Of course not. It just seems that they might actually be the most transparent segment of this entire system which makes more visible. And well… from the society’s perspective high/very-high prices for new drugs for a decade or so (20 y

Would you not expect companies which actually want to make to cores to have an advantage? And the companies that don’t want to make it their core business but can afford enough resources (e.g. Google, Apple, Amazon) would just use them to l

Why (besides religious reasons)? I don’t see how can high-end/competitive RISC-V cores could be fully open/free and without that how is it better than ARM.

Possibly, but historically it high end semiconductors seem to turn into a winner takes all market more often than not. If that’s the case it’s probably preferable to have someone like ARM at the top than Intel or Nvidia.

Out of all places do you think Russia is the one which needs more land? Maybe because “the West” doesn’t want to “handle” North Korea (whatever that means)? I’m sorry but I really don’t understand what are you trying to say..

Problem is that without those old buildings there are no real practical reasons to live in Venice or build anything on top.

a ‘masterpiece’ is a very subjective term. Most are viewed as such not because of some objectively measurable quality but because of their uniqueness/originality (at the time) and context. In that regard it’s hard to imagine AI could a

IMHO ARM is one of the best things that ever happened in the computer industry. > non-toxic IP cores with enough performance from RISC-V Why would anyone also their designs to be used for free or for cheaper than ARM does?

That’s more of a stereotype which is really only accurate in some cities and even there usually only in the center areas/old town. 50-70%+ of all Europeans who live in urban areas commute by car* https://ec.europa.eu/eu

Comparing anything but the total cost for employer (salary + taxes they pay + benefits) doesn’t make that much sense.

Are they, though? The legal minimum in most EU states is just 20 work days which isn’t even a full month.

Just demand/supply I guess. Semi-conductor companies need just a few (even if extremely talented) engineers compared to software. The industry is also very concentrated and not growing that so not that much competition for employees.

They might be putting themselves in a similar position as Intel though (maybe worse since I don’t recall Intel ever being as greedy..) if their competitors eventually catch up. Unlike in gaming in the data center initial cost + performance

Nvidia and Intel are in very different markets and their product ranges barely overlap. And well Nvidia is almost a monopoly at this point so they have barely any incentives to continue innovating as opposed trying to extract as much money

> Korean film/TV/music within 2 decades. True. But it’s still rather limited and almost nobody is learning Korean just because of that. e.g. in the 60s French cinema was pretty popular for some time in the US in a similar way.
