Apple engineers reveal how they prevent Mac Pro overheating
ericthehalfbee said:I know for a fact that electric radiator cooling fans in newer automobiles use the concept of random blades to help with noise.But do they have hemispherical holes?
I understand (superficially) the asymmetrical blade design, but the use of hemispherical vs. spherical holes? Wow. That is some serious attention to detail, or at least not leaving any stones unturned.

A7: How Apple's custom 64-bit silicon embarrassed the industry
I thought another benefit to 64-bit was the opportunity to eliminate 32-bit-only cruft, further streamlining iOS when 32-bit apps were officially dropped in iOS11.

A7: How Apple's custom 64-bit silicon embarrassed the industry
uujjj said:I worked as a CPU architect on Nvidia's Denver project and on Apple's CPU cores. This article hits really close to home. DED nails all the details, even stuff that's known to nobody outside my little circle of Nvidia and Apple CPU designers.I never knew about Denver. These DED historical/technical pieces are fascinating to me.I wonder how much of an impact the forthcoming Mac Pro will have on Metal gaining ground on CUDA for high-end use.

Yup, I'm a lot more interested in how Apple did it, rather than how Samsung couldn't. But I guess it's a question of context.IMO PA Semi is the single most important prescient acquisition Apple have ever made. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_AppleI would love to see the Keynote slides presented to Apple's board of directors about acquiring PA Semi.
