In the past 10 years or so, tech specialists have repeatedly voiced concerns that the progress of computing power will soon hit the wall. Miniaturisation has physical limits, and then what? Have we reached these limits? Is Moore’s law dead? That’s what we’ll talk about today.

    Sorry, but Sabine Hossenfelder is a no go for me. In several of her videos, she cherry-picks her sources to fill the narrative she wants to portray and misleads the viewer into thinking what she says as pure facts rather than her own take. She actually makes me question if she’s a right wing shill.

      After the dumpster fire of a video she made on trans people some time ago, I will never trust anything she says ever.

      Then thanks for pointing that out. It seems I’m pretty much unaware of this. Maybe we watched different videos on different topics. I found her takes on physics generally well reasoned, and do remember her marking her opinion and at least sketching differing opinions.

      This is just to tell you where I’m coming from, I don’t want to argue. If you’re right and I am unaware, I want to learn. So if you like to point out an example or two, I’d be happy to look into it.

        Sure thing. The trans video that trashgirlfriend mentioned and the hydrogen videos were the ones I had in mind. I haven’t watched them recently but they both were missing information that would make the videos slant in one direction. The trans video was especially disingenuous and upsetting to be honest.
