Yes, and also 0x. I'd say they are equally likely. 2x or 0.5x seem most likely to me. I own shares at about $20. It's my gamble since I don't casino or sports gamble :-)

Agreed, and to the sibling comment who ponders if the new CEO is too late to influence this... He may be. But he needs to decide if he thinks it can be solved, and if not immediately push the fab business out. Even if it gets pushed out to

Disclaimer: I've never been to the UK outside of Heathrow, but my impression is that climate wise it would be ideal for heat pumps. Cold, but not like COLD COLD. OK Google says 0F for the record low in London, compared to -15F in NY

It's not obvious where to draw the line on fiber vs starlink, both have a place for sure. Fiber should be about 10x the bandwidth, and half the latency, so it's preferable and should scale better in dense areas where wireless woul

Starlink would make sense for remote locations, but seems insane for things that don't move in populated areas.

Left field possibility: Warren Buffett He's a holder of TSMC so he gets it. He could talk to Tom Cook to test the idea. Disclosure: I own some INTC, because despite their massive struggles they seem under valued.

The personal debt to income ratio is actually not so terrible. I guess since rates are high it would make sense to fall since the cost of servicing the debt will rise. https://libertystreeteconomics.newyorkfed.org/2024

Our corporate Wi-Fi is shifting towards an open guess network. The idea blew the security team's mind, then COVID came and sure enough, most people worked from home or Starbucks or hotels etc, so all the sudden we had to assume the Wi

Big Dig also used ground freezing. https://babelniche.com/2024/01/17/innovations-of-the-big-dig... And the Erie Canal dig the sections through swampy ground in the winter. That was partially to avoid Malaria

I've been ramping up on UHD Blueray lately, especially since I upgraded to an OLED TV. It's a massive picture quality upgrade. I think I have like 6 discs, all ~$10. A mix of newer movies I haven't seen, and 80s-90s movie

Anycast and SNI mean someone like cloud flare only needs one IPv4 for their entire public facing service? Is that the gist? Obviously I exaggerate but I think that's their point?

Moisture management is the largest risk I know of with foam. Of course ideally the wood holding up your house or roof never gets wet, but if it does it's not an existential threat, unless it stays wet. Foam doesn't allow the wood

What Zscaler can and will do though is break your network randomly and in strange ways. They don't even seem to charge for that feature!

The first step to saying you're not doing any of that is saying you're not doing it. I work at an older company and it has successfully moved an number of apps to this model. Some will take another decade, but many are there.

I tend to agree, but I realize after losing money in Intel stock, that their manufacturing business is a huge risk, and that keeps price down. They have to spend many billions to build even a single fab. They have to fund those investment

Don't forget 2024 you probably has a much higher disposable income than 2006 you... And might be willing to pay to feel young again for a few hours. Off to buy some late 90s band tickets!
