Why is this company associated with jews?
>>58150931
one of the none-engineers that was in on the funding and later ran the company, andy grove, was a jew
other engineers of the company had jewish roots. Frohman (EPROM guy) made sure Intlel would build facilities in tel-aviv to support the zionist cause once he was vice pres. and so on
but I guess most associate it with jews because of how they're segmenting their products and introduce artificial differences in them, all for the maximum squeezing of customers. not to mention the shit they do to fuck over competition (which also means fucking over end-users)

1-2% IPC per new architecture
>yet still charges $300 for 4c8t in 2017

Dam dude, your writing is pretty concise. It would have taken me like 10 long paragraphs to explain what you did.
Can intel even fail?
I can see apple tanking, google even, kikebook not so much.
Intel stocks should be pretty safe and yield good return.
Dont drop the price on older gens and they pull them out of the shelves

Thats because they had no competition for a long time.
Now AMD Zen might shake it up on higher end. ARM devices might shake it up on lower end.

well thank you, I guess
and I said >was a jew
cause I assumed he is gone by now since he got cancer atleast a decade ago, but maybe he's still around

Intel got a bit too confident and invested tons into expansion of facilities and an underwhelming attempt into the mobile market.
They've been making some pretty big layoffs in the past year or two to cut unnecessary costs.
But they still hold enterprise markets more or less by the balls, since amd have had literally nothing to compete.
Zen could change things in a big way in that market, assuming it really is scalable up to 32c/64t and intel hasn't ancored everyone into decades long contracts. All the performance/price superiority in the world can't change things if the big players can't buy your shit.
Even if that's not the case, we've been seeing shifts towards gpu-centric compute. Right now these are pretty specialized applications such as google deep dream machine learning and self driving cars, but intel is severely lacking in the gpu department.
It's so exciting. There hasn't been this kind of shift in the tech sector in decades. Watching everything unfold will be akin to the 80's, when tech companies could rise from the ether to become the biggest trading company of the year only to fade back into nothingness a short time later when an unexpected shift to a different technology or method occurs.
I don't really even care what happens or who wins, I just know it'll be fun to talk about for years to come.

They have a big R&D base in Israel. On top of that there's the stereotype that Jews are greedy, Intel is without a doubt one of the worst of worst when it comes to money grabbing ventures. They didn't used to be largest semiconductor company without a good reason.

Because Bob Noyce was the only thing keeping them from going full jew, and he's been dead for 26 years now. AND has been slouching towards Jerusalem ever since his death.
