Like, didn't you ever wonder why Apple always ends up splitting it's hit products into an SE(low-end), mid-tier, and (high-end)Pro model instead of just offering one great model that fits most needs and budgets?Īpple is meticulous and relentless when it comes to its product strategy.

It has become my goto device to trigger, monitor my pipelines, in cloud, local and other day I setup a Cluster of Apache Spark to process over 3 TB Data per day using an iPad.Ĭlick to expand.Apple most certainly and obviously has very clear overarching rules and guidelines to ensure that devices don't overlap each other in key areas of functionality, features and pricing.Įven within a line-up there are certain specs the low-end and mid-tier products can never get as offering them at lower prices sharply disincentivize sales of the high-end models. Its funny when people say you cant use ipad Professionally. If You need a full fledged computer buy one, iPad is not for every one. As some one who pushes all my devices ot max, I dont think iPad pro can ever run Mac OS in compact form, unless it has bigger area to dissipate heat. Like I said, I didnt try to convert ipad Pro in to laptop, but leverage its advantages. iPad Pro is more portable, and top heavy, which fits my ergonomic needs. I had a severe car accident an year ago, with head and neck injuries. I have Jupyter environment setup for inference or testing, which I pretty much use with my iPad Pro in bed.

My MBP and Linux Workstation pretty much run on Max load, Here is sample snapshot from my MBP working on a 300GB Data set, and taxing 80% CPU and 80% GPU. I use free Termius on Ipad pro for terminal, which is amazing considering I can maintain all my commands/activity accross Linux and MBP in single place.

Its pretty easy to sync between my MBP/Linux workstation or if i boot to windows on my linux workstation. All my code is synced and triggered with github/CICD actions. I use mostly Python and C++, with occasional swift or C. I use github, you can access visual studio in safari with v, and github spaces is free for 30-60 hours a month to execute or validate code.
