i will note that their source appears to be moore's law is dead which is a speculative youtube channel that has a long history of being wrong about the death of arc. dude has been predicting the imminent death of arc since the first one released years ago. it wouldn't surprise me if this did lead to the death of arc, but it certainly isn't because this moron predicted it. | ||

> because this moron predicted it. I don't think that's fair, at all, for two reasons: My whole career has been in HW. In the few startups I was in, where I was privy to the higher decisions, the executives themselves were predicting if hardware would continue next year. It's normal for things to flip-flop, decisions to change, normally, but especially when a product isn't competitive, and you don't have the resources to keep it that way. A leaker can be 100% correct in what they say the current decisions are, and 100% wrong the next week. I've seen it happen, with whole teams fired because they weren't needed anymore. He makes it very clear when he's speculating and when he's relaying what he's been told, and his confidence for them all (some leakers are proven trustworthy, some are not). This alone is why he doesn't deserve to be called a moron. Morons can't comprehend or communicate uncertainty. | ||

It is because the moron predicted it, if the CEO read the prediction, and killed arc |
