Even a non-IoT electronic device still runs on many different chips.

Tech companies are terrified of becoming commodities, even though a good chunk of them basically are at this point.

Intel would probably be in a better spot if they'd just leaned into that rather than try to regain the market dominance they once had.

The vast, vast majority of chips produced are "old generation" chips used for relatively mundane purposes. The high-tech stuff you see in the news is a minority (though it's pricey enough that it doesn't look that way in company earnings reports).

Think power supplies, middle-of-the-road CPUs, ASICs for common I/O like USB and ethernet, timing devices, and wireless communication modules.

The reason it doesn't work is that 1 is a scalar while i is a vector (with magnitude 1). The Pythagoras theorem works with scalars, not vectors, so you'd get 1^2 +1^2 = 2.

Fitness isn't something you just achieve and it's done. You need to keep exercising to retain that level of fitness.

His real money comes from Amazon Web Services, and that's really hard to divest from, even if its customers (businesses rather than individuals) wanted to.

His whole set was also loaded into the teleprompter, so they knew what he was gonna say.

He's 54, I think he looks pretty average for that age. He looks like an old dad, because he is.

PewDiePie controversy is like almost a decade old at this point.

Yeah, I think the far easier explanation is "people around the world depict their religious figures as looking like themselves".
