I think this was always the much safer bet to make; the visible optimism of recent years in Intel's Foundry's staff doesn't translate to a competitive market position. Not in this industry.

Just a remark, but inflation indicators IMO should not be used so directly (quantitatively) as they are determined by comparing increases for more basic goods and services, and not luxury goods or high end electronics

Most of what you say is covered by the cost quality equation ( currency is not the only cost to be accounted ) . And there is innertia too to the market, obviously. And indeed imperfections

Yeah I don't buy the zen 5 bit

I'm not buying the bad for the championship bit too much, it always looked like such a big stretch to me for Norris to ever recover that 50 ish point deflicit. Of course Norris should aim for that and should fight while there's still the smallest of chances . It's his job. But for everyone...

I've adressed what you said (before and now), to me you arre not approaching a point or anything concrete despite my prompts and appeal to discuss logicaly. Anyway, this is wildly off topic so, whatever

You are shifting your position. You were first claiming they are new and unproven hence they would need a "first" success story. Now they are the same reactors as in the 60s (which i agree to , btw) ? So which is it? Anyway, the fact that we were able to build reactors in the 60s kinda proves...

How can we not? It's basically the same old tech in state of the art reactors, in a smaller "form factor". Some engineering challenges with that but all in all nothing too dificult nor nothing particularly exciting

Oh as far as i've been seeing discussed online , there seem to be nothing at all especially challenging with SMRs. Their main issue is about bringing the costs down - SMRs still need to comply to all of the ( too exagerated, btw ) safety regulations . So in most practical cases SMRs cost more...

I think in this case mentioning names here would make the association possible between (user) <name> and DeletedMember<id> (and thus their posts). I do think whoever makes a request here would likely like to avoid that. Probably it would be fine to mention names , if the association with...

Enabling SMT or not is also a tradeoff in a given arhitectural context ; on wider cores (more or more complex execution units) it makes more sense compared to narrow ones. Then good out of order capabilties also coud reduce the benefits for SMT. And then probably decoder throghput factors in as...

But this is a tautology, no evidence is needed, this is how markets works. Supliers are chosen based on some cost - quality equation, nothing else, and this is how it should be.

That's not how it goes, the burden of proof is on the other side. And not with the guily until proven inocent framing, illustrated above, for sure. Otherwised you don't seem to have touched my point, and only went on about generic negative opinionion about Elon instead. ____ Anyway I guess...

I guess it could be a fear of missing out of sorts. Of feeling forced to upgrade more frequently just to stay updated with the technologies. Not saying this is justified or un-justified, just feels like someone could plausibly be thinking

Joe Saward thought it was the most likely move for a few months already
