You think "Autopilot" is a moat? Every other company has had that stuff for ten years and their systems actually work . Adaptive cruise control ain't new. And no, I don't think Tes…

Why do you think x86 can't go as wide as ARM? (I predict your answer will involve something about decoders and nothing about uop caches.) What goalpost have I moved? I have said on…

>A factor of 2-to-3 IPC difference? That is irrelevant. What matters is the product of IPC and frequency. x86 parts today are clocked much, much higher than Apple's parts. IPC and …
