There are workarounds for everything. The problem with the Mac is that I have to work around everything. No C API, XCode, lack of extension support, driver bugs, poor documentation, weird manifest files, the OS switching run directory randomly... You cant behave like that when you are a small platform.


Thankfully there are vendors out there willing to move beyond C, unlike Khronos.


A trillion dollars says you absolutely can behave like that.


The trillion dollars says you can behave like that on a large platform (iOS), but not much of that trillion dollars comes from the Mac, a comparatively small platform, does it?


Aren't those destined to converge as one?
