Undertaking such a radical transition during the most tumultuous time in recent human history is arguably risky, at best

What is your character’s biggest flaw? How can the character overcome that flaw, or at least use it to their advantage, by the end of the story? Those are the sorts of things that can help you figure out where the plot should be going or what obstacles it should present to your character.

Consider the story above. The man is terrified that this bird will swoop down and attack him. So, what happens if it does? The bird swoops down, continually taking dives at the man’s head. He’s panicking…

As COVID-19 took hold and Apple, like virtually everyone else, adjusted to our new reality, the company was cooking up a generational shift, one that it would have to unveil during its first-ever virtual World Wide Developer’s Conference.

During the keynote, Apple CEO Tim Cook revealed that they were working on Apple Silicon (ARM-based processors, similar to those that already power all of its iPhone and iPads), and that it was set to begin the 2-year process of transitioning all of its Macs to the new platform (and away from Intel). While not officially combining its mobile and desktop platforms — MacOS, iOS and iPadOS — into one, the Apple Silicon would, among other benefits, allow for mobile apps to run on the desktop platform.

Shortly before the world plunged into a pandemic, Apple upgraded its popular, ultra-slim notebook with a new Intel 10th Generation Core i CPU and replaced the derided butterfly keyboard with the reengineered Magic keyboard it first unveiled with the 16-inch MacBook Pro in 2019. Little did we know that this would be the last MacBook Air with an Intel processor.

So let your character tell you what’s going to happen next. Ask them questions of what they don’t want to happen. Look inside at their fears and understand what motivates them to protect themselves from the outside world. Now, unleash that world onto your character and study how they respond. Give them opportunities to fight back, grow, fail, and grow again.

problem, multiplying many small probabilities together can be numerically unstable. To overcome this, we can use the log of the same function. The logarithm is a monotonically increasing function, which means that the maximum value in both cases — the original probability function and the log of the probability — are the same. It does another very convenient thing for us, it transforms our products into sums.

The MacBook Air’s brain transplant is an unalloyed success. After running on Intel gray matter for more than a decade, the transition to Apple silicon is surprisingly smooth and, in most ways virtually unnoticeable.

Well, that’s a boring story. Character driven novels should force the character into the world you’ve built. Make them do something. They need to interact with the world and be immersed in activities that will help shape them.

Man must go outside to put the trash away or get groceries. He makes it to the store without seeing a single bird (yay), but on his way out, a bird flies overhead. Does he drop the groceries and run? Does he use the food to defend himself? What interactions will he take to either withdraw or grow as a person?

Are there challenges that can help your character overcome their flaws or fears? Put them in. Let your character tell you what they don’t want to happen and then make it happen. Show their inner turmoil to finally gather the strength within themselves to overcome the challenge.

So let your character tell you what’s going to happen next. Ask them questions of what they don’t want to happen. Look inside at their fears and understand what motivates them to protect themselves from the outside world. Now, unleash that world onto your character and study how they respond. Give them opportunities to fight back, grow, fail, and grow again.

To support what might be a bumpy transition, Apple delivered a Developers’ Transition Kit in June to support Universal Apps, and Rosetta 2 to support applications that typically run on Intel CPUs but will need support for Apple’s ARM-based silicon.

The man realizes that the bird is just as terrified as him… because he’s hungry. Our man braves the little bird and offers him a slice of bread, inching closer to his biggest fear. Instead of screaming, the bird lets out a soft coo and accepts the bread without biting the man, flying off to a nearby tree where little birdies are happily waiting for food. Our main character learns that not all birds are bad, and they are only looking out for their survival. Inner growth.

And now we see inner growth. The man above is panicking, terrified, unsure of what to do. There’s a moment of clarity as the bird stands between him and the car. But something changes. Is it a look of curiosity in the bird? There’s a small injury on it’s leg that prevents it from standing still, which is why the bird is constantly flapping and cawing.
