Anime Schoolgirl posted:I will be very surprised if this somehow doesn't end in Krzanich's ejection from corporate because holy poo poo things have got to be really dire for him to finally consider signing on. Intel is continuing to have record quarters and he's built up a narrative that he's transformed the company to a post PC one. The stock price and numbers he shows backs this up. Whether the success is real and sustainable is a different topic, but for the immediate term he's done what the board wants so he's probably safe.

Apple acquired him, and he designed a couple ARM processors for them.

You basically have to summon him from another plane using a ritual and then sacrifice some folks to get him to design a chip for you.

Khorne posted:Keller was mostly responsible for the shelved AMD ARM stuff that never came to light. The people who designed Zen largely still work for AMD. Jim Keller was head of both the K12 and Zen teams [source] It's obviously true that there are still CPU designers working for AMD.

It's easy to make your bottom line look good when your headcount gets shotgunned to hell. Nearly everyone on my old team that is still there is doing the work of 3+ people and with the hiring freeze still in place outside of specific project groups, it doesn't look like relief is coming for them anytime soon. The only thing that got Intel off their rear end is literally AMD lighting a Zen Fire underneath it. Otherwise they would still have been dropping quad core/dual core mobile consumer CPU's and charging $1000+ for their HEDT chips like the last few years before Zen. Sure there are probably other bits that pushed the bar, but can you say you've seen this kind of movement from Intel in the past what, 10 years at the speed they are moving since Zen dropped? Now Jim joins the mix because hey, he's done it for everyone else, now Intel can develop the next chip to surpass Core for the first time since

Even with AMD being competitive, Spectre/Meltdown, and 10nm dead on the vine? Intel posted a record Q1. Client computing (desktop/laptop) up 3%, server up 24%. One interesting point, volume 10nm is now officially pushed into 2019, 3 years late and counting. https://s21.q4cdn.com/600692695/files/doc_financials/2018/Q1/Q1-2018_EarningsRelease-FINAL.pdf

Cygni posted:Wasn't K12 essentially what Qualcomm is shipping in the Centriq 2400? Kinda sounds like they got beaten to the punch. It should've been out right around Zen launch initially IIRC. No one really knows why it was abandoned but the general rumor is that once they saw how good Zen was turning out it got pushed the wayside since they considered a new Intel competitive x86 chip to be a safer financial bet than a server targeted ARM chip.

BangersInMyKnickers posted:Telsa is going to be vying with Uber for the most unprofitable company in the history of the world pretty soon This got started because someone said something to the effect of "...Keller realized Musk is a loving idiot..." What's your point? Amazon ran a deficit for years, so maybe he's more of a Bezos, except, he's beating Bezos (and ULA, and Russia) with his rocket company. So I guess I'll make the claim that god head Elon will turn Tesla into the most important car company in the history of man. Do you agree that Musk is a loving idiot, or is it that not all of his businesses are profitable?
