> The fact that RISC-V jumped to Switzerland after being funded by the US during its development makes me inclined to say screw RISC-V.

are you perhaps referring to some specific company in the RISC-V space? or are you actually saying "damn, foreign actors embraced an idea we originated, guess i've gotta flip positions and decide the idea of an open ISA is bad now"?

they are referring to the industry consortium that defines risc-v, which is in switzerland because its legislators don't pull dumb stunts like this

Let's ban AI research too and be left behind. /s

I see this as short sighted anti China fear mongering but China is now at a point where is can invotate itself with out the help of "western" tech.

Let's sanction China from using Microsoft or Apple products, forcing them to turn to open source operating systems like Linux, and then let's make Linux illegal, ensuring that only government-approved, sufficiently-backdoored corporate operating systems are allowed! Any responsible, patriotic citizen should be onboard with that!

I mean Altman is working on that one...

This makes the move to Switzerland look prescient.
