"Moore's Law" purports that there is more computer over time.

"Sam's Law" purports that we asymptote to have a consistent amount of computer; or, we have the same amount of computer over time.

"Leslie's Law" purports that we peak and then start to decrease; or, we eventually have less computer over time.

We might be living in Sam's world or even Leslie's world.

"Moore's Law" thrives under socialism.

"Sam's Law" exists under neoliberalism.

"Leslie's Law" is the result of fascism.

I mean, you just made that up but sure.

China is essentially a pinko branded fascist state and they continue to develop better processors

> China is essentially a pinko branded fascist

Sorry, China is a unitary communist state. Fascism and communism are the opposite. Both have state control but the fascist control is from the corporations.

The reason China has better chips is because they have a form of socialism

Don't be a propagandist regurgitating propagandists ideas, it does nothing for intelligent conversation.
