thanks for pointing that out, interesting insights in that article, but wow that was the worst piece of writing I had to endure in a long time. It's amazing how you can say so little with so much text.

Yeeeaaaahhhhh, I usually enjoy Virginia Heffernan's writing, but this piece was something else. Too dreamy and poetic for most of it. Like, I get that you metaphorically stared God in the face considering the nano-tech going on in TSMC's fabs and that you want to convey a sense of absolute awe... but it gets tiring really fast
