Apple Linux
- Does Apple allow Linux on work computers? Would that create problems with internal tools? Starting soon and Id like to know what to expect. Thanks
- How many billions would be saved if tech companies stopped using apple and used linux laptops instead? Only reason I see is iOS / apple products dev and apps but vast majority of software engineers don't even need that.
- How to prepare for a Kernel Engineer interview at Apple? Can any Engineers chime in on what is being looked for? What should I focus on studying, what should I ignore, is Linux a taboo word? Does Apple care about open source contributions to Linux projects? What’s the LC bar like? #apple #interview
- Can you only use MSFT products when working for MSFT? I assume you can’t get an Apple laptop, right? What about Linux? Can you use other browsers than IE?
- What machines used by NVIDIA engineers to do software development? Heard that NVidia does not allow Apple machines as part of hardware given to developers? Please tell me at least they allow to use Linux?
- Why would a developer not use Linux? If you are a developer you are writing stuff that will run on Linux (except few cases). All tools and frameworks you develop with are available on Linux and all best software are for Linux and based on open source (ES, Cassandra, React, Kafka, whatever you mention). From a technical perspective, it

- Are all laptops feel flimsy compared to MBP? The thing is - l like Apple hardware, but I want to have a normal Linux dev env. I tried various Lenovo laptops, but you don't have this warm feeling that you can use it as a tray in cafeteria, as you do with MBP. Any suggestions?
- What do Intel and AMD people think of the new M1 Ultra? M1 reveals amazing incremental development. M1 Ultra claims are just mind-blowing for performance per watt. However, I am not a silicone expert but from what I can tell, this unlocks the same things Apple Silicone unlocks for iPhone, long consistent UX all around. While I understand the server CPU
