Comment on TSMC Arizona struggles to overcome vast differences between Taiwanese and US work culture

Probably plan on intel on continuing to implode over the next few years and there not being a competitor lol

As much as I dislike how Intel works sometimes, this market does not need fewer competitors.

I agree but that doesn’t change the fact that intel is collapsing. I don’t think we need to artificially prop up failing companies either, if they are needed and they fail then nationalize their assets and let a closely monitored government entity run the fabs

Intel’s factories are literally 2 hours away from the TSMC facility. There are several other chip makers near to Intel, and staff tends to shift around between these, and I believe that will continue. I do not know what TSMC is doing for a talent pool, though I also heard they are not staffing the Arizona facility with high end engineering. That will stay in Taiwan, and this plant will be focused on production.
