Austin. Lots to do outside, no state income taxes, great food/nightlife, significantly less homeless than San Francisco. I feel like everything is new and clean in Austin. It gets hot in the summer but personally I prefer hot than cold. Also lots of tech jobs. Kind of a no brainer for me.

Yes it sure is. Stripped down version of it. Also this is just my guess which is probably wrong. Guess we’ll have to see right ;)

Call me crazy but my bet is that Apple will eventually do an iPadOS to macOS transition, kind of like they did with iOS to iPadOS in 2019. The existing macOS would be scrapped for the iPadOS fork of macOS. This would simplify their operating systems into one “Apple OS” where individual features/layouts can be configured based on the host device. MacOS would still look like Mac UI and iPadOS would still look like iPad UI. This would make easy for developers to make a single app for all of Apple platforms and would allow Apple to release more uniform OS updates. As for the x86 to ARM transition, I’ll bet they make developers rewrite their apps for this new platform, kind of how they dumped support for 32-bit apps in Catalina. If it’s a Catalyst app, then it will automatically run on ARM and x86. Others will be left in the dust.
