The medical system in the US is an embarrassment of epic proportions, and this (satire) video about trying to get pricing for surgery was so accurate it stressed me out. If your country is considering privatizing some services just look to the US as a giant warning sign.
Both parties have held the debt ceiling hostage as a political tool. For example, in 2011, the Republicans did it. But in 2013, the Republicans did it. On the other hand, this year it is the Republicans who are doing it.

This egg shortage is no joke.

The x86 vendors can take a server SoC and make a derivative HEDT chip, but 🍎 doesn’t have that option.

So are they going to design/verify/build all that logic for one (low volume) product line? Are they able to get by without a directory?

I’ve been genuinely curious what 🍎 planned to do for a Mac Pro/HEDT SoC ever since they announced the switch away from x86.

High core count machines need cache coherency too, and the best way is with a directory. (Maybe they can avoid building a directory with 24 CPU cores if they implement some hierarchy.)
