alt Hacker NewsIt's not that supply was actually infinite, but you didn't realistically have situations where you said "I want to buy GPUs for a data center" only to be told "there's a 3 year waiting list."
You might have two months after NVidia 3090s came out where they were short, but it is nothing like today.
Citation needed. Industries that faced multi year supply constraints in recent memory include: nuclear power, battery manufacturing, flagship commercial aircraft models, late-stage pharmaceutical safety certification, certain luxury cars, and more.
