  it’s complicated. afaik asml has agreements with the us govt, and cross licensing with american companies. also, asml only makes lithography tools, there’s a LOT more to making semiconductors than just exposing patterns. and a few of the biggest vendors like kla and amat are american. kla in particular is essentially a monopoly in the metrology space.

  afaik, risc and cisc are pretty much the same anymore. x86, risc v and arm all have bloated instructions sets, and they all decode to risc microcode under the hood anyways.

  lol those are dram chips in the stock photo.

  (more risc v investment away from the us is a good thing though!)
