Wonder how much of the world’s code is dependent on x86 versus being processor agnostic
Or to come at it another way, what percent of the world’s deployed x86 capacity is devoted to running directly compiled code versus some sort of bytecode from an abstraction layer or two away

Good insight... IME coding for ARM devices, I think the answer to both angles might be "too much"

Oh doh, for a moment I thought it was yet another industry acronym I didn’t know. Each time I do a spot of work in the industry I learn a few new ones.

Is there an x86 to ARM porting workflow? Do you just recompile source or does code have to be manually reoptimized for ARM or something?
