Used to work at Intel (almost 14 years). Is still a great company but it had problems.

Long story short, it:
-Has always had fantastic engineers
-In *most* cases they had great leadership at the top

…but they always had this hardened crust of middle management that blocked any good ideas from proceeding. They threw away several ideas that would go on to power other companies because they couldn’t think outside their current business model.

I have a presentation back in the early 2000’s about how Arm chips were going to disrupt their business model. The crust laughed at it. Also later told them that Apple was going to ditch them and make their own chips. They laughed at that, too.

I will say this in the context of this thread:

You libs complaining about this? What did you think the CHIPS act was going to do?
