That's crazy Bibi we all expected you guys to follow the ceasefires you post fabricated negotiations progress about to try to paint Hamas as desperate and the Zionists as perpetually on the verge of total victory
How many months have they been "establishing control" then reestablishing it in the same places? Their GDP fell 20%
Man shut the fuck up. Just because the USA was able to pretend we thought people who looked like that were white to steal physicists from Iran for a little bit, doesn't mean he is white passing. Also notice the guy's hairline is clearly that of a dad, why would you card him. Fuck off idiot
Coding, like writing scientific papers, or novels, is only about randomly generating strings, silly human.
I suppose I'd be the most interested in what people have to say. Maybe you'd get closure on unexpected things.
There's a good reason Discord stopped letting moderators hang on to people's deleted pictures actually LOL
Not that you should ever under any circumstances "hand it to" Discord
Expat with no friends thinks he is a genius and figured out life, news at 11.
sure, they're labor aristocracy jobs bc they're at the tip top of the global supply chain, but most people do not partake in that at all, or management etc, or legal/medical/whatever other high end shit, and 50% of the US is in crappy service work like mcdonalds literally.
no matter what industry you work in you can only be pessimistic here lmao unless you're like in finance or useless c suite shit
i'm not crying for the TSMC foundry or trying to work there. i hope the NATO+ intelligence services edge from high end chip production being under our control is unseated, it would be good for all of us
what's going on with TSMC is indicative of wider issues with all kinds of US industries I'm in solar and frankly I plan to gtfo in the long term to a more interesting area of development. I don't expect it to make my life easier per se but there are a lot of reasons.
Oh also insurance prices and shit like that here are a nightmare. Legal is too obviously. That's why Nike could never just move all their production here even thought it would be trivial to teach people to make shoes. The convoluted global supply chain is the whole point
Amazon is fabless for their chip design unit, there all little mini design units for shit like datacenters.
It's hilarious you're saying that because Intel labelled itself an investor in USA foundry projects you think they are exempt from this. Okay man, go work at the plants in Ohio and Arizona. Oh wait, they don't fucking exist bruh
None of those companies even make a blip on global chip production though. Are they for research or something? Why should I give a shit about a tiny technically existing fraction of production that will never expand?
Go look at where there has been actual foundry production for decades. None of the companies you mentioned even exist in foundry. Who cares if they have A facility or two? That's just part of figuring out what they're going to order from TSMC.
You are the one moving the goalposts with your boasts about how these companies make up LITERALLY an INFINITESIMAL portion of global chip production. Even if you cut out Samsung and TSMC they wouldn't be global players.
No, we can't just bring all production home lol. We've been saying we will for years. Where is the foundry in Ohio dude? Where is the Arizona foundry that's supposed to bolster TSMC production?
Lol yeah sure go ask ASML how their business is doing rn in light of the US chip war sanctions. European manufacturing is in as dire a state as the US now due to financialization and now the skyrocketing energy costs.
People said this about our military production too. "Oh, Russia messed up now, we're going to get serious and amp up our military production." 🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗🗓️🗓️🗓️🗓️ (time loudly passing and nothing happening)
How many times is it going to take for people to learn it gets transmuted directly into stock buybacks lmao? We don't have the electrical grid to build up our manufacturing base in the modern world yet. The US is a giant casino for the elite of our empire full of slums.
Yeah the casino bit is the most important part for sure. In light of how financialized everything is, huge costs, massively inflated financial asset & real estate prices etc, labor costs, it's more likely for Detroit to spring back into being an industrial hub.
We focus all of our political energy on monopolizing the top of the value chain TSMC is a part of and we can't replace it with our own production bc it's so crucial for cutting costs down. They can't even expand the production for lower end chips (ROI isn't there) now so Russia and China are gonna scoop up orders from expansion in the many industries that use them (low end chips were like 20% of TSMC's revenue recently, iirc). Which will help them develop their higher end foundries which they definitely can make I mean Rosatom produces super high quality Xray mirrors and the Chinese govt won't balk at industrial investment or high tech training programs.
ASML's whole position in this convoluted supply chain means they only make those shipping container sized thingies with the rube goldberg machine of mirrors hooked up to a gallium plasma light thingy, and that ultimately limits the minimum nanometer size of the circuits made in the fabrication units they ship out. If I'm getting that right 🤪. This is really futuristic stuff I'm talking about now but the next-next gen fabrication units beyond Russia and China catching up could even be hooked up to a particle accelerator. That's pretty hard to export in the same way.
I just don't see how we can politically or financially solve these problems in the US or EU lol. We're kind of caught by the balls as workers no?
Except what NVIDIA is doing can be done by numerous other chip design firms, TSMC cannot be replaced.
You are quite literally Canadian. Once you finish cheering on the mass death of Ukrainians (to make up for a massive shortfall of artillery & ammo production the US and Ukrainians have both admitted exists across all of Europe, the US, and more), reality will catch up to you. You'll get depressed about climate change and the Russian Threat and ge euthanasia from your government. Nobody will miss you because you spent all your time pretending to be winning a war online instead of living your life.
You literally have a bar in your country with Stepan Bandera and all kinds of Nazi paraphernalia on the walls that people have been flocking to for Instagram posts. You are an international embarrassment. You are several oil and mining companies in a trench coat masquerading as a sovereign state.
You could at least keep up with the inconsistencies between Washington DC and Kiev's narratives lol. It's simply a statement of fact that not even the Pentagon or CIA can believe Ukrainian casualty claims.
That is a funny reply to someone using insults more befitting of a kindergarten teacher than forum users arguing about a war. I am not even swearing at you, kiddo.
Do you need me to spoon feed you links from the New York Times talking about how they lost 850+ Ukrainian troops in Avdeevka?
"WOW HOLY COW ARE YOU REALLY DOUBTING WESTERN PROPAGANDA???"
Yes. I talk to Ukrainians, not people on Twitter pretending to be dogs.
What are you talking about you delusional crybaby? The Ukrainian war effort is collapsing. Look at The Hill! Look at TIME, doofus!
How do you think you lost a war while killing 10 Russians for every Ukrainian?
By lying! It's that simple!
Nvidia is such a stupid fucking company. It's just slapping different designs onto TSMC chips. All our "chip companies" are like this. In the long run they are all going to get smoked. I won't tell you by whom. You shouldn't need a reminder.
