Processor speed Memes

Ah, the classic "technically correct but practically useless" graph! The Y-axis shows a tiny range from 3.18 to 3.32 GHz, making that 0.1 GHz difference (3.2 → 3.3) look like Moore's Law on steroids. Marketing departments be like: "BEHOLD OUR REVOLUTIONARY 3.1% SPEED INCREASE!" while charging you 50% more for your next CPU. It's the hardware equivalent of adding a single line break to your code and claiming you've refactored the entire codebase. The graph scaling is so manipulative it should come with its own LinkedIn profile specializing in "data visualization enhancement."
