Wait really? I'd love to read more. My scant interest understanding of silicon manufacturing makes this not make sense to me, but my understanding starts and ends at "TSMC makes the chips from the silicon wafers on commission."

Apple just winning a business gambit is a lot easier to place in my understanding of reality than "magic is real and Apple invented it"

The answer to "why are Apple's chips the best in the world" is that they have exclusive access to the latest and greatest assembly lines at TSMC, the best semiconductor foundry in the world. AMD and Nvidia have great CPUs and GPUs because they have secondary access to those lines after Apple.

oh yeah, this is definitely something where corporate interests might align with public interest in terms of mitigating the worst of it.

i'm anticipating apple won't be the first to raise prices if these tariffs come in. otherwise, my strategy is to wait until the generation where they ruin the form factor, so i can get the M6 Max or whatever the number will be, at a discount

fwiw there's gonna be tariffs but i imagine the elon musks of the world will talk trump down to making an exclusion on computer stuff because there's just so much money in that sector. remember he doesn't want to go on some (a)moral crusade he just wants to be popular with his rich buddies
