That's an interesting explanation and somehow I never heard it explained that way before. It makes sense if one thinks of the transistor count doubling relative to where that company previously was, and not where the…
I am pretty shocked but I guess ASML delivers by 747. [1][2] But they do seem to know what they're doing. :) "The current generation of EUV machines are already, to put it bluntly, kind of bonkers. Each one is roughly…
Increasing supply chain resiliency by having multiple, geographically separated, sites this more of a thing now. https://hbr.org/2020/09/global-supply-chains-in-a-post-pande... "The obvious way to address heavy…
> node names are entirely unrelated to any physical dimensions I agree they're not necessarily related to any particular transistor dimension but are you sure it's entirely unrelated to any physical dimensions? If so,…
Does anyone know why Intel would want to build a "mega-site" in the city of Columbus Ohio? Why not choose Cleveland Ohio where one has port access with an existing route to Europe? Fabs are international affairs, no…
If this analysis is even half correct those selling x86 server CPUs need to be concerned. Today there is a huge moat in existing x86 software, sure, but savings like that can justify many ports.…
The comment was in the context of a San Francisco City Ordnance, so the question is, does the City of San Francisco use Real-time continuous facial recognition? Today the answer is no, but that's likely to change;…
> The ordinance basically presumes a context of continuous, 24 hour surveillance or access thereto. I definitely agree with everything that you wrote but real-time continuous facial recognition is going to be here…
It depends, is the wafer passing or failing the manufacturing tests? This is an important consideration.
Probably. From a follow on article, "The biggest factor is heat. “Higher speeds tends to produce higher temperatures and temperature is the biggest killer,” says Rita Horner, senior product marketing manager for 3D-IC…

I suppose depending on how extreme we're going with unfocusing on math. But one doesn't really get to ignore math in life because of money. You'll still need to figure some things out. I can say I'm a poor painter so…
Definitely. I think when people say they suck at math what they mean is; I find math homework extremely boring and unrewarding. Which perpetuates sucking at math and only compounds. Then things get worse as modern…
Just to expand on this, when I worked as a grader in college I noted on engineering test keys the professor's answers were always roughly three short lines of handwritten equation. But the student's answer section were…

Are there any economists out there? How is it possible that inflation was basically 0 for more than 100 years? Does this imply that productivity and the money supply grew at exactly the rate (Which could imply neither…
