Actually it does, thanks to the Ashahi Linux project. I'm using this fork on a M series

https://github.com/malik-na/omarchy-mac

Dual boot, it's not exactly the same as the main Omarchy, but it works fine out of the box. Software can be limited because not many packages has been compiled for ARM but we are software developers ;)

Counterpoint: if they have that much tech expertise and competency managing things they would have left and make more money doing more productive things :)

Been a while since I last used it but there is @tailrec in Scala. The compiler does enforce it and optimize the resulting bytecode.
It's from the president's speech. Too lazy to look up the actual text but I guess he meant "pillars", a common metaphor in East Asia. In English axis and pillar are distinct but in East Asia the line is blurry.

For example, the Japanese word 軸 (jiku) is used to mean the "axis" of a graph, but it is also used in business to mean the "core pillar/backbone" of a strategy (e.g., 経営の軸 keiei no jiku, literally "the axis of management," but conceptually "the pillar of management").

I don't have much confidence in it. I moved away after this.

The branch view and PR UI is terrible last I used.

Here's my corner https://winstonlee.org

Mostly obscure information that I couldn't find answers to anywhere but through trial and error :)
