   Then with that 50:1 (I just checked, and it is for 2014 revenue) you're comparing the annual revenue of a company that licenses CPU cores with a company that makes CPUs, solid state drives, servers, networking equipment... so yes, obvi

   When Intel are selling hundreds of millions of processors a year and ARM are selling tens of billions a year? That's pretty much the opposite way around. (By 'selling processors' I mean 'licensing cores', of course,

    I grew up with Acorn computers. The Archimedes was an amazing machine for its time, and for an aspiring programmer, having a structured BBC BASIC (fastest interpreted BASIC in the world) with a built-in ARM assembler made for some quick lea

    While he did promote them, they were all built by Siddarth Chandrasekaran, who is still at Stripe. So hopefully he'll keep that up.

    In a few years, the US will have Internet speeds of a few years ago! Seriously, though, I hope they're laying fibre that will give them plenty of room to deliver at least 10Gb.

    OP called for "a specialized database". I was talking about using the same kind of database.

    It's a completely misguided concept. Database security doesn't mean having a completely different database implementation for each type of data you're using. There are already plenty of things you can do without going crazy l

    I'm not sure what difference you think gender makes, unless you think women are delicate flowers that must be sheltered from bad language, but I do agree that it would be better named something more office friendly. I'd suggest &#

    You asked what ARM could replace an AVR. I said there were lots of ARM Cortex-M based microcontrollers that could. Your response makes no sense. > No chip that needs an OS can truly replace an AVR They don't need an OS. > No chip
