Reply to comment by punxcs in TSMC reportedly building 1nm chip fab in northern Taiwan by Saltedline

Moore's law is not about technological progress generally. It's a specific observation that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit double every two years. Since we are reaching the physical limit of increasing transistor density, Moore's law is dead.

>Who knows what technological breakthroughs will occur in the next two years.

That is literally not the point.

The original law also said costs would halve every 2 years and that's been dead for a while now.
