“The problems have been worsened by a string of other factors, including a fire at a semiconductor factory and weather issues.”
It is sometimes humbling to remember that despite our technical advances we’re still subject to the forces of nature.

Sometimes saving money instead of investing in risk mitigation systems cause things to fail. I don't believe force of nature is behind the chip shortage unless we are counting on "to err is human" then sure.
