It is not as big of a problem as you think for 3 reasons. 1. Intel has purchased capacity from TSMC which will presumably be used for Xe HPC. 2. TSMC does not have enough capacity for AMD to take significant market share 3. Intel still has

The US Government tries the same trick. Social Security is a called an "insurance program" although it is completely unrelated to conventional insurance. The closest financial instrument is a Ponzi scheme, which is illegal under U

Your argument is as naive as saying politicians act in the best interest of their voters or that companies act in the best interests of their consumers. Entities act in the best interests of themselves.

Instead of accusing me of acting in bad faith, how about you do some research instead of mudslinging on the internet. I have provided evidence. You have provided none. To help point you in the right direction, why are the United Auto Worker

This is just fundamentally wrong. As a kid I refereed soccer games. There was a set cost structure for each game depending on age group and whether I was assistant referee or center referee. There was a system where I could sign up in advan

Joe Biden, who many believe will be the next US president has stated "I am a union man, plain and simple". His whole political career has basically been bankrolled by labor unions. If that doesn't indicate the power labor uni

Why do you get to decide what a fair wage is, or what a positive force in the economy is? Taxis are an obsolete service, Lyft and Uber are overwhelmingly favored by customers and businesses.

The heart of the issue is big labor unions want more power, and independent contractor status is a threat to their power.

I just willingly put one of these tracker in my car. I barely drive anymore due to Covid and USAA is attempting to charge me 180 per month. Metromile lets me pay 70 dollars a month + 12 cents a mile. No brainier decision at that price point

Your chain of causality is actually completely wrong. At 15 dollars an hour only a few companies can hire unskilled workers. At 1 dollar an hour many people can pay workers that amount, so there is more competition out there for wages. The

I completely agree, government is primarily being used as a way to make transfer payments from one group of people to another these days.

Enough is being invested, it is just being spent extremely poorly. No country gets less per dollar on education than the US. A good start would be supporting school choice so the public school's monopoly and cost structure can be chall

My Alma matter, also a regional university charges 47k a year in tuition. Assuming I take 12 classes a year and my classes average 15 students each, that puts the cost of providing a single class at $58,750. What the heck is going on for un

Theoretically some of the cost saving from an alternative payment processor would be passed on to the consumer.

Drivers aren't forced to drive for Uber. Anyone driving for Uber is doing it because they want to do so. What makes something a fair wage?

However there is no penalty for drivers refusing to take your to the airport once they show up. It's an absolutely infuriating experience. Drivers should be banned from the platform if they are not able to take people from downtown to

I don't understand why Rust is more compelling than ReasonML (OCaml). Reason is more expressive and on the web low level memory management isn't a concern.

The smartphone architecture is smart and well executed, but it is nothing revolutionary. The key is definitely that Intel has lost its manufacturing lead, which is letting other chip companies release competitive CPU architectures. Moore&#x

Why would a media company be special. This type of thing happens all the time, for example the US government banned a Chinese company from purchasing Lattice Semiconductor, the third biggest FPGA company (and really a much smaller player th
