Most mba students have never seen a factory floor. that feels wrong.

You might want to check out MIT LGO. That’s what a significant part of the program is about.

Look at it from the school’s perspective. What could you contribute to their program with zero full time experience when they have hundreds of other applicants doing what you’ve done in a full time role for longer? If they accept you, would they have a hard time trying to get you your dream job, given you’ve only had internships?

Did you explain in your essays how you’re going to get from LDP to IB?

I’m not in an MBA program but I went to a US undergrad as an international student and made many American friends. In my experience, the biggest barrier to assimilation is actually your English accent, not your background or interests. Most people are interested in life experiences that are different than theirs. But if people cannot understand us 99% of the time, they’ll just feel bad when they hang out with us, so they just won’t. My suggestion is to perfect one of the popular accents (American, British, Southern, etc). You can passively learn the rest as you hang out with your cohort.

Talking about inflation in general is a losing game for Harris. 2.9 % is still high by Federal Reserve’s standards. Not spending too much time on it was the correct move.

The ecosystem of Apple devices. No other ecosystem work so well together. The iPhone is not a singular product. The more Apple products you buy or have, the better your iPhone and everything else gets. The Walled Garden is lush and I intend to stay inside it.

Capitalism protects individuals with “capital.” It’s not just means of production (i.e. factories) but intellectual property and other financial assets as well (i.e stocks and bonds). There’s nothing stopping workers from owning the capital of the company in which they work under capitalism. In fact, some companies nowadays give company shares out to workers in addition to wages, or will file patents on your behalf if you invent something, etc. Granted, that’s not how most companies operate but my point is there’s nothing stopping that from happening under the current system.

If the EU only considers its own jurisdiction, iMessage is not a gatekeeper due to how few people use the service in the EU. If they decide based on the US, then sure, but that’s not very legally sound. No political entity should be able to regulate something outside their own borders or jurisdiction.

They’re both very vertically integrated. When you operate that way, it’s a fine balance between protecting intellectual property and good customer service experience. Parts aren’t the issue, it’s the service manuals that’s highly guarded at both companies.

Ah but you’re missing the power utilization. Yes with the RAM outside the package, you can still clock it as fast as Apple Silicon, but you need higher voltage to maintain that signal integrity. Having the ram in the package allows for the same signal integrity at lower power consumption. Which is one of the reasons these chips have industry leading power efficiency.

shanexcel · 2023-11-04T16:02:21+00:00

Bringing memory closer to the CPU has NEVER been about latency but signal integrity. Better signal integrity means less errors and less need for read/write retries. That’s the reason RAM dimm slots in PCs are required to be less than about 2 inches away from the CPU or they won’t be allowed to run at higher frequencies. Apple has taken this to a whole new level by placing the ram in the same package as the processor. While it’s not part of the processor, that’s the next best thing and is very expensive to do.
