Intel Co-Founder Gordon Moore, the Man Behind Moore's Law, Dies at 94

The law still holds, or still doesn't hold any longer, depending on who you ask. But the lawmaker and judge has passed away and now we don't know what's legal and what isn't.

Thanks!

The Semiconductor Industry Association—whose members include Intel, IBM, and Nvidia—has cosigned letters opposing the Minnesota legislation, arguing its measures are overly broad and could prohibit thousands of products, including electronics.

Interesting that they didn't also mention AMD or TSMC who are also members of SIA. :confused:

Is possible these 3 members of SIA would be ones lobbying independent of other members and SIA itself.
