It doesn't matter how forcefully you repeat yourself without backing it up.
Also performance has increased with transistor density with more cores.
- ncmncm 7y agoI see that you are convinced that Gordon Moore was an idiot who cared only for counting transistors, and had no interest in how they are used. I also see that you have confused "much smaller increase", which is observed by everyone, with "no increase", which literally no one has said.
- BubRoss 7y agoI quoted Moore's Law and linked you the actual history, you have some reading to do.
- ncmncm 7y agoI read it in the '80s. And understood it. You could, too, with some thought. It's not too late.
- BubRoss 7y agoDon't you think maybe you should take a step back when you repeat the same things over and over, never back them up and have multiple people link you different Wikipedia articles to correct you?
- ncmncm 7y agoNow you are multiple people? Anybody can read Wikipedia, but evidently not everybody can understand what it says.
