    An integrated circuit, or chip, is one of the biggest innovations of the 20th century. The microchip launched a technological revolution, created Silicon Valley, and everyone’s got one in their pocket (read: smartphones).
    When you zoom in on one of these chips, you find a highly complex, nanoscale-sized city that’s expertly designed to send information back and forth.
    And chip manufacturers continue to shrink the size of microchips, hitting smaller and smaller milestones while also increasing the number of features a chip has. The result is an improved overall processing power.
    This is what’s been driving the semiconductor industry-a drumbeat called Moore’s Law.
    Moore's Law is the golden rule in computing: The number of transistors on a microchip can be expected to double every two years, while the cost of computers is cut in half. This basically means we'll have more speed, at less cost, over time. And so, we've been shrinking transistors (the tiny electric switches that process data for everything from clocks to AI algorithms) down to really, really tiny nanoscales.
    And though we've hit a physical limit on how small these transistors can get, Intel (and a couple other competitors, like Samsung and TSMC) are betting big on something new: EUV Lithography.
    Find out more about this next generation of chip technology that is taking Moore’s Law to a new level on this episode of Focal Point.

What I’m saying is that these lithography machines which attempt to push beyond Moore’s Law by crunching more transistors onto silicon integrated circuits are not the future of Moore’s Law. Currently we’re at over 2,000 qubits in D-Wave systems which means their quantum transistor count on their CPU has essentially reset. Billions of bits on a classic CPU only 2,000 qubits on a QCPU but theirs a catch. Put that QCPU in superposition and we now have a 2,000 qubits to the power of 2,000.

      Let's also remember that if the average rate of improvement during the 1990's had continued until today, the 50% per year clock speed improvement and ~30% power increase would have gotten us 5 THz processors, still single core, with a 15 kW TDP. It really hasn't been this smooth exponential increase in performance. The 90's were pretty magical, especially for real-time applications like games. Since then, parallel tasks like graphics have improved greatly while framerates and overall complexity of games have stagnated. Multicore CPUs are a mixed blessing, to use more cores, work is split over multiple frames, so framerates are improved, but there is more latency and now you need ~144 FPS just to feel like 60 FPS used to. The big gains have been in graphics, throughput computing and power consumption.

A helpful tip is to look at a wavelength chart, the shorter it is, the more high energy it is, meaning the less damage they can do. You start getting to ionizing radiation near the end of ultraviolet and off to gamma rays. Generally visible light and anything to the left of it is safe.
      TLDR: If microwaves and infrared cause cancer, then visible light does too, so therefore there's no point.

    In the mid-1990's I worked for IBM in manufacturing, with no technical background, just helping run machines evaporating metals to deposit them on chips, running a plasma-powered scrubbing process, and polishing the wafers before cutting into separate chips.....it gave me a glimpse into the exponential progression of miniaturization, and we're in the middle of the bottom dropping out of miniaturization in manufacturing....a lot of what had to happen was the hyper-miniaturization of computer chips, allowing machines to help solve the problems of miniaturizing themselves, in a way. A dandruff flake could wipe out hundreds of thousands of dollars of work, in the processes shown in the video...medical applications are mostly going to be awesome, especially if everyone has access to their help. The look of everyday items will largely get more sleek, even though I predict retro-looking design will remain popular as more people decide that a lot of that stuff just looks 😎 cool....

      Fun fact, that stand is extremely inefficiently made. They start with a giant block of aluminum and mill it down instead of casting the general shape and finishing it. When made that way, the $1000 price tag becomes almost reasonable. But you still have to ask why as there are better ways of making extremely sturdy stands. I guess Apple can't get enough of that free marketing of people complaining about it.

Graphene can only be called Graphene if the atoms are arranged in such way that the carbon atoms form a one dimensional sheet of carbon atoms. That means that the sheet can be only one single atom thick. That is THE definition from Graphene. There are some composite materials, but those materials are strictly seen no longer Graphene because the combined materials have different specifications from the original base materials.
      I've had this discussion many times with internet fraud Robert Murray Smith, who claims that he can produce Graphene with his kitchen oven and some other kitchen tools. And he sells his DIY charcoal (so called Graphene) as if it is Graphene on his website, and people are falling for his scam and people actually buy his crap. I have tried to warn people, but my comments get removed, and his group of followers even seem to look at him as if he is a hero.
