Cautious optimism. China has made incredible progress on mature nodes but a leap like this tests the bounds of reason.

It's also not getting taped out (sorry, "tapped out") until sometime in 2025, so we'll be waiting a while to find out

China's endless clock warfare on the US

US oligarchs treated their peasants a lot nicer than they wanted to because they had to make things look better than the Soviet Union. We won't revolt against our government over a genocide, but losing the treat war? Unacceptable. This gives me a glimmer of hope

getting barred from participating in US neocolonial mercantilism is actually doing you a favor once your economy is a certain size

Intel chips self destruct too, which I doubt these do.

awesome. fuck intel
