7/12/2023 0 Comments Learning python on macNow I'm no Python expert, and I don't really understand what Scikit-Learn does, I just know I need it to train some TinyML models to recognise wake words on an Arduino Nano 33 sense board. One library I needed to use that isn't supported is Scikit-Learn. Apple have a translation layer called Rosetta 2 (Rosetta 1 was their translation from PowerPC to Intel), and this works great most of the time for every day apps, but it doesn't always work for development tools and libraries, as the mix of translated and untranslated stuff just breaks down. The downside is that not all software works on the new ARM-64 architecture. Did I also mention it's fast? I can have all the things running and it barely breaks a sweat, even with only 8GB of RAM. Seriously - I charge it every 2 days and manage a full day of coding, writing, emails, Teams, the lot. It's ridiculously fast, and lasts for ever on battery. At the end of last year I splashed out on a shiny new Apple MacBookAir with the M1 processor as I was fed up with an old Intel-based MacBookPro that was wuite honestly crippled by corporate anti-virus software.
