Knowing which projects/languages/frameworks to invest time into and which to skip (even if they produce useful subprojects) is a superpower these days.

Always bet against Intel whenever it's something software?

Intel will probably be somebody’s subsidiary for less than $150B sometime within the next 3 years, pending DOJ approval.

$150B is pretty cheap if it comes with ready-to-go chip fabs.

I’d expect the fabs to get spun off at some point a la AMD/GlobalFoundries.

You have to remember it comes with a phenomenal debt load.

AMD/GF spin-off was backed by Saudi money, who is going to pay this time?
