This is a middlebrow dismissal. From what I can see this article played out exactly as predicted, and the idea that NeXTSEP rans on multiple architectures in the 90s is just half-assed retconning. In 2014 the conventional wisdom was that Intel was best-in-class and would remain dominant.
Per the other thread, I'm not seeing the storyline that the author is arguing that Mac OS will run on ARM but still be first class on Intel architecture. We can assume that is not the case because Apple doesn't half-ass their transitions.
Please highlight what you think the prediction got wrong so we can talk about that specifically.
I'm not dismissing the prognostication that Macs would ultimately run on ARM (though to be honest that was obvious a long time ago). I'm dismissing the breathless way in which the author announced that somewhere, somehow, a Mac was already running ARM in the bowels of Apple in 2014. Of course it was. It was doing that a decade prior.
