Can we get this law applied to scalpers of GPU's? This crap is insane.
And then there is that one transaction that Satoshi did with Hal with an IP address in Southern California.
I agree with all of this
I agree that the marketing is somewhat deceptive but...whatever the other coding camps were not as good. I tried 4 different ones. WhiteHatJr was simply the best coding camp that I have come across.
As far as the phone call spams...After I told them to stop, they stopped and they have not contacted me at all unless I contact them.
YMMV
I think that this is the biggest difference between AMD and Intel and, for that matter, one of the reasons that corporate boards should look towards longer term horizons than short term growth.
Whereas Intel has been focused on immediate ROI with their monopoly positions - shrink die, increase yields with the same performance for years...AMD was focused on producing something innovative and new. This is something that can take as long as a decade to deliver upon. Most boards would choke and sputter at such a concept but this is what true innovation, in some cases, requires. Innovation can't always occur within a single quarter. So many boards are so laser focused on quarterlies that they become innovation immune.
For those reasons, I would argue that only companies that have a focus on a horizon longer than a year will end up ultimately successful.
I'm really wondering how many people really take the time to break down their PC, rip the cooler and processor and install a new cooler and processor?
I get it that AMD is taking a lot of these precautions due to these architecture changes that they introduced and it seems like they're willing to do the right thing for board owners but why is this such a huge deal to warrant all this bickering?
Are there really hundreds of thousands of people that will yank a processor, throw it away and install a new processor on their board?
Remember when the government sued Zimmerman over arms trafficking? Good times...
Considering that this is precedent
Here's a theory. A virus-infused bat escapes from the lab and is sold at the market.
I can see it now
This actually reminds me of another famous statement by another famous company
The one day you'd sell your soul for something, souls are a glut.
