Fascinating that High Performance Computers had export controls in the 90s as dual use technology but little restraint until recently.

How would we apply this today? Instead of MTOPS use TFLOPS FP16?


I thought your comment was a joke until I read the link. Wow

"District Attorney investigators found that in contradiction to the contract, information was stored on servers in the People’s Republic of China."


They had a software development subsidiary with a testing server / database in China that apparently received some actual poll-worker PII.

Apple - We can't make iPhones in the US and tariffs don't work

Also Apple - Tariffs made us move production to Brazil and India.


This isn't about manufacturing.


“To boost sales in India, Apple has started to assemble several iPhone models locally and reached a stage where it can begin to export to overseas markets phones produced in India.

That is already happening. That is not the change that happened recently that this article is about.
