This is a strange article. Not sure why it has so much traction on hacker news. Seems to just take Intel press releases and spit them out with some prose. It doesn't say much, doesn't add much, parrots Intel marketing and performance statements uncritically, doesn't mention any competition, and generally is less informative about Intel's road map, fab process, and cadence than an average in-depth review of Kaby Lake architecture found anywhere else many months ago. It relates that info to the server sphere which can be useful, but not when the body of knowledge seems limited to what Intel says and doesn't put this information into a larger perspective or compares it with anything.
