So now that Moore's law is dead, how will it affect the economy? Doesn't a huge part of our economy depend on it?
I'm really worried about this
> Hurr Moore's law isn't dead
Yes it is. Educate yourself

What the actual fuck are you talking about?

The economy already invented planned obsolescence, your hardware will slow down coincidentially at the same time when the next iteration of your hardware comes out.

This already happens to iPhone users.

There never was a "Moore's Law".
Intel's Gordon Moore once made the observation that chip density doubled every 18 months. The tech media latched on to this and completely failed to understand its significance.
There is no Law. It's just the rate at which techniques in use in the '60s were developing. Extrapolating that to infinity is idiotic.
BTW: The observation is no longer valid for current manufacturing processes.
The one big thing that has limited processor development in the past 20 years is the failure to produce reliable, cheap CPUs with clock speeds greater than 4GHz.

As opposed the the Android method where your phone languishes on the version of Android it was manufactured with. If you want the new stuff you must upgrade your hardware.
Of course, this is simple because Android is FREE.

Except it doesn't. Custom ROMs friend.

How many of the users though know what those are, know how to install them and have one available for their device that works fully?
>>61581814
All my friends and family.

Great sample size. The general population doesn't know about them nor care.

That's the manufacturer's fault. My Asus is always on top of updates.

The next advances will probably be in greater efficiency at the current clock speeds since lower power usage is very attractive for servers.
