Leaked Apple ARM CPU benchmark beats Intel Core i9 16-inch MacBook Pro


Leaked Apple ARM CPU benchmark beats Intel Core i9 16-inch MacBook Pro from r/technology
A newly leaked benchmark shows Apple’s ARM-based A14X Bionic processor outperforming an Intel i9-powered MacBook Pro by a healthy margin. The new chip is expected to debut on November 10 during Apple’s “One More Thing” event.
An unnamed device powered by the A14X Bionic chip was reportedly benchmarked in Geekbench 5, which was likely an engineering sample, according to Wccftech. In terms of single core performance, the A14X Bionic scored a 1634 and a 7220 in multi-core performance.
This was slightly ahead of the iPad Air powered by the A14 Bionic, which scored a 1583 in single-core and a 4198 in multi-core.
Meanwhile, the big coup for the A14X Bionic was how it outperformed a 16-inch MacBook Pro powered by an Intel Core i9 CPU, which scored a 1096 in single-core performance and a 6869 in multi-core, which is a good bit behind the new Apple silicon.

Is “WFH” really a good thing?


Bill Gates predicts that most in-person meetings will be a thing of the past and that “50% of business travel” will never return after the Covid pandemic.
If this is true, is it good or bad? And how do we adjust to it?
In a recent businessinsider.com article Bill Gates said:
“My prediction would be that over 50% of business travel and over 30% of days in the office will go away,”
But also goes on to say:
“More could be done on the software side to allow for serendipitous run-ins after meetings,”
As of mid-October Microsoft announced that they are moving 150,000 people to permanently work from home.
Inversely, there are arguments claiming that the “WFH” mandate is hurting their creativity and ability to collaborate and innovate.
In an article written by Joe McKendrick, he argues that work from home culture could be hurting our creativity and our ability to rapidly innovate.
“The team can come unglued pretty fast as members begin to feel psychologically disconnected from one another.”
“61%, report they have not learned how to effectively delegate and empower virtual teams.”

Wisdom from Reddit:
“This was such an issue in Japan before, though on a usually smaller scale. We’d go back and forth between companies all over the city for minutes-long meetings, wasting usually half a day each time. Remote work has been so much more productive, though some people I work with see those who want to stay remote as ‘lazy’…” Reddit User kurodon85
