I'm quite sure OS X has been running on ARM ever since Apple went to 64-bit parts in iOS devices. If Apple ships a non-intel Mac in the future, I expect them to start with the smaller portables, with an eye to maximizing battery life.
Nope. Apple has more CPU design talent in-house today than Sun, DEC or MIPS ever did. They're not buying standard cells off the shelf, they're designing CPUs and contracting the fabrication to outside companies.
You're confused about the difference between a CPU design, and a CPU specification. Apple designs their mobile CPUs. They conform to the ARM specification.
More like, this Byzantine complexity makes it easier to delay payment and deny coverage.
The ACA was the insurance industry's wet dream. Obama, the dems in congress, and far too many of the republicans, handed it to them on a sliver platter.
What? The motherfucker who betrayed every last one of us when he signed and extension to the PATRIOT act, which he knows full well is unconstitutional, is allowing the criminal class to try to defeat encryption? Say it ain't so!
Sorry to break it to you, but it's government that drives the consolidation. If you want to see a bunch of independent media outlets again, then fight for massive rollbacks in regulations.
Sorry to break it to you, but "fox news" is not some magic word that dismisses all the crimes committed by the people you worship.
Hillary Clinton has violated the espionage act, and other statutes relating to securing public records. She has knowingly attempted to destroy evidence. She has lobbied for foreign interests in exchange for millions of dollars paid into her family slush fund. She may or may not do time for it, depending on whether the Obama regime thinks they can get away with ignoring it.
She is a crook, and that simple fact would remain, even if Fox News had never existed.
quite a lot of Americans really are racists to a surprising degree
Yeah, and you can see them drop the mask whenever a member of a minority doesn't toe the leftard party line. The Democrats have always been the party of institutional racism.
From what I can see, it looks to me like Trump jumped in to do Hillary a favor by helping to deflect attention from Hillary's numerous felonies, and got way more attention than even he expected to get.

PA Semi was bought to help design mobile chips for iPhone, iPod, and iPad.
I met some of the PA Semi guys when I worked in Apple's hardware testing group. That's exactly what they're doing.

Apple use ARM CPUs, an open CPU design.

And even with something like Apple's GCD (Grand Central Dispatch) (which I am pretty sure iOS doesn't support)
What's your next guess?
GCD has been on iOS since iOS 4. We're up to iOS 9 now.
Any iOS app that uses AVMedia, the UIKit, Core Animation, and the rest of the standard frameworks benefits from GCD.

Models are not evidence. Measurements are evidence, models are an attempt to draw conclusions from evidence.
