    I don’t wanna sound like an idiot, but I have to say it. It’s “sped” not “speeded” right? If so 0/10 Reuters. If not 0/10 me

      Sped and speeded are both standard inflections of the verb to speed, and neither is more correct than the other. The old rule, purveyed in many English reference books, holds that speeded works only in the past-tense phrasal verb speeded up, but this recommendation is dated. In real-world, 21st-century usage, writers generally use whichever they think sounds best. Speeded is widely used without up, and sped is likewise used both alone and with up. Sped is about three times as common as speeded, though, which suggests that it remains the safer choice.

      It should have been “sped”. To hell with these 21st-century, let’s throw out all the grammar rules, ideals.

      The past tense of “speed” is “sped”. 😡

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Oct 24 (Reuters) - Chip designer Nvidia (NVDA.O) said new U.S. export curbs that block the sale of its high-end artificial intelligence chips to China came into effect on Monday as regulators advanced the timeline.

    The restrictions were supposed to come into play 30 days from Oct. 17 when the Biden administration unveiled measures to stop countries, including China, Iran and Russia, from receiving advanced AI chips designed by Nvidia and others.

    Nvidia does not expect a near-term impact on its earnings from this move, it disclosed in a filing on Tuesday, but did not say why the U.S. government had accelerated the timing.

    AMD, also impacted by the curbs, did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

    The restrictions disallow exports of Nvidia’s modified advanced AI chips A800 and H800 - both of which it had created for the Chinese market to comply with previous export rules.

    The Nvidia A100, H100, and L40S chips are also impacted by the curbs.
