From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_M1#Memory
> The M1 uses a 128-bit LPDDR4X SDRAM in a unified memory configuration shared by all the components of the processor.
I assume that includes the NPU, media engine, etc.

In St. John's NFLD, many houses around the downtown are painted like that as well. I love the look.
Apparently, they would use boat paint because: A) they had a lot of it and B) it holds up well to the elements.

When the term FAANG was coined, those 5 companies were paying engineers around double what they could ask for anywhere else. I believe that's when software engineers started grouping them together. It became a goal for many young engineers to join because of the fantastic salaries/benefits.
Things have changed since then but the point remains, FAANG generally means "large company that pays above market for software developers."

I know how you might make money. You build a game. Maybe its fun and ripe for mods like minecraft. Open source it under GPL. Build a community of hackers/gamers who want to learn and collaborate. Have an awesome collection of mods for your game. Once you build a name for yourself, take donations or release a new game or talk at conferences.

People interested in building browsers should look into WebKit. You can use that for HTML/CSS/JS rendering and save a lot of time/effort.

Did the name "XBox" come from the fact that in ran DirectX? Sort of short for DirectXBox?
