Re:TSMC to build second Japan chip factory, raising investme... by kredd on Wednesday February 07, 2024 @09:19AM (#39288849)
It’s going AFAIK, but had a bunch of mishaps and talent/labour shortage, so it’s going slower. I’m curious how big its output is going to be, compared to the one that’s supposed to start producing chips in 2024 in Japan.

Just a bit disheartening timeline wise. It took Japanese ~3 years (2021-2024) from the announcement to production, versus ~5+ (2020-2025 TBD) for North American factory. I hope we figure out the logistics and have it easier for the second factory though!
