As training went on, tensions mounted. U.S. engineers told Rest of World that some Taiwanese male engineers had calendars with bikini models on their desks and occasionally shared sexual memes in group chats. A female American colleague, according to an American trainee who witnessed the conversation, asked a Taiwanese engineer to remove his computer wallpaper depicting a bikini model. One former American engineer said some local co-workers referred to him as a “white breeding pig,” implying he was only in Taiwan to sleep with local women. At a meeting, a manager said Americans were less desirable than Taiwanese and Indian workers, according to people who saw leaked notes, which circulated among trainees.

uP = Microprocessors. National Semiconductor bought Cyrix around 1996-1997. I was supporting their uP and SoC (system on a chiip) products. The uP wars were real and intense, we were competing with AMD and Intel uPs back when the fastest were in the 200Mhz to 400Mhz range. We were briefly neck and neck with them but stumbled at 366Mhz. Ended up selling Cyrix off.
