Although this is in 2021, it's great to see that Sam Zeloof also made Atomic Semi [0].
A display of "just doing things", no permission needed and no need for barriers and red tape.
It is another reason why I have huge promise for Substrate [1] founded by James Proud (UK native moved to US) another display of "just doing things".
However in Europe and the UK, it's "this law allows you to do this, this and this", "we've changed the law, here is a massive immediate fine", "ban encryption" (this nearly happened), "ban maths", "we are the first to regulate and ban this".
It is no wonder the US will continue to be great at building things.

- LarsDu88 11mo agoAs much as I hate to say it Substrate is probably a fraud https://www.reddit.com/r/Semiconductors/s/jpuI772PJB https://www.reddit.com/r/Semiconductors/s/jpuI772PJB If Europe has an overregulation problem, the US may also have a grifter problem

- LarsDu88 11mo agoCurrent US president pardoned Trevor Milton, ceo of fake hydrogen car company Nikola. Right now its ok to be a fraudster so long as you make at least a billion dollars doing the fraud.
- iNerdier 11mo agoIt’s also worth seeing how many US superfund sites are on former chip fabs. Intel, AMD, Fairchild etc. all just dumped things down the drains. Regulations can be bad but they can also stop environmental disasters from happening.
- goku12 11mo ago> Regulations can be bad but they can also stop environmental disasters from happening. It makes me wonder how bad the situation is, when you feel the need to start your sentence with 'regulations can be bad', while corporations fight you for their right to release PFAS into your drinking water sources.
- perching_aix 11mo agoIs the "regulation bad" / "Europe bad" angle actually relevant here, or did you just take the opportunity to use this thread as your soapbox?
