    It is almost like non technical people who can not follow technical advice are making all the decisions.

      I have managers at my work having meetings on how they are going to rollout win11 and intune. They want to tell the technical people how it’s going to work.

      nah it’s not that simple. it’s mostly about cost. chip manufacturing is hella expensive and developing new chip manufacturing techniques is even more expensive. it’s cheaper to do it all in one place in taiwan instead of every country opening its own chip manufacturers. it’s only now due to security considerations that this is changing, but it takes 10 years to build a chip manufacturing site somewhere.

        Germany is leading in optical computing. Simply why should the EU now invest in a soon to be obsolete technology?

          hah, calling silicon-based computing “soon to be obsolete” is surely something ;-)

          it’s like calling solar energy a “soon to be obsolete” technology because surely we’ll invent fusion power / small modular reactors in a few years. how many SMRs have been deployed so far?

          where can i buy these optical computers today?
