As in, Chrome decoupled from Google should have 90% of revenue coming from Google/Alphabet, as Mozilla does?

Because if you do, they'll stop hiring you - that only goes one way.

Depends how long the hops are, a whole lot of less-than-2-years, sure. But if you're moving every 3 years no one blinks

A subtle detail from the article is that address prices peaked in 2021 at $60 and has steadily decreased to $35. Where does it go from here? Is this a proxy for the tech correction?

peoplearepeople commented on Nvidia’s AI supremacy is only temporary   petewarden.com/2023/09/10... · Posted by u/sebg

If anything, this post suggests Nvidia has a long supremacy ahead. In particular, the author lays out what is likely to be a durable network in favor of Nvidia:

- best in breed software

- industry standard used and preferred by most practitioners

- better (faster) hardware

Notably, this is a similar combination to that which led Wintel to be a durable duopoly for decades, with the only likely end the mass migration to other modes of compute.

Regarding the "what will change" category, 2 of the bullet points essentially argue that the personnel he cites as being part of the lock-in will decide to no longer bias for Nvidia, primarily for cost reasons. A third point similarly leans on cost reasons.

Nowhere in the analysis does the author account for the historical fact that typically the market leader is best positioned to also be the low-cost leader if strategically desired. It is unlikely that a public company like Intel or AMD or (soon) Arm would enter the market explicitly to race to zero margins. (See also: the smartphone market.)

Nvidia also could follow the old Intel strategy and sell its high-end tech for training and its older (previously) high-end tech for inference, allowing customers to use a unified stack across training & inference at different price points. Training customers pay for R&D & profit margin; lower-price inference customers provide a strategic moat.

If TSMC starts having trouble with new process nodes, then I think Intel could quickly capitalize

Isn't it the case that f9h's lift capacity has increased over the years due to engine improvements and stage lengthening..? Iirc fairing size is still a major limiting factor.

They have a bigger fairing in dev for the military, and the gateway launch

Do we have to wait? Falcon Heavy already has ~75% of SLS Block 1's payload capacity (to LEO). For the $11.2 Billion that's earmarked for the next 4 years of SLS, you could buy 112 Falcon Heavy launces--one every ~17 days for four years. In contrast, the wiki lists a single planned flight for SLS during that period.

Mass to LEO isn't the name of the game for SLS though, it's mass to LLO.

(though yes you could fix that with a small kick stage)
