I know the article mentions operational stuff like moving production to a different country and such, but I can’t help but wonder if it has anything to do with all the engineers that moved on from Apple to found startups and other companies that wanted a piece of the magic that Apple pulled with the M series chips..
Curious if any HNers in the know could spill such info with a throwaway
