Andrew Côté: So then why would Terafab need a Free Electron Laser, and why wouldn’t they just use what ASML does currently, laser-tin droplet ablation? To answer this we should start at the beginning: the fundamental physics of semiconductor photolithography. Laser-tin droplet ablation has low efficiency, requires one light source per scanner, and yield quality […]
The United States must create a new type of more vertically-integrated foundry to continue pushing Moore’s Law in both performance and cost. And we're finally on our way.

Mario Zechner, creator of Pi which is the agent inside OpenClaw: I’m a simple boy, so I like simple things. Agents can run Bash and write code well. Bash and code are composable. So what’s simpler than having your agent just invoke CLI tools and write code? This is nothing new. We’ve all been doing […]
