Chip investment was already down-shifted in 2019 because it was a down year based on historical semiconductor cycles. Then COVID triggered a collapse of nearly all JIT supply chains (not just medical). Try getting ANY industrial or consume

Very true. They are NO MORE a tech company than WeWork ever was or is. Simply using "IT" to do a non-technical job does not make you a "tech company"!

A major distraction from what they actually know how to do. There are still so many things undone with their current product line but I guess they can't see the forest for the trees at this point, leadership-wise.

So wrong! Non-silicon is 10x-100x more expensive and 10x-100x less fit for most applications. Non-silicon (aka compound semiconductors) are only 1% of all semiconductor revenue and volume. Switching from majority semiconductor to tiny mino

Mostly correct. But the problem is that these are literally the points of Green proponents/Anti-climate-change people. They have a religious, purist, orthodox attitude - ZERO fossil fuels ASAP! Only a portfolio of all sources can ena

I was just in Trona and Boron today - nearly half of the world's borax and boron chemical supply come from these two places in the Mojave. From saline pumped from under dry lakes. The same places supply much of the soda ash and bicarb

It's definitely an American thing. The primary cause of hating disco in the 1970s was that it was gays, blacks and latinos who were associated with it. And that and corporatization of music by the very same boomers that's kept di

Honestly everyday people aren't becoming woke - when they actually find out about it, they get majorly pissed off and angry.

It PRIMARILY DOES mean this as it's IMPLEMENT in 99.9% of businesses. Toyota's implementation is NOT NORMAL OR COMMON.

Do Japanese women WANT that place? I'm bet money they don't just like how American women don't.

People have a right to take that risk!

Not really. It's that they have ZERO competition AND the problem of inventing/manufacturing the technology is so hard that no one can afford to compete and its barely viable for ASML as it is. The other issue is that $150M for a

"Wars on X" have NEVER worked except in elementary symmetric warfare (where both sides where well visible uniforms and do not practice any stealth techniques). The "War on Drugs", "War on Poverty", "War on

Smallpox ONLY infected humans. COVID and other coronaviruses infecting dozens of animals. And genetically they are as different as a worm is to a human.

If you know ANYTHING about coronaviruses, you know COVID will never be eradicated. There has NEVER been an effective vaccine against any coronavirus. And the current vaccines have NOT CHANGED THAT FACT. The nature of coronavirus pretty muc

Get stuffed! Snowden made the ultimate sacrifice for the USA and its Constitution. I was put in a similar situation at one time: I was read-into a top secret program and the only part that required that level of clearance was: "We are

Sometimes it matters. Until it doesn't. It depends so much about the particular market, business model and technology.

Why do you hate free speech and open discussion? Why do you hate antivaxxers - are you trained in medicine, molecular biology, etc. or is this nothing more than orthodox ideological position? The scientific method and science itself is NEVE

Equality means women can be pedos too! Women cheat as much if not more than men. So this should not be a surprise.

Like many things, you can't create a "static system" and get perfect results. That's what Checks And Balances are about in the Constitution. That's what iterative development is about. That's what iterative

Koyaanisqatsi requires watching the film at some point as well. Just listening is good to get a first experience. Then the film can give a more complete artistic picture/experience.

Of course she will. So many women are incapable and seldom take responsibility for their OWN bad decisions; it's always easier to LIE and BLAME others. Standard MO.

It's NOT a real approval: 1. It's a redundant renewal of the existing Pfizer under the exact same EUA - thus STILL NOT finished clinical efficacy and safety trials 2. It "pre-approves" a new future Pfizer vaccine that ha

This sounds far too much like phrenology and tendencies to be criminals. Default position: it's probably bull shit!
