      Unfortunately it’s probably going to take a while before they can catch up. The lithography equipment used to make 5nm chips took decades of research in varying different fields in varying different countries to make a breakthrough.

      I don’t doubt they can eventually crack it faster than its original conception, but it’s still going to take a good chunk of time.

    The Netherlands’ decision to enforce export licensing on ASML’s lithography equipment…

    The “decision” made was to follow the orders of the USA. This is quite the framing.
