Thoughts?

Is this imperialism by China, a country which is supposed to be left-wing? Leftists are normally anti-imperialism. Wouldn’t it be better to let Taiwan democratically decide whether they want to be part of China or not?

    I think China does fervently wish that they can just “close in” to high end chip fabrication, but it’s not that easy. We’ll see, though.

      For sure. It’s gonna be bad for TSMC but I’m cautiously optimistic for its effect on us regular non-US peasants. Especially given the shortages created by the AI bubble. Should lower the cost of compute.
