  • “Obviously, I don’t know all of his ideas, but let me tell you about two that are incredible,” answered Huang. “The first one is utterly visionary. The idea of tariffs being a pillar of a bold vision to re-industrialize to onshore manufacturing and motivate the world to invest in the United States is just an incredible vision.”

    Huang is not an idiot, so the fact that he sounds like a massive one here (clearly forgetting that this isn’t Trump’s vision, but Hawley-Smoot’s back in the 20s. Clearly forgetting how that turned out. And then using the word “vision” over and over) means that he’s obviously just making money hand over foot from this deal.

    My question is how. Did Taiwan (yes, it was listed as a separate country in the tariff chart) get a specific microprocessor exemption? Or is he just banking that people are going to buy gpus no matter what because of AI/crypto?















  • Anyone with a brain and a shred of critical thought will look at mass layoffs and see them as the desperate move of an idiot in charge who couldn’t think of anything else to save money.
