You're right. Racism here should be replaced with hate against a nation.

China has been investing heavily in green energy solutions for quite a while, it's not strange that they are seeing benefits.

Thanks, guys. That's really weird at best 😵‍💫

Can somebody elaborate on what the problems are?

They might work, but then one is bound to be online. Also different computers might have different configurations and that is something to pay attention to as well. Alternative is a synchronisation to source (nextcloud sounds a good fit) but then you might bump to synchronisation conflicts and such. Both ways will produce a lot of traffic unless you redirect creation of build artifacts to a local directory. Which might not be always possible.

But does it mean they own Linux? They list (support I guess) a lot of projects, including RISC-V. BTW smart move from RISC-V

A remote machine might not be always possible, such as when you develop mobile apps or when you have more than one monitor available. Sadly all options have problems. And (auto) pushing is not an option when you work on a team project where pushing non compilable code is not a welcome option.

That sounds like an advice, not something official? Also why is an open source project affected by US sanctions? It's not an US open source project, or is it?

I'd really like to see the criteria for delisting people, though. As Russia is not the only one waging wars, there are worse countries out there. I guess it all boils down to Linus being from Finland.

And one doesn't even need two NICs, right.

As others said, both work just fine with any GPU and Intel had serious issues lately with crashes. I'd say go with AMD unless you want higher power usage as Intel chips fare worse when it comes to perf/watt metrics. That said Intel CPUs might have an advantage at single threaded loads, but again, at much higher power use. AMD also tends to keep CPU sockets for longer thus less motherboard changes are required if you upgrade the CPU. You might also consider reading reviews on serious technical websites as it might give you inside into what performance and prices to expect.

Update: On more (implicitly expressed consequence) - due to Intel's much higher power requirements, they are more difficult to cool down - more expensive (air) coolers and quite possibly water cooling required.
