In 1965 Gordon Moore, the founder of Intel, predicted that the number of components that could fit on a microchip would double every year for the next decade. Moore revised his prediction in 1975 to a doubling of components every two years - a prophecy that remained true for another four decades.  The ramifications on the world of technology and, by extension, society itself of what is now known as ‘Moore’s Law’ have proven immeasurable. The doubling of transistors - semi-conductor devices that switch electronic signals and power - meant that technology would become exponentially more powerful, smaller and cheaper.  But over the past few years, Moore’s Law has begun to reach its natural end as we squeeze every nanometer of advancement out of silicon chips. Transistors are now getting too small to manufacture efficiently. Intel itself delayed the release of its 10 nanometer - or a millionth of a millimeter - chip in 2016 to earlier this year, as it … [Read more...] about How the end of Moore’s Law will usher in a new era in computing

A Tory election victory will unleash years of pent-up spending but a tight Brexit deadline will limit options Here comes the Boris bounce. Stock markets and the economy are likely to surge the other side of the election, but don’t celebrate too soon; hardline Brexiteers may not like what such an uplift implies. It is still possible to argue about the size, but barring a major upset over the next six days, some sort of a Boris Johnson majority already looks baked in. A number of positive economic effects flow from this result. First, and perhaps most importantly, it removes the threat of an economically destructive Corbyn government, together with the menace of higher corporation tax and the... … [Read more...] about The ‘Boris bounce’ is coming – but this conjuring trick will leave many Brexiteers disappointed
