     @alcinnz @GreenSkyOverMe Nothing new in that statement but the conclusion drawn in that article, they are new (to me). 🤔

     @alcinnz Things like Moore's law are laws of economics. No such economic law survives its first contact with the laws of physics.

     Just as infinite growth on a finite planet is clashing with physics with the results manifesting as natural disasters and the sixth mass extinction.

     @njoseph Yeah, & McGovern didn't mention Amdahl's law: There's only so much use we can get out of hardware concurrency before its counteracted by coordination costs.
