    So this is how the tech dark ages start. The last 40yrs are erased, and we end up back in 1979 where everyone is selling a tech stack and nothing is compatible.

    Rebuilding around something which isn’t C would be a bright side.

    Qualcomm buying Intel would be a top 3 worst case. Broadcom or Marvel would be the other two.

    Some funny scenarios: Nvidia buys Intel, IBM buys Intel, Apple buys Intel.
