Why do people keep saying this? There are many fans in the US. And for those that manufacture abroad, they still design their chips hear, ie Apple. People don't want to work at TSMC precisely because there are alternatives. Intel is demanding, but TSMC has a horrible track record regarding respecting their workers and safety. They don't even lock out electricity or gases on their tools when they're being worked on. As a personal anecdote, I received an offer from a company that paid much better to work at TSMC, but declined the offer based on the customer. Luckily a couple months later I found another job at the site I wanted that paid a little better even.

Intel recycles nearly 100% of the water they use, I'm sure TSMC will do something similar. They need to do a ridiculous amount of processing to make it suitable to return to the city supply anyways, so they just found a way to reuse
Except for Winco. Everyone I know loves Winco
I love that you have exactly 25 upvotes right now
And it's why I only use electrodes attached to my head that reads my thoughts
Ya you're right, I misunderstood the comment I replied to and I also didn't try to check the math, but it seemed in the ballpark. I don't know why people upvoted me lmao
It's bitch city up in here. Bitch city
My job requires me to go in bc I physically fix machines, so wouldn't be able to complete my tasks from home. I've convinced myself I like it because it gives me a definitive separation between work and home. But I've never had a WFH job and would probably end up liking that a lot more tbh
That was the original opening line of the national anthem, before the party poopers took it out
Is it really though? Injustices happen all the time here. I want to agree with you but I'm struggling to come up with good justifications for it. Can you explain your thinking a little bit?
I know your mom just did
No, Intel tried a novel architecture (different from TSMC) and it was found to be unviable. They basically wasted a few years going down the wrong path. They have incredible engineers and will catch up. We're at a point where the technology is limited by the machines they buy, which Intel and TSMC have the same vendors. They are behind because they went down a fruitless path, but they switched course and are now playing catch-up
