only, as the picture illustrates, we can go back in time!

How is it different from today?

ARM should gain about 30% in a single gen to be competitive with Apple/Qualcomm processors. It's going to be interesting to see if they can achieve this. Ultimately, competition is good for the consumer. Android phones are so far behind Apple, it is not funny anymore.

This is why we should only trust reviews from reputed independent publications. But good for the market and AMD if these claims are true. Competition breeds innovation.

The reasons mentioned are exactly the reasons to have work-life balance. You have time, you have energy, you have less responsibilities. You should travel, explore various hobbies, and experience new things. By the time you are in your 30s, you will have too many responsibilities to do anything else.

AMD/Intel run at ~5 GHz at peak. Using that vs Apple's 3.7 GHz, you can see that the M2 is roughly ~20% better than the others at iso power.

Is there any article comparing benchmarks for the same power envelope between Apple and AMD/Intel laptops?

All I find are comparisons with the desktop parts.

Apple pays a premium to TSMC to reserve the early runs on the next gen nodes. They can do this because they can charge their users a premium for Apple devices. I am not sure the rest of the players have that much pricing power or margins.

Any pointers to their advice as to what the reason is?

Pretty surprised by the results here.. wonder what changes are under the hood for such a good showing.

"Company X" in the comments is SiFive, I am guessing?

Why was the compromise made for LLVM 10 with the Apache license and not for GCC with the v3 GPL license?
