on HN thread Samsung ends Intel's 2-decade-plus reign in microchips
I watched this video yesterday, and it seems to explain a lot about how Intel has been less focused on building better technology in the last 10-15 years: [this video] I'm not sure how balanced the viewpoint in the video is, but the author comes up with a lot of references.

on HN thread AMD's Stock Price Jumps on News of Earnings Spurred by Ryzen
I'm not sure what you mean. From the time AMD released the K7 'Athlon' CPU, until the time Intel released Core2, AMD was king of performance. That's a long spawn of time. To understand why Intel kept selling CPUs like pancakes despite this, check this out: [this video]

on HN thread Intel Announces Optane DIMMs
I assume you mean Linus from YouTubes "Linus Tech Tips", and not Linus Torvalds. Surprised you wouldn't clarify that considering what website this is. Considering Intel's history, I wouldn't bet they direct their efforts based on a YouTube reviewer. Also, considering Intels very anti-competitive behavior (e.g [0], [1], [2]), I am wary of stating Intel entering the DDR industry will make it any less corrupt.

Evidence of Intel's anti-competitive history.
