Ah, I guess it was wise for the original developer of Rosetta 2 to quit earlier this year. One of the people that I look up to.

My reasons for leaving Apple had nothing to do with this decision. I was already no longer working on Rosetta 2 in a day-to-day capacity, although I would still frequently chat with the team and give input on future directions.
Just went through that thread, I can't believe this wasn't a team of like 20 people.
It's crazy to me that apple would put one guy on a project this important. At my company (another faang), I would have the ceo asking me for updates and roadmaps and everything. I know that stuff slows me down, but even without that, I don't think I could ever do something like this... I feel like I do when I watch guitar youtubers, just terrible
I hope you were at least compensated like a team of 20 engineers :P
History doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme: the initial (re)bootstrapping of OS X for Intel was done by one person, too.

I think a single 10x developer is really good for this kind of system programming projects.
Thank you for your work!
Thank you for the clarification!
