I mostly agree, but if you go further back in the supply chain there are a number of common inputs/tools. For example, as 2025 the new LPDDR lines are using EUV systems, which means for new fab production both DRAM and logic producers are competing for machines from ASML. It doesn't change your point that these lines are different and the immediate price spike is not about them competing for capacity in the same faci…

Shared skilled labor is another thing to consider.

That's only going to change on similar timescales to the fab capacity, which is to say multiple years.

If you don't see people talking about the "end of personal vehicles", it could just be that you haven't looked very hard. It's intuitively obvious to a lot of people that the era of personal, wholly owned transportation is waning. A lot of people seem to miss the second clause of that old "you'll own nothing" phase, the part where most people are happy about it! When vehicles drive themselves, and there's a large eno…

Because renting will likely never be cheaper. Maybe the occasional city dweller may see a profit, but those of us who spend hours in our cars each day will not.

Extremely dense QLC chips. Still it's 2700-3000MByte, ie ~3GByte/second. What should worry way more is DWPD which is abysmal... on the first glance. But if you punch it in the calc it still would take ages to wear it out. SSD #1 SSD #2 SSD #3 Capacity (GB) 245000 245000 245000 Warranty (yr.) 3 3 3 DWPD 0.3 1 0.075 TBW (TB) 80482 268275 20121 TBW (PB) 80.483 268.275 20.121 PBW 80.483 268.275 20.121 GB/day 73500 245000…

DWPD was the boogey man 10 years ago. everybody worried about it. now, nobody cares. I have over 500 NVMe drives in our deployment and the drive deaths are not due to wear.

This is high quality anecdata. What is the root cause of most of your drive deaths?
