Seems like even if they went with TSMC, they are a little bit late to the party. AMD has been optimizing against TSMC's nodes for years.

AMD is also an organization that has been operating with the 3rd party foundry model for 10+ years. How long would it take for Intel to undergo an org-chart/culture transition into a similar model? I have to believe this would be a fairly disruptive time for such a large organization.

Not saying Intel can't pull it off, but it seems like their strategy will have to exist on a >5 year timeline at this point.
Looks like nobody else wants to admit that.
People say this but I don't really see the alternative. I can't imagine going to a coffee shop to loiter every day. The reality is I'm gonna be at home in my office, and that is tiring.

This is a 2000s view of Intel that is not accurate in 2020. Look at the numbers.

- 7% growth for consumer (the “Intel PCs” you mention)

- 43% growth for data centers

- 70%+ growth in nonvolatile storage (SSDs)... much of which goes into high end servers in data centers

Will there be more data centers And cloud offerings in 3 years, or less? Many More!

Will there be more or less PC sales in 3 years. For Intel it’s less or the same (Apple is 8-10% of the market that is disappearing and PC growth is flat to slightly up. So 3 years out it will be roughly the same)

Also keep in mind the margin on Xeons vs The laptop chips
That go in a $599 plastic Dell.

Intel as a “PC” company is dying. Intel as a data center provider (SSDs and heavy processors) is ascendant
Amazon is the only existential threat for Google Search, so Google doesn't exactly need to make money from Shopping as long as it can keep Amazon in check.
If I may ask, how far do you live from your office? Is your home comfortable and does it meet your needs? Is your office a pleasant and productive space? I know many people who do grueling 2-hour, one-way commutes so they can afford a modest-size home and half-decent schools for their kids. Consider that many people might not be in your position.
You make the distinction between actual socialism and socialization of certain institutions, but then immediately claim democrats are trying to push socialist agendas which leads me to believe you're being disingenuous or you don't know what "actual socialism" is, which I assure you is not nearly as mainstream as you'd like to think.
I wish we would discipline ourselves to avoid ruining that one planet before we get delusions of grandeur and the urge to wreck another one.

All these talks about “multi-planetary species” are bunk in the long term, anyway. We will probably have observation outposts scattered across the solar system, but that’ll be about it for quite a long time.
The only realistically reachable planet in the foreseeable future is Mars. We could fix our issues with Earth for a fraction of what it would take to make it inhabitable.

We’ll send our billionaire pioneers to the moon alright. With a scientific base as a side effect. It still won’t improve anything that’s wrong with Homo Sapiens.
I highly doubt it will get better as they grow. I think it will get worst actually as it does with most larger organizations.

Even with an enterprise support contract the idea of calling is completely discouraged to the point it's hidden behind menus of finding a customized code to call support. Their e-mail support is a pain also because there are different techs responding with different ideas to solve a question. They don't have chat support which is annoying as well in this day and age. If you want things done, their account management team gets it done fast when on boarding.

Although the product is really good and has some limitations which are annoying but if you can deal without support this is a great product. Also their post postmortems are amazing.
That's different from caring for elderly family members. Parents with young families (maybe not those with newborns) can and do take vacations and travel. They also often have paid help even in their non-work hours e.g. babysitters or nannies.

Intel's 10% stock drop is all about losing investor confidence. They've been given a pass for delaying 10nm for years in part because there was no competition and assurances that it was a one-off thing and they have learned their lesson. This delay threatens that narrative and instead suggest that Intel hasn't learned from their 10nm debacle.
The companies offering these services are also so few and far between it's ridiculous to even mention it
They say in the article that they used controlled digital lending, where they only circulate the EXACT number of copies they (and partner libraries) physically own and are not currently lent.
You act like developers have a choice. Companies go where the money is and developers do what companies tell them. The supremacy of the indie developer died a decade ago.

There are very few apps that could be web only apps that are making money via in app purchases. Most of the money being made in the App Store are pay to win games. Most of the subscriptions apps that use to allow in app purchases are already forcing users to pay outside of the App Store - including Netflix and Spotify.
Right but we're operating in the reality of the American court system. Idealistically I agree with you, but it's not pragmatic — the law is very obviously in the publisher's favor (they whimmed it to their side years ago).

