This article from 2015 ("The Death of Moore’s Law Will Spur Innovation: As transistors stop shrinking, open-source hardware will have its day") is getting better and better with age.

- KirillPanov 6y agoJust the opposite, really. As the cost of continuing Moore's Law approaches infinity yes, it will cease to continue. But not before all but one foundry has been driven out of business. And then that one remaining foundry will dominate the entire chip industry. Also: they'll treat startups like dogshit unless they use automatic place-and-route. So chip startups will be reduced to glorified FPGA jockeys. Hard to differentiate when all you're allowed to do is sling Verilog.
