    > RISC-V is 25x slower than a top of the line Apple M-series chip I don't think anyone has put the kind of money into a RISC-V processor that Apple has in order to develop the 3nm …

    Not a fan of paywalls, but the framing of the pricing comparison is just so funny to me. Like the guy who comes into the pub offering to sell dubiously acquired meat for a bargain …

    You have to either be entirely detached from reality or deliberately cruel to make statements like this alongside $20,000pa. Willing to bet the latter given Per Se was charging 5% …

    Honestly explicit sarcasm indication should just die out entirely. Might as well be writing it longhand as "Just in case you missed it, this is a joke haha." every time you tell a …
