Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

The goal here isnt to have personal devices run the shitty vibe-coded apps, it’s to lease time in datacenters to have them run it for you and stream it to your device for a monthly fee.

Sure but there are deep seated problems with this: (1) the shitty vibe coded apps are so bloated that they can't run their client side code without thick clients, (2) optimizing code is something nobody wants -- or in many cases knows how -- to do, and (3) Internet access is still spotty in many parts of the US and will likely stay that way due to other digital landlords seeking rent for fallow fields.