At the end of the day I think this will be a battle over whether or not the Internet Archive can continue to exist... and it's incredibly important for them to live to fight another day.
Isn’t that the point though? If the worker has to move in order to get more space, the worker is bearing the costs (literal and opportunity).
US employers are very reluctant to hire remote devs from Europe imo. As soon as they hear you are from Europe the dialog is over.

At the end of the day there's obviously nothing other than remotely storing your keys that will keep your data opaque. Even supposing that the IAM team doesn't have a way to forge a valid credential if they need to, the confirm/deny response of their service to authorization checks is the source-of-truth for whether a credential is valid, and they could update their service endpoint to affirm bad credentials if they wanted to. Presumably for law enforcement purposes they have a way to forge a credential that doesn't show up in audit logs.
I feel the same. For the last 3 hours of the day I just state at my screen in zombie mode. With wfh when I start to feel braindead I just lay in bed for 15 minutes and when I come back I feel refreshed for the rest of the day. With no pressure to look like you are constantly working you can do what works best since no one can see more than your output at the end of the week.
How is the US style of center-liberalism extreme, as compared to an ideology that demands total control over the economy and its citizens? Or do you think concepts such as "rule of law" are extremist?

If there really is not further delay, then Intel will be fine. But their 10nm was initially only delayed by 12 months too. And then another 12 months. And another. Intel have big problems if they have those same delays again.
Tim Cook and co have got to be cracking open a nice whiskey. I'd call their move prescient, but then I'm only mildly surprised intel is now on track to miss yet another target.

How long has it been since they promised a 7nm CPU?

Does anyone have a good podcast, blogpost, book, article, or other source to do an in depth analysis of where, exactly, intel just lost the plot?
Some of it is marketing BS, but it's hard to argue that AMD isn't benefitting hugely from TSMC's 7nm process. Likewise, Apple knows that they can get 5nm parts from TSMC this year for their phones and laptops and they know the kind of performance advantage they're going to be getting out of them.

Intel has stumbled a lot here and it's showing.

>if it makes a person worth ten million times as much worth twenty million times as much.

But that never happens. Ten million multiplied by twenty million is 200 trillion. You can't make 200 trillion dollars by taking a dollar away from a million people. Nobody has ever made 200 trillion dollars from anything, but if they did, it makes no sense to think there's some way it could be done by impoverishing a million people who have almost nothing. It sounds as illogical as the Matrix use of humans as batteries.
>The US has not tested any space to space military assets and doesn't have this functionality as far as what is currently known. (The rumor mill also currently says the US has no such functionality and requires ground take off).

Um, most recently in 2008 the USA shot down it's own dead satellite by a ASAT missile fired from a ship:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Burnt_Frost

While the story goes that the satellite was dangerous due to frozen ball of hydrazine fuel on board (as it failed soon after launch and still had full fuel load) it was also a perfect chance to test the existing ASAT capability.

Also in 2019 India tested their ASAT missile:

No Amazon retail doesn’t develop a service internally and turn it over to AWS so they can sell it to customers. AWS treats Amazon Retail as just another customer that sometimes gets access to services before they are made publicly available. They talk about this all of the time at reinvent.

I happen to share your opinion that banning abortions is not an ideal solution, and therefore I don't support it.

However, your statement "banning abortions is a wrong opinion" is itself an opinion. Yet you stated it as if it's a scientific certainty, when in fact it's an opinion you don't share. My wife and I debate it all the time, and it comes down to a prioritization difference in my mind vs her mind. I prioritize the privacy and rights of the pregnant woman over the future existence of the fetus. She views the fetus identically to one that has exited the birth canal and is now a baby. She doesn't think there is a break in the continuum.
I disagree with her entirely, but that doesn't make me right and her wrong. It just means that I put a higher priority on the woman's freedom than I do on the right of the fetus to develop into a human. It's amusing to me that when my wife and I argue about this topic, she is focused on the rights of the fetus, and I'm focused on the rights of the woman. We aren't having one argument over a woman's rights, we are having two arguments simultaneously. This is a nuanced view that the current political debate doesn't allow for. Her view was obviously influenced by walking into a hospital and watching parents pray by the side of incubators containing 26 week preemies, and then seeing activists debating whether third-trimester abortions should be banned. I certainly don't blame her for having that opinion when she has to reconcile those two ideas simultaneously. It's a lot easier to hold the opinion that you and I share when we view fetuses clinically rather than in incubators.
I think it's hard because the bullying has been done and the law is already in their favor. This isn't a grey area case of "is it legal or not" it's a case where the IA broke the already established rules. They're fighting upstream.

