Just from outside you say?
I’m waiting for info about A language now.
Seems like Qualcomm is getting there. Latest generation is not bad, though battery usage seems still a not-so-brilliant (according to early reviews).
OTOH one gets Holly C, so it might be worth.
On the bright side, ARM is getting there, plus there is RISC-V that is rising as well, but it still has some road ahead.
I’d even buy subscription if it was a family one without music bundled for a reasonable price. No such luck in my country.
But aren’t both the same speedwise?
It’s primarily about safety, not speed. Any C or C++ program should match the speed but not the correctness.
I think the ramifications of what Israel did will go far far beyond fear in non west countries. We entered the stage when you can’t trust your device anymore to not explode when some state (or non-state) actor would deem you disposable. Everybody should be concerned when they receive a phone call. If nothing else, it should change the way we fly - now security will annoy you with prohibiting bringing even water on airplane. What now? We should travel without any electronic device? Heck, even China didn’t go that far (west is banning their devices mostly for economic purposes even though they mimic them as ‘security’).
