In a way, the reddit gang is actually saving GameStop.

For all the faults GameStop is, being massively unprofitable or deeply in doubt is not one of them. There is no reason for its stock price to be as low as $3 . The only reason why the price is so low, is the short seller short-selling _!40%_ of the existing float.

In another words, the short sellers are trying to kill GameStop the company, both by destroying others' confidence in the company, and by denying GameStop access to capitals (to re-vitalize). Eventually GameStop will enter an unescapable death spiral and close up shop, laying off all its workers.

By pushing up the price and getting rid of the short sellers, the reddit gang allows GameStop to (eventually) find its true valuation and re-capitalize the company. This should be a good thing for the market, and for the society.

Most of automotive-grade semiconductors are not made in Taiwan (by TSMC or UMC). Automotive chips don't need the latest fab processes.

>The major automotive semiconductor manufacturers include Renesas Electronics Corp. (Japan), Infineon Technologies AG (Germany), STMicroelectronics N.V. (Switzerland), and NXP Semiconductors N.V (Netherlands) among others.

All these companies have their own fabs.

Now instead of Oracle paying the lawyers, it's the taxpayers that will do so.

I had a Sony XM4 (released in Oct 2020) and am now wearing a Bose Q700.

Get the XM4, everything about it (save for fit) is better. Bluetooth compatibility, sound quality, range, battery, active noise cancellation (the main reason for me), price, etc.

The problem with the paint is not fixable short of a completely new paint shop at Tesla's Fremont factory. Once a paint shop is dirty, it is gone and nothing to save it.

A new paint shop costs about half a billion dollars. One can understand (but might not accept) why Tesla might balk at investing that much money into a cosmetic improvement, especially one that is making most of their revenue right now.

Tesla is reportedly building a new paint shop in Fremont, so hopefully at least _some_ cars out of that factory will have acceptable paint, eventually. The Tesla cars out of the Shanghai factory doesn't have paint defects, after all.

The management at one anime production company that provides anime to Netflix commented: "If the anime is a hit, it's a win for Netflix. But if it's a loss, it's our (the production company's) win." The reason for this is because under Netflix's licensing deals, the streaming rights are bought outright, so that the production company does not receive royalties no matter how many views the anime gets.

Another issue, according to the management of an advertising firm, is that Netflix does not reveal viewership numbers at all to their partners. This makes it difficult to negotiate for a higher payment for the next streaming deal. A leader at one of the companies that participated in a well-known anime program is quoted as saying: "At this rate, we might become a subcontracting company to Netflix."

Netflix also deals primarily with streaming deals, meaning that there are many cases where the production company has difficulty selling off the rights to merchandise, games, home video, and other forms of media. This is a problem for an industry that relies heavily on media mix franchises as supplementary forms of revenue.

I've heard the same tale before.

Nokia and RIM used to be the kings of the (smart)phone world, but they become complacent and others caught up. The old guard couldn't catch up, and so the fat-trimming starts: "We will outsource the highest end production and design. Don't worry we will still make the mid and low end devices in-house." 5 years down the road, everyone else also caught up and now no one wants to buy the in-house products anymore. So the entire manufacturing division gets laid off and what's remain of production is outsourced to the lowest bidder.

So I re-read the article, and here is the part he journalist was referring to-

Okay maybe the journalist meant that the researcher won't wait 60/120 days disclosure, which is still a far cry from not reporting bugs at all.

there's no fix available for this issue because the researcher has decided to stop reporting bugs to Microsoft after they've ignored many of his previous reports.

I don't see the author saying this anywhere in Caballero's article. Maybe the reporter at the news site (and the submitter) should have read the article first.

For what it is worth, Caballero is a respected browser security researcher. I don't think he would do something like this.
