That was US plan all along: give Ukraine enough help so that they can continue the war, but not win. That's because Ukraine winning can have unpredictable effects on Russia internal affairs, including attempted coup, chaos, and someone

Every chip manufacturer does that, that's how they come up with cheap, low end parts. They just try to keep number of cores an even number, so the trick is less obvious.

But does the Hollywood movie about Touring mention it? No, it doesn't, and you know why? Because none of the Polish mathematicians who did the actual work were gay.

"Hoarding cash" caused by deflation is actually good thing, because it encourages frugal living. Current inflationary policies result in companies trying to sell people all kinds of useless crap, thus wasting natural resources and

"Secretly compelled" sounds illegal on the government side. In democracy if government wants to force you to do something they should go through official, due process, i.e. court warrant.

Well, Germans without a passport can still travel all around the Europe. Passport is only needed if you plan to go outside EU - that should be a factor in this comparison.

Because equal distribution of wealth takes away all motivation for hard work and innovation. There's no point to work hard just to have your profits taken away in taxes and distributed to lazy bastards that didn't bother to finish

I'm currently investing in Intel as a way of hedging the risk of Chinese invasion of Taiwan. Once the TSMC factories are bombed the competition for Intel will basically disappear overnight.

In my country millions of poor people drive 18 years old cars with average resale value of 500 USD. Maybe that's still a lot compared to people who starve in Africa, but we are not in Africa.

Some online services simply ask you to wave your 14-day return right if you want to start using the service immediately. Not sure why they won't do this in this case.

Well, Apple's revenue is $89B per quarter, NVIDIA's record-breaking revenue recently was $13B, so here's your answer. NVIDIA might have high margins on some of their products, but Apple has both high margins and high volume.

What if you own both entities? And you also own an exchange where the trading happens, so you give them both special Black Friday deal: 0 transaction cost for the next 12 months.

That's for your local BLM chapter to decide, not you! Also, isn't using a black laptop by non-black person an act of cultural appropriation? Apple should at least test your familiarity with Critical Race Theory before selling you

What do you mean by max spec? In my country the 16inch, M3 Max, 128GB RAM, 8TB SSD is 9666 EUR[1] - France seems a lot cheaper. [1] My country does not use EUR, i calculated it based on the current exchange rate.

I would say TSMC product is actually a half product. They have a fabrication process, but they do not have their own chip design. And there is no way in hell that Intel or AMD processors would reach the same profit margins as M3. Which is w

This is what should be pointed out every time someone brings up Apple “monopolistic practices” of outbidding the competition for TSMC capacity: without money from Apple TSMC wouldn’t be able to finance building so many factories at once.

How else would it work? You burn fat (as in: you turn it into energy, powering your own living cells), turning it into CO2 and H2O, which are then breathed out or expelled with urine.
