This article is a treasure trove of dot connecting. The bit-code idea is born completely out of the potential for changing processor architecture. The article notes AAPL "isn't shy about switching processor architecture" and even brings up Bob Mansfield, and his "special projects".
But the link to an article in "Medium" by an anonymous author is the best part of all. Whoever "Inertial Lemon" is, knows something is up...but there's no refernce to POET.
Secrecy, under the radar stuff. Someone needs to park their car outside Storrs and see who comes and goes!!
