And this is not only about 2020, most likely people will use the machine till 2025. ( Also consider the fact that Apple solders the RAM to motherboard. )
Was absolutely concerned about this as well, but then say the timeline they are talking about (almost a decade) and decided to keep my concern in check, at least for another 6 years.
I either imagine hardware progressing so far in the next decade that this is absolutely moot or the language changing directions and some surprise coming out of left field to change this gameplan.
It is already starting. But most of those predictions may be widely applicable in 2-10 years.
It seems like all of these things will be feasible to some degree within a couple of years. It's hard to predict how long it will take for them to be robust and widely deployed.
Isn't it strange that we are celebrating being able to build things made 20 years ago, but in the browser?
I can imagine someone in 2032 posting somewhere: "Hey! I ported Crysis to the XXX "
Being XXX = an Augmented Reality 3D Browser or what comes next in 20 years from now.
I think it doesn't really matter one way or the other, anyway. Even if it takes 10 years to proliferate, at some point in the future, it'll be 10 years from now, and we'll be able to use it. depending on your usecase, maybe sooner.
They probably wont be using that model for another year, while people will be using that website for many years
