Anthropic released their complete prompt engineering guide. 99% won't read it. I spent 3 days testing every single technique. While you're saying "please" and "thank you" to AI, smart operators are using advanced techniques to 10x their output. Here's how you can do the same:

Apple made $100 billion in profits in a single year. They paid almost nothing in U.S. taxes. All thanks to a tiny Irish office with 4 employees. Congress called it the β€œHoly Grail of tax avoidance.”. Here’s how Apple used a loophole to dodge billions in taxes (legally): 🧡

4. Private investment might flow into Intel for political reasons, bringing the competition down. Also, the CHIPS Act was never written to let the government buy company stock. Lawyers are saying this deal "may not be legal" under current law. What do you think?.

1. Foreign and U.S. firms might feel pressured to buy Intel chips to stay on America's good side. 2. Other US chip companies now compete against a rival backed by Uncle Sam. 3. Intel’s decisions will now be driven by political rather than commercial considerations.

The government has now decided to convert $8.9 billion in grants to buy 10% of Intel's stock. This means the American government has officially become the largest shareholder of Intel. Let me tell you why this is a problem:.

If you calculate, the US government paid $2.5 million per job created through CHIPS Act. Instead of generating 10K jobs, Intel decided to let go 15K people. Its stock price is trading below book value - meaning investors consider Intel for less than the value of its facilities.

The CHIPS Act was supposed to change all that. The idea was to encourage global chipmakers to build semiconductor manufacturing facilities in the United States. Intel got $44.5 billion - 84% of the entire budget, but that has not yet given any results.

Today TSMC and Samsung are mass-producing 2nm chips. Whereas Intel is stuck on "Intel 4" - equivalent to TSMC's 7nm from years ago. Intel's manufacturing yields stands at 10%. Whereas Industry standard for profitability are 70-80%.

The cracks started showing in 2014. Intel's 10nm process was supposed to ship in 2015, but it didn't arrive until 2019 - four years late. During those same four years, TSMC perfected 5nm and started mass production.

Capital efficiency. Building a modern chip factory costs $15-20 billion. Fabless companies avoided this entirely while TSMC spread costs across hundreds of customers. Intel was stuck funding every factory themselves. .

Then the industry started splitting in two. Fabless companies like Nvidia designed chips, then outsourced manufacturing to foundries like TSMC. Intel wanted to do everything themselves and keep all the profits. But the fabless model had one killer advantage Intel missed.

Then came the iPhone. Steve Jobs went to Intel and asked them to make the processor for the iPhone. But the company refused thinking smartphones would only become a niche product.

In 2000, Intel was untouchable. They controlled 80% of the global CPU market. Under Andy Grove, Intel's market cap grew 4,500% from $4 billion to $197 billion through vertical integration.

While Intel burns through $16.5 billion annually on research (31% of its revenue), TSMC spends just $5.9 billion and dominates 65% of the global market. But this wasn't always the case.

Intel has outsourced 30% of production to TSMC and pays them $19 billion for it. Think of it again. The irony here is that Intel pays their competitor to make the chips while taking $44.5 Billion of taxpayer money (under the CHIPS act) to compete with that same competitor.

Norway's "wealth tax" was supposed to generate $146 million. But businessmen worth $54 Billion fled the country and now Norway loses $600 million every single year. Why Norwegian tax policy is criminally stupid and your country is about to follow the lead: 🧡

Earlier, tax was supposed to be temporary war funding. In fact, Britain burned the tax records in 1816 thinking they'd never need income tax again. Today's 50-60% combined tax rates are nothing but a shame. What do you think? Let me know in the comments.
