  • that’s completely unacceptable as restarting is not always an option. Microsoft can tell me all they want that I should restart if my current running process is gonna take a week to complete forcing the restart is completely unacceptable. Not everyone using this stuff is watching tiktok all day that can restart at a moments notice.















  • The fabs themselves aren’t the only limiting factor on modern lithography, skill is the bigger one; this stuff is probably more complicated than rocket science. We US engineers dont have the skills to run a competitive fab in the US, that takes many years of losing money to be developed. Intel has bigger better EUV machines than TSMC but they just cant compete and intel keeps laying off their engineers constantly which is a very bad signal.

    Also, last time I was reading on the topic TSMC doesn’t plan to produce advanced chips on their US fabs to gatekeep their knowledge.
