My (incomplete) understanding is that current lithography relies heavily on multipatterning, which takes a long time. With EUV, you can have very small features with fewer lithography steps which improves factory throughput.
That's more of an economic benefit for chip manufacturers than a tangible benefit for a user of the end product, but it means being able to buy cheaper chips with more gates (in addition to any power or performance improvements that can still be had these days).
There will surely be people who pay a lot more tax than they receive in UBI. The key thing is not to build an elaborate gameable system to decide who should be eligible for UBI and what it may be used for.
The story mentioned intel and Qualcomm but quite possibly Broadcom was/is lobbying hard behind the scenes. They have a long history with both ZTE and Huawei and a lot to lose from the blacklisting. Luckily they weren’t allowed to purchase Qualcomm when they tried
Your recent comments to HN have nearly all been using the site for ideological battle. We don't allow that, regardless of which ideology you're fighting for or against, because it destroys the intellectual curiosity HN exists for. Would you please stop now?
I took another look at your account history and got quite a jolt. You've been breaking the site guidelines flagrantly and frequently, including with nasty personal attacks.
Since it's clear you don't want to use HN as intended, we've banned the account. If that changes at some point, you're welcome to email [email protected] and give us reason to believe that you'll follow the rules in the future.
Not sure about the tax dodge, but more about the Dad loaning him $20K and getting something from the investment. I think a lot of people just do "DBA's" and think "I'll just cash that as an alias DBA..." -- there's implications to that. But if the money is not a lot, under $10K, it's not worth worrying about
Well when your parents have you signing papers you never read from a young age. The lack of responsibility reminds me of another trustifarian; one in the White House
I really wish you hadn't brought politics into the discussion.
But if you insist, let's review a few of Donald Trump's accomplishments:
- Won the Ellis Island Award for contributions to minority communities
- Has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
- Has written (ok, has his name as author) best selling books
- Built (and destroyed, and rebuilt) massive enterprises that employ tens of thousands
- Sawed through the Republican party establishment, then defeated the Democratic nominee in spite of massive disadvantages and polls.
- Was elected US President as the first political office sought
- Has presided over a booming economy that brings record low unemployment to African-Americans and Hispanics, accompanied by rising wages and a roaring stock market
It is certainly true that Donald Trump was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and many huge advantages. The same is true of many other politicians of both parties, but few (are there truly any?) can match the breadth and depth of accomplishments listed above.
You can dislike Donald Trump, and/or his politics as much as you want. But you can't deny he has accomplished a lot, even for someone born to wealth.
