Simple, they invade and TSMC blows up their factories. Or, the invasion is successful and they control the factories. I didn't say it was likely, but one of these two outcomes is possible.
If China has proven one thing, they can just rebuild the factories, sure it will be 5-8 years of depression but afterwards they will control a dominate player.

What kind of thing ? Shortages ?
We're already in a shortage (of RAM). Price increases should be a motivator to increase production. This is the system working.
Something one could say about a high fever being a sign of the immune system working. There are obvious temporary and permanent risks to how the system works, and there are limits beyond which everything simply breaks down. It's best not to have a fever at all.

I bought two LCD models before the OLED came out and have constantly bounced between buyer's remorse (I only use one of them) and feeling okay about this decision. Currently, I'm feeling like it was a pretty wise move.
One pro of the LCDs is that I'm moderately sure they don't flicker (PWM) as (bad) as the OLED ones would. Source: 99% of oleds cause terrible eye strain. Flicker affects people even when they don't realise it (studied for office workers during the CFL era iirc.)
But in general you're correct. When given a choice, I'll generally buy IPS when I can.
Micron up 3% today, 76% last month, 292% last six months, 863% in the past year.
I bought Micron in mid-March when it dipped. I looked at SK Hynix last week with thoughts to buy, but it had gone up so much in the past month I figured too late. Nope, up 9% today.

AI agents that can solve frontier math problems, something that few years ago was decades away.
Well, that's surely worth sacrificing people's livelihood for.
I can't wait for China to start shipping hardware. I will vote with my wallet and have a chinese GPU, RAM and device. Hell, I would be using a Xiaomi phone right this second if this government didn't block it.

There's no way of knowing this - I see articles fairly often on HN of mathematicians (sometimes grad students or younger) solving problems where progress previously had stalled.

The end of owned hardware. In the glorious future, you will rent your hardware and you will like it.

Thank god they can do it now! I'm willing to add thousands more to my bills, I'm sure AGI is around the corner and will make life so much easier.
