If somehow you get around the patent issues, you're now faced with huge research and development costs, fabs to build, processes to sort out and all of that has very high failure rates.
Last time I checked Micron was the largest patent holder in the world and even for them this is a hard area where they are number 3 in the market.
I keep hearing about post-quantum being an issue though.
So the title is just clickbait
I haven't had the same problems others have but I'm also not a heavy user of it.
I think they may just be to trusting and/or naive. People in tech right now are hyper aware of this and are actively looking while people outside of that bubble barely give it a second thought.
Did you read it? They are understaffed by hundreds of officers. What lower level officers are going to do it when it's all hands on deck to keep the ship afloat?
"“At this staffing level, more officers will be forced to work excessive overtime, which in turn will accelerate attrition,” Nguyen said in a statement. “We cannot meet the needs of our community without forcing officers into more shifts.”
It is true that OPD is severely understaffed by hundreds of officers. Mayor Barbara Lee is attempting to shrink the staffing gap, with plans to increase the number of officers. "
Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon, Meta etc etc. They just keep growing despite how people feel about them. I think the world has a tech addiction and it will take something pretty substantial to change that.
