A Historical Perspective on Semiconductors and Moore's Law

(October 21, 2009) Intel Corporation legend, former CEO, and Chairman of the Board Craig Barrett discusses his personal career path from a Stanford Associate Professor, to Silicon Valley consultant, to a 35-year career inside one of the globe's most prominent players in technology. His talk concentrates on Moore's Law and the myriad factors in place to ensure its continued progeny.

Moore's law, another interesting topic for me.

We can never find justice at the hands of corrupt judges. (See YouTube videos) Judge to Judge on Illegal Payments to Judges / Evil Triangle of Court Corruption / Richard Fine / Dr Shirley Moore /SBX 211. The fight to end this title wave of corruption in our country must start with the corrupt judges. We can not bring evidence of corruption to corrupt judges. Los Angeles Superior Court judges are illegally and unconstitutionally taking 50,000.00 each for a total of 23 million per year.

It's funny that in "normal" science, a "law" is based on observed phenomena, for which the conclusion is reached in any and every test possible. In computer science, apparently, the pressure to keep the "law" real, is such that the phenomena is manipulated to make it so. Moore's Law is not a "law" but a hypothesis.
