"Talent" could also be an affinity for practicing that skill. I don't think I'm exceptional at programming, but I got good at it because I enjoyed it and that was enough to drive me to develop that skill. There are other skills I didn't develop as much because I didn't feel as driven to pursue them.

People thinking that American politics needs to dominate every single place of conversation is mildly infuriating at least.

I'm excited to see more competition! I also like how RISC-V is based on open source work which reduces startup costs and opens up greater collaboration. We've all benefited greatly from open source software, so it would be nice to see more of that on the hardware side as well. I'll be shocked if the chip actually competes on performance, though it may be more of a cost-for-performance deal like ARM. Speaking of which, I wonder how it'll compare with ARM server processors as well.

This isn't extensive, but when looking up products on amazon through camelcamelcamel that existed in 2023 and now, the trend matches up:

SSDs were even cheaper until memory manufacturers decided it was getting too cheap: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ssds/ssd-prices-predicted-to-skyrocket-throughout-2024

They predicted prices would go higher and, through the magic of intentionally constricting supply, it happened. Prices still have not dropped back down to where they were in 2023.

Just wait until they come out with DDR4 SAM.

It'd be a decent deal now, but this launches in 2027, by which point this would be underwhelming.

It's not mutually exclusive. Laws are wielded as weapons all the time.

Stick to SEARCH, not making shit up (euphemistically called "hallucinating").

This only makes me want to pirate Nintendo games.
