So Japan had some investment in the US guaranteed as part of their trade deal but then there were also talks that TSMC would purchase up to 49% of Intel. Does this fulfill either obligation?

This is the propaganda they were pushing about RealPage too until it turned out that it was happening and the market was being distorted. At any rate, if a buyer notices it happening in their area, then "it's not happening tha

It's always weird when Microsoft pulls an "embrace, extend, extinguish" but the "extinguish" part happens without their involvement or desire and then we're all stuck wondering how Microsoft got left holding th

Patient privacy is a nightmare for everyone to navigate and the Clinton administration isn't hated enough for introducing it. I can understand if people want their HIV diagnoses private but there's surely a line to be drawn, perha

Surely a 15 minute phone screen at the beginning with an HR rep would help thin the field, no? Just something quick for them to show that they know how to act appropriately, dress professionally, show up on time, and speak the language. Plu

You say that but I think everyone on here, myself included, is secretly hoping he does this to Boeing too after what they've done over the past decade.

Apple was investing heavily in Indian manufacturing to move off of Chinese manufacturing (allegedly, of course). India is free to supply other markets but that's not what we're talking about here.

How does this square with the Indian tariffs? Are they going to entirely abandon all of their efforts to shift to India from China and pivot to America instead? Or is this in addition to those efforts as a plea for the current administratio

Every big tech company is too afraid to fundamentally rewrite the front-end of the internet even though they’ve all produced wonderful alternatives to varying degrees (TypeScript, Dart, Silverlight, etc). Most likely because they don’t want

I'm not sure anyone but Intel is against that. Both US parties are most likely furious that the CHIPS act was a massive waste of money. TSMC would love to outright buy a massive US presence with valuable IP. The US desperately needs In

They don't. Valve got their profit from the incest/ageplay/noncon crowd and now they want to revert to their family-friendly image with that money drying up. This is just a convenient excuse to do so.

I can’t abide by that last claim. AI has been able to fetch some dead Microsoft documentation for me that I was not able to otherwise find through the regular channels. The code would have had to have looked very differently if not for AI.
