  • Apple researching return to distributed computing in iPhone and Mac

    Apple also had Logic Node, for distributed processing of Logic workflows. They may have had something like that for Final Cut as well, though I am not sure. It would be nice if all the Pro apps could utilize a shared framework like that. 
    It is true, and Compressor has an easy to use Node (xGrid) system in Preferences to create a cluster. I am currently repurposing five Mac Pro 2013 machines into a Cluster Farm for encoding that my Digital Media students can use to offload from laptops. It’s not perfect, but those unused 24 Xeon cores can come in handy in a pinch.

  • Apple engineers reportedly testing new prototype AirPower with A11 processor

    I think there is more to the story than just managing heat. Communication with devices on the pad, other devices in the room, and possibly devices in the home. Not HomeKit would be sweet. U1 chip, too? Who knows what engineers are dreaming up! Dream up ideas folks and enjoy the ride >
