Once you consider headcount (by Ian) and R&D spending (by me) of major semiconductor and/microelectronics companies, you will always end up with something like this.

It looks like @Intel has fewer FTEs (full time employees) than TSMC for the first time ever.
Caveat: Waiting on $TSM's annual report for their latest 2025 EoY number. But I expect it to be higher YoY.
PCIe 6.0 SSDs for PCs won't arrive until 2030 — costs and complexity mean PCIe 5.0 SSDs are here to stay for some time

This is what Hugo Boss at Istanbul Airport sold me after saying, ‘Let me get you a new one,’ just before packing it — so I wouldn’t notice.
If you click on ‘Return & Replace’ on its website, it says ‘Page not found.’
What a service, don’t you think, @HUGOBOSS#BeYourOwnBOSS
In a sad turn of events, after 27 years online, AnandTech, one of the world's first PC enthusiast hardware websites that defined the standard for hardware reviews, is closing its doors.
I worked at AnandTech for eight years, and without any doubt, I've enjoyed every single moment. I met some great people and learned a lot there, so the closure is very personal for me.
Thank you, @anandshimpi , for founding this great website. Thank you, @RyanSmithAT , for hiring me. Thank you, @IanCutress , for being a great colleague, mentor, and friend. Thank you, @gavbon86 , @ganeshts, @andreif7, Brett, @MattHumrick and all the great people I had the pleasure to work with at AnandTech.

@JoeSpeeds@AmpereComputing@JoeSpeeds It certainly is.
Now the picture says it runs RTX 4000 and RTX 3000 graphics cards. But the spec sheet (https://t.co/IrgPN2zjCY) shows quite a mysterious GPU with 28,416 cores. Something does not add up :)

Thanks for pointing out, we had actually updated the story since mentioning single-core clocks was a way far shot.
