CORRECTION: You can run x86/x64 operating systems via lower performance emulation on M1 Macs on UTM.

Thank you everyone for your input!

armajid··on Ask HN: Options for Android phone no longer getting security updates?
From my experience (which isn't worth much but I have had similar thoughts about this) I went with a used iPhone 8 last year for around $180 because I thought it was going to get iOS 16, which it did. It's good until September next year (when the next iOS probably comes out) and at that point I will probably get a newer iPhone albeit probably a used one to save money.

On custom ROMS, a security researcher named 'madaidan' states that ROMs such as Lineage are insecure (https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/security-privacy-ad...) with GrapheneOS being an exception.

On the GrapheneOS website, it recommends getting a Pixel 6 and above which has 5 years of guaranteed full security updates (https://grapheneos.org/faq#recommended-devices).

Louis Rossmann recently released a video talking about GrapheneOS as his daily driver and breaks down some usability misconceptions. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIZmUINSvQ4)

When you say 'prevents you from writing apps' do you mean native iOS apps which (at least to my knowledge) can only be done on Macs? Or do you mean other types of applications?

Wow, thank you for sharing!
armajid··on Ask HN: To MacBook or Not to MacBook?
I see what you mean, thank you.

Thanks for the correction. I would be concerned of the lower performance (how much lower?) but this may be a nonissue now.
armajid··on HackerU: Lessons from Hackers on Hacking and Programming
"Hack the planet!"
armajid··on HackerU: Lessons from Hackers on Hacking and Programming
So I originally wanted to make a repo that had general CS and programming info but then I discovered OSSU's repo. Feeling as though there was still space for my general idea, I switched to lessons and maybe specific resources from hackers for hackers.

What are your thoughts on this?
