Reply to comment by Leanardoe in Japan to Manufacture 2nm Chips With a Little Help From IBM by Avieshek
I mean in the article they said it is expected to be produced before the end of this decade. TSMC is already planning to mass produce 3nm next year in 2023, it is very likely they would have something akin to 2nm by 2025 or 2026, still years ahead.
The fact is Japan has not been competitive in cutting edge chip fab for more than a decade and this is not something you can simply catch up by throwing money at it.

Reply to comment by PR7ME in Renault's heavy electric trucks are now available to order by darth_nadoma
Err no. Wholesale electricity only costs a fraction of wholesale diesel or gas right now for the same mileages. Further more electrical drivetrains having much less moving parts and therefore require much less maintenance as well. And these two things will cost multiple trucks worth of money over its operating lifetime.

Reply to comment by Daotar in The often misused buzzword Paradigm originated in extremely popular and controversial philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn's work; he defined the term in two core ways: firstly as a disciplinary matrix (similar to the concept of a worldview) and secondly as an exemplar by thelivingphilosophy
In addition to that, language is not a fixed paradigm, it is defined by people using it, not the other way around. When enough people use a word in the "wrong" way, it becomes the correct and normal way to use it.
