The situation in Taiwan is truly critical. Imagine: in some regions, rainfall has reached only 7% of normal levels — a drop in the ocean for industrial giants like Hsinchu. Cho Yung-tai is right to sound the alarm: when reservoirs like Bao’er dry up, it’s not only rice field irrigation...
Generally you see Rapidus talking to investors and customers, two very different audiences. The 1nm talk is all about investors. Keep shoveling me money Investors so we can get to 1nm. Of course Rapidus has to mention TSMC because that is the gold standard, that is what investors understand. We...
When I want accurate TSMC utilization numbers I go to the Korean media, absolutely. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
The TSMC Tech Symposium is next month. I predict we will hear: Capacity is tight... like we have heard many times before because that is a powerful position to negotiate...

It still looks like a head fake to get a better wafer agreement, better than his AI competitors.
He can pre pay TSMC to build fabs, like Apple did, and get a special process that others cannot use which would have a 99.99% success rate.

Without her face and voice would the channel be so popular? Be honest.......
I'm a fan for sure but her content is going down and her marketing is going up. Not a great recipe for trust and without trust what do channels like this have? Constructive criticism Anastasi. I am still a follower.

While NVIDIA—reportedly TSMC’s largest customer—has repeatedly signaled it is pushing for additional wafer allocation amid tight supply, it is far from alone in feeling the strain. According to Reuters, citing...
As some of you know I grew up an Intel fan early on in my Semiconductor life. My first PC was an IBM PC XT and my fandom grew from there. I actually got to meet Andy Grove when he was CEO of Intel at a semiconductor conference. I had seen Gordon Moore speak a couple of times in 1984/5 but he did...
