International sactions against Russia failing

[Notably0ffbeat]

I do find it pretty fascinating that the sanctions let to the development of Russian cpu designs. They actually have came along way since the sanctions started. Their first chip was equivalent of a Pentium era cpu while there latest design is now only about 10 years behind competition performance wise.

Russia like the rest of the world still needs the cpu to be manufactured elsewhere. Taiwan being the major chip manufacturer. Still waiting for the war of the chips to start, as computations are now a resource highly in demand and few places in the world are capable of providing it.