Despite its importance I don't think the Internet Archive is a common household name on the level of Wikipedia and I don't think any sort of boycott would have the legs (I would love to be wrong about this).
That was one of the considerations for my fiancee quitting her job in retail. We judged that her income as a commissioned salesperson at 50% of my income was not worth the potential hospital bills. Plus the potential lifetime of debilitating side-effects which would put an end to whatever lifestyle we have planned. So we went to a single income.

No one is turning a blind eye to our society's problems. I think we're all just wondering what major justice it is we need to deliver.
This is resolved by going somewhere within an hour of the office location. It’s a good idea, but not everyone wants to be forced into traveling for work.

Maybe there's real discussion going on at the board/C-suite level - which is where the power is anyways. I would not consider the stuff I see at an individual contributor level to be a discussion. If management is involved, then the 'discussion' is more like that of a parent speaking to a child and valid questions tend to be ignored or met with 'answers' that do not address the question at hand.

You only need to look around this very thread to see many indignant, condescending comments towards models by those who refuse to try to understand the value they bring to the creative process.

I realize that all the process sizes aren't all necessarily equivalent ("TSMC is on 5nm already!"), but this could really be an existential problem for Intel.

Windows already has an ARM version. Apple is about to release its own silicon. Amazon is running its own silicon on servers.

It seems like peak Intel is already behind us, but just how quickly might they fall?
Here in Oregon, the latest update was that they had fallen under the 95% benchmark for contact tracing. I don't know the details on what that 95% measures.

Also, they mentioned that while in the past, most case counts were from breakouts, that has changed. Now most case counts are "sporadic" cases, meaning no known infection source. The implication is that it's just out there in the general public now.

Oregon also currently has lousy test availability, at least as of a couple of days ago. One person I know seeking a test was basically denied - they couldn't even get scheduled. Something about too many tests being sent from Oregon to California and Arizona.

You could also probably add power/reset functionality by hacking something like this:

This is a thread where people are discussing politics, in which I am earnestly participating. Are you saying I'm not allowed to share my politics or ask questions on here? I thought we were concerned about free expression here.

If you'd like to address my questions more specifically, I would be happy to read your response. But attempting to shut down my questions because you disagree with the direction you think they're heading is exactly what I thought we were opposed to.
So call it gain and have X positive.

Even the folks in non-tech jobs who hate WFH, griping about missing look-em-in-the-eyes managerialism, or how they can’t do management-by-walking-around, acknowledge the past few months have been more productive and curiously more collaborative (right people across national offices invited to “meetings” and able to attend).

So actual productivity up, other factors important to Taylorist managers (but not to individual contributors) sharply down.
I used to work remotely and really disliked it. Not talking to coworkers and being stuck at home all day were the two big reasons. I'm right back there now due to the pandemic, and it's much the same, the evenings and weekends are somewhat more boring than before but we still manage to get out and do stuff because the weather is nice this time of year.

I think this could be different with a complete overhaul of corporate culture but I haven't seen it yet in 20 years of employment with "teleworking" being an option at least part of the time. Perhaps remote-first teams really are different, but you're still stuck at home all day, or spending time and money going to a coffee shop and maybe finding a seat+wifi, etc.

"Have you expanded beyond your cofounders?"

We haven't, although we do have other team members with Portals, I don't think it would be effective for our use case. Most of the conversations are semi-private, so we use the device like we were sharing an office more than having a meeting.

As a team, we use Slack for Chat, Zoom for Meetings and screen sharing, and Slack for one on one video chat. We use slack for quick conversations because its fast to deploy, and you can keep your hands on your keyboard (or mouse).

Oddly, we hop on Zoom all the time for screen sharing but continue to just use the Portal for AV.

"Also, how do you guys handle knowing when you can talk to the other person?"

That's have been easy. If I want to talk to Tom, I just look at him. If he's in a meeting, I can almost always tell. We keep each other muted unless we're going to talk. You can tell from the eyes, or headset, etc. pretty quickly.

For the shared office use case, in particular, it's excellent.

Any way you slice it, I'm glad to see more people in this space, as it can only lead to better things for remote workers. Good luck!

A land value tax can help quite a bit. It can both prevent landlords from capturing all / most of the value when rents rise and also help act as a cushion when rents fall.

The current property tax system that most cities use make little sense. It penalizes people for improving and updating the structures on their land. Cities should be encouraging property improvements.
