I think this was more of a response to the linked benchmark at guru3d which said:
> Instructions per cycle (IPC)
> For many people, this is the holy grail of CPU measurements in terms of how fast an architecture per core really is.
Based on his work with simdjson, professor Lemire seems to be quite aware of microbenchmarks being problematic. But general articles out here and on HN are proclaiming Intel is doomed and can never recover, due to mitigations/lack of cores/lack of chiplets. Those concerns have yet to be reflected in the stock price.
Intel are behind. They have a pretty big cash buffer and a solid sales channel, as well as being pretty entrenched in OEMs. So they are a very long way from being doomed, even if it takes them a long time to turn the ship around (like 00's Microsoft).
