In my region people grow hay (non-grain grass) on land they grow corn on, and bale it up to sell as livestock feed. It's part of crop rotation bc corn is rough on the soil but they could also just grow soy or a variety of other grain p

Huawei launched a line of cellphone chips using N5 at the same time as Apple, right before they got banned from using TSMC. It seems like others could pay enough if they really wanted to.

The EU passed their own Chips Act earlier this year. It was a point of contention since Intel's CEO has kept threatening to expand in Europe instead of the US if the US CHIPS act isn't passed.

It's going to cost a lot more than $10m or you're going to have to start a lot simpler. This year, Tower Semiconductor (soon to be part of Intel) has proposed spending $3b on joint venture fab in India that will produce 65nm chips

It's probably related because Japan and the US both need a lot of natural gas to produce electricity, and natural gas is very expensive this year. The US replaced coal with natural gas because it was cheaper and cleaner. Japan replaced

Maybe some, but Intel would need to take steps to prove that they're trustworthy. In the event that Intel's fabs become the best in the future, there's a situation that will happen where Intel might be tempted to use it all u

Intel previously stated that they were ramping their similar level of tech (20A) in 2024. So outsourcing to TSMC at a later date seems like they aren't expecting their internal fabs to be able to supply enough for what they need.

It wasn't razor edge in 2009, when TSMC was running a 40% utilization rate. Forecasting is hard, and when you have in recent experience a massive glut it makes companies conservative about demand forecasts and investments.
