I think in many cases they are just buying routes/gates. If the airports are maxed out in gates how is the company supposed to grow? And a company that doesn’t grow is a “bad” company, or at least management doesn’t get paid as well fo

You say that as if you cannot buy a car or an airline ticket. In fact you can, because airlines fly planes and sell tickets on them, and car manufacturers make cars and sell them. It may be cute to say “X is a bank”, but an airline is not a

??? How is this supported by your article? Looking at the only perf/watt benchmark (Cinebench ST), they show: M2 Pro @ 141 points/watt Ryzen 9 7940HS @ 47 points/watt

I remember reading that ARM makes more money from embedded than they do from mobile, but I can’t find this source any more. Does anyone know anything about this? Was this true in the (recent) past but no longer true?

Just because you use some intermediate variables to calculate f(x,y) = x^2 + y^2 doesn't make it a non-pure function. At least at the level of abstraction we're talking about (the API boundary). The more significant application of

They are extraordinarily complicated pure functions, to explore the entire space would take lifetime of the universe ^^^ lifetime of the universe or some absurd quantity like that. (The operator is titration.) Further, what happens when you

Sourcing for this? This is a very under-reported story IMO, the main source we have is self-serving comments from the guy who screwed it up saying “we passed because it wasn’t going to be profitable at the projected volumes”. But I don’t se
