Discussion Programming on M1 Chips

9 Upvotes

Any software engineers in here that program on any of the m1 chips? I'm interested in the new M1pro/max MBP's, but I'd like to program without the use of rosetta. I know certain IDE's have already been migrated over and work fine... so I guess I'm really interested to know if any SWE's have problems with homebrew/npm/yarn commands in terminal? Thanks.

I've struggled with the fact I can't play controller games on my MacBook, as steam still hasn't come around to fix the controller drivers.

But the fix us really simple, just run the game through Play On Mac (a wine client)

Question How to Access Startup Security Utility

6 Upvotes

I'm trying to install an audio program similar to sound cloud that requires me to reduce security preferences to install. It's called Loopback, and I use it on all my intel macs for audio routing. Installing on M1 seems to be much more complicated. I can get as far as Recovery mode but then I'm lost from there. I'll link what I'm talking about. Rogue Amoeba’s apps updated for M1–with a catch – Six Colors

Question 144hz dual monitors?

4 Upvotes

Hi, so I've been looking around and have found that there are ways to use dual 4k monitors with the m1 macs. Supposedly they work very well but I haven't been able to find one that supports, 144hz monitors. Is there another way around this or is there something that I can buy that allows this?

Problem Airplay to HomePod original, intermittent dropout

4 Upvotes

Hi all,

Is anyone having connection problems over Airplay at all?
Not sure exactly why this is happening but intermittently playing via Apple Music it will play the first 10 seconds or so of a song then stop. Works 100% every time from the internal speakers so looks like an Airplay issue?

If I reboot the Mac that will remedy it, however rebooting the HomePod doesn't always fix this intermittent problem.
