I’m sure some DC ghouls are trying to but this is pure Hopium on the West’s part. Building a single fab can take years and very specialised know how. To serve as a substitute of TSMCs fabs you need to transfer the technologies - integration, routes, litho mask schemas etc. This shit needs the active participation of Taiwanese engineers and experts.
How many would be willing to go along with this and help make themselves obsolescent? How many will drag their feet or impede the process, making it take years longer still?
If you don’t transfer the technology then previous customers would need to redesign their chips from scratch using the new process design kits. That’s a hard sell and even with active enticement will take many years.
I’m not saying it’s categorically impossible. I just don’t see the US having the focus and political tools to actually make it happen.
And still is. The US did a soft coup in Pakistan earlier this year
I'm not sure you know the meaning of the word uncritical but go off.
Also, just so we're on the same page, what do you believe happened in 2014 and what has happened since then until Feb 2022? What political and demographic conditions do you believe set the stage for the conflict that has been going on since then?
Your comparison to WW2 in 1943 is also wildly off. For one, you've got it mixed up which side is wearing the Nazi insignia and celebrating Nazi collaborators and enthusiastic participants in the Holocaust. For another, the USSR turned the war around in 1943. It would make no sense to call for armistice when you're winning. Ukraine is currently stalled and bleeding manpower and materiel. The counteroffensive is all but done, were it not for Western insistence that fighting continues to the last Ukrainian.
I’m gonna push back on this fam. It’s peak libshittery to internet diagnose someone with mental health problems as a way to "critique" their positions. We’re not about that shit.
Fam, this is hexbear turf. You don’t need to prevaricate when calling racism out. Any chud gets in here to froth at us he’s gonna get bullied then promptly banned
No, we’re like Fremen cause we drink our own piss
Then I get to savour the irony of an unread, intellectually incurious shitlib telling a bunch of communists to go read theory. I’m sure you don’t get it, but I promise you, this is quite a treat for us
It’s 10 hrs later and you’ve still not offered a better book on the topic. What should we read, lib? What book do you recommend?
