minus-squareTheGrandNagus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 months agoI am so tired of people, especially people who pretend to be computer experts online, completely failing to understand what Moore’s Law is. Moore’s Law != “Technology improves over time” It’s an observation that semiconductor transistor density roughly doubles every ~2 years. That’s it. It doesn’t apply to anything else. And also for the record, Moore’s Law has been dead for a long time now. Getting large transistor density improvements is hard.
