That looks like a pretty straight line to me, TBH. You're doing more subdivision than is fair to the data. I did my own graph of just density, which is also pretty clearly straight.

- kurthr 7y agoYours is noticeably straighter than the Wikipedia page. I see that you are plotting density and not #transistors? Is that what Moores law says? Or does die size count? If you plot total #transistors your fitted slope will plummet in the later years and you'll see the change post 2006.
- Veedrac 7y agoI think what Moore's law is depends on who you ask. Density makes sense and seems to be holding true, but so does cost/transistor, which hasn't.
- perl4ever 7y agoThe Wikipedia chart looks pretty straight to me. What I think you are calling "a change in slope" looks to me more like a period in which there were a bunch of outliers, and those outliers formed a kind of hump.
