Of course not. It just seems that they might actually be the most transparent segment of this entire system which makes more visible. And well… from the society’s perspective high/…

Would you not expect companies which actually want to make to cores to have an advantage? And the companies that don’t want to make it their core business but can afford enough res…

Why (besides religious reasons)? I don’t see how can high-end/competitive RISC-V cores could be fully open/free and without that how is it better than ARM.

Possibly, but historically it high end semiconductors seem to turn into a winner takes all market more often than not. If that’s the case it’s probably preferable to have someone l…

> I don't but the ongoing war is for more land I don’t think more land per se is the objective. > As planned it's worked and USA has no answer to that problem What problem is that?…

Out of all places do you think Russia is the one which needs more land? Maybe because “the West” doesn’t want to “handle” North Korea (whatever that means)? I’m sorry but I really …

> today Russia Not exactly the fittest nor really that into survival (suicidal masochism would be a better description)

The islands themselves (and not the mainland where an overwhelming majority live) are closer to an amusement park than a real city

Problem is that without those old buildings there are no real practical reasons to live in Venice or build anything on top.

a ‘masterpiece’ is a very subjective term. Most are viewed as such not because of some objectively measurable quality but because of their uniqueness/originality (at the time) and …

IMHO ARM is one of the best things that ever happened in the computer industry. > non-toxic IP cores with enough performance from RISC-V Why would anyone also their designs to be u…

Or rather these ‘rules’ would only generally apply anywhere if the mural/graffiti was painted with the consent of the owner

That’s more of a stereotype which is really only accurate in some cities and even there usually only in the center areas/old town. 50-70%+ of all Europeans who live in urban areas …

Comparing anything but the total cost for employer (salary + taxes they pay + benefits) doesn’t make that much sense.

Are they, though? The legal minimum in most EU states is just 20 work days which isn’t even a full month.

> Couldn't be the voters in the south, must be The Media. You do realize that in even even in the reddest southern state (Alabama) 35% of people did not vote for Trump? Also that i…

Just demand/supply I guess. Semi-conductor companies need just a few (even if extremely talented) engineers compared to software. The industry is also very concentrated and not gro…

They might be putting themselves in a similar position as Intel though (maybe worse since I don’t recall Intel ever being as greedy..) if their competitors eventually catch up. Unl…

By being so much ahead of everyone else that they thought that didn’t have to do anything anymore. On desktop, anyway. Mobile is a different store, back in the mid 2000s they had e…

Nvidia and Intel are in very different markets and their product ranges barely overlap. And well Nvidia is almost a monopoly at this point so they have barely any incentives to con…

> Korean film/TV/music within 2 decades. True. But it’s still rather limited and almost nobody is learning Korean just because of that. e.g. in the 60s French cinema was pretty pop…
