Are there any "exports" to ban after the fall?
The TSMC production was interrupted by a metro passing by few kilometers away. How can it sustain in a war?
- starspangled 2y agoIf the factories weren't bombed before Taiwan fell to the communists, I'd imagine hey would still be cut off from western semiconductor technology, so they would still end up falling behind even if they could get them restarted.
- est 2y ago> get them restarted How can you run a good restaurant business if all the chefs and customers were gone? A nice setup of kitchen appliances surely means a lot but the key is the people.
- dotancohen 2y agoIsn't Taiwan in a heavy earthquake zone, the Ring of Fire? Does that not affect the factories more than a subway passing several kilometers away?
- est 2y agoThere are no forcasting for earthquakes, but they can be monitored and prevented to a minimum using a warning system, as electromagnetic signals travel faster seismic waves. Some few milleseconds would be enough. https://esg.tsmc.com/en/update/governance/caseStudy/1/index.html https://esg.tsmc.com/en/update/governance/caseStudy/1/index....
