“No such thing as big or small, just efficient.” A decade ago, I was intro’d to someone who told me in our first meeting that my idea was too small for him to be able to help. Former special forces guy. Didn’t give af about feelings. I wanted to call him an asshole but I made

TSMC Engineers Arizona Chip Manufacturing Knowledge Transfer Initiative

Also, for the xenophobic mfers.

TSMC sent over 1,000 semiconductor engineers from Taiwan to help ramp things up.
This is temporary. They moved to Arizona with their families and I hope they are welcomed. Do you want knowledge transfer or not?

TSMC Triples Arizona Investment to $60B, Creates 20,000 Jobs

FYI, originally in 2020, TSMC planned to build 1 plant and invest $12B. Fast forward to 2024 and they are now building 3 plants and investing $60B in Arizona. If you’re in the replies complaining about $60B in investment and 20,000 jobs then you just want to be a whiny baby.

US Manufacturing Decline and Taiwan Tech Dependency Challenge

I understand that it bother you that short sighted decisions made by American CEOs decades ago to sell out America’s manufacturing sector has America now relying on the investment and expertise of friendly Taiwanese people. Your zero sum feelings aren’t my responsibility.

Taiwan semiconductor dependency raises geopolitical stability concerns
By

Fair enough. My point is, spinning up fabs in America relies on Taiwanese people so people should be more mindful of saying their quiet things out loud about being ok with Taiwan being annexed and the rest of the world destabilized.

Misconceptions about US semiconductor fab production complexity

Too many Americans also think semiconductor fabs in America can be built and spun up like car factories.

It must feel so inconvenient to some tech bros that the key to getting what you want out of Taiwan is to care about Taiwan the way Taiwanese Americans do.

This one roaming the night markets of Taipei looks like he’s made people a lot of money already.

Taiwan semiconductor independence strategic necessity America allies

Even if you all don’t give a shit about what happens to Taiwanese people, the pragmatic response would be that it’s in the interest of America and its allies that Taiwan remains free so an authoritarian country doesn’t control the world’s supply of advanced semiconductors.

TSMC Arizona Fab Requires 500 Engineers Knowledge Transfer
By
–
That TSMC fab in Arizona required 500 Taiwanese engineers to come over and help ramp things up while they sent 500 American engineers over to train. Given that it’s going to take about 50 advanced semiconductor fabs to catch up with Taiwan and about 5 years and $40B each to
