TSMC EUV machines are rigged to be destroyed in the event of an invasion and the US will probably flatten the fabs for good measure.

TSMC has factories in lots of places, but yields on their advanced nodes are SPS outside of Taiwan. Guess why

Go ahead and bomb this, I'm sure Musk and Palantir won't mind.

Same article says Arizona won't get to 3nm till 2028. What's the hold-up? White people too stupid?
