These are rules to live by. For smart phone users I'd add, assume any text message demanding payment is a scam. UPS doesn't have a package for you, you don't owe bridge tolls, and you didn't just spend $386.68 that you can download the invoice for by clicking here. Never follow a link in a text message, it's very likely it leads somewhere bad.

There is an alternative to dual booting: virtualization. When I need Vivado, I run it under ARM Windows 11 in a virtual machine on an M4 Mac. Yes, I know that Vivado is an x64 app. The installation was a little bumpy, but it runs well enough under Windows x64 emulation (Prism) for my purposes. The virtualization software I use, Parallels, has excellent filesystem integration, so my development files aren't "trapped" inside the Windows 11 virtual machine. As an added bonus, I turn off networking for the Windows 11 VM, so I don't suffer from the telemetry and update churn. If anything were to ever go wrong with the Windows 11 VM, I can simply roll back its entire filesystem from a snap shot since none of my development files actually live there.
