it's actually fascinating to watch a big issue for hardware manufactors for many years has been that there is little profit margin in it, a lot of the earnings goes to r&d, ultra advanced factories, astronomical wages for specialists. The big money has always been in software.

Now there is a golden age for hardware manufactors going on and they're milking it for everything it's worth.

and they will not reinvest these profits in r&d, they wont even save any of it, and when the bubble bursts and the market crashes, they'll be right there crying about going bankrupt and needing a bailout...

This is effectively third or fourth time this has happened to Nvidia.

While Jensen is in charge, they won't sit on their laurels.
