Did you know whether you are kind or insult them, you aren’t going to change their minds? The insult tends to leave a sting, and I’ve noticed people are less likely to add their misinformation the next time. At any rate, is there any climat

I’ve spent decades. They’re imbeciles! By the way, it’s still global warming but that was causing some confusion to some people because the weather locally might be cooler, warmer, wetter, dryer, etc. Hence, climate change seems to better c

“The climate is always changing” Yes, those people are mostly imbeciles. They argue that because Obama has a house near the ocean… and because people fly… You can have a discussion with them but be prepared to start over in the same place t

I’m not sure what we’re arguing here. I responded to someone who said that people in their 70s are already in decline. How many good years after 70 did she have? A few weeks ago, I had lunch with a friend and his 80-year-old wife. I would’v

Yeah, I’m just being lazy because I’ve answered this question many times. Here’s one from 3 years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34985088 You can always ask the AI: Politics & World Leaders • Nelson Mandela

The president of the United States is almost 80. Bernie Sanders is 83. The Stones are still touring, … Ed Thorpe is well into his 90s. Here’s an interview with him at 89. Seems quite healthy: https://youtu.be/CNvz91Jyzbg?si=

Yes, the term is “health span” and that’s basically what everyone is talking about every single time you read an article on the subject.

Don’t want to focus on the corporate espionage too much but even a little combined with getting a piece of the global semiconductor market should be sufficient to bootstrap China onto the global stage. Similar to how China is exporting EVs

Why do people think the world’s second largest economy (largest by PPP) can’t build its own semiconductor industry? Of course, it’ll be difficult but China has shown that it can play the long game.

ASML is also a monopoly that’s not American. You must be missing something.

Yes, but without external customers to pay for the newer advanced fabs, Intel can no longer afford to invest in fabs.

TSMC is now a monopoly with over 500 customers. It’s more than a money problem

Did you look at this headline? “The Chips Act wasn’t about raising revenue, and an equity share wouldn’t enhance national security.” Every generation of fab is increasingly expensive. TSMC has over 500 customers, including Intel. Intel basi

Yes, build fabs based on demand. Don’t spend $100 billion on capacity that’s not needed.

by melling 1y ago
He said he’s only building out 14a capacity as needed. A fab is $20 billion a pop. TSMC has 500 customers to pay for each fab. Intel has Intel. Every new generation is increasingly expensive. Intel needs to find other customers Why don’t yo

What does everyone read to go deeper into the semiconductor industry? Do people pay for SemiAnalysis? I downloaded Substack last week. There seems to be a few knowledgeable people there.

I have no idea how many times it has been explained that the “self-sacrifice “ method isn’t going to make a difference. People who don’t understand the scale of the problem came up with that.

Intel got left behind. TSMC makes their best chips because they can’t. They missed the AI boom. Only the paranoid survive. I hope Lip-Bu Tan turns Intel around.

Probably not true. It’s much cheaper to catch cancer early than to treat advanced cancer later
