That's the limiting factor.

Yeah, China would be outputting vast numbers of chips at two or three nanometers.

No.

The ASML ban has been in place for a while.

But I think China's going to start making pretty compelling chips in three or four years.

Would you consider making the ASML machines?

I don't know yet is the right answer.

So it's just that to produce at high volume and to reach large volume in, say, 36 months to match the rocket payload to orbit.

So if we're doing a million tons to orbit and like, let's say, I don't know,

three or four years from now, something like that.

And we're doing 100 kilowatts per ton.

So that means we need at least 100 gigawatts per year of solar.

And we'll need an equivalent amount of chips to, you know, you need 100 gigawatts worth of chips.

You've got to match these things.

The master over the power generation and the chips.

And

I'd say my biggest concern actually is memory.

So I think the path to creating logic chips is more obvious than the path to having sufficient memory to support logic chips.

That's why you see DDR prices going ballistic in these memes about like, you know, you're marooned on a desert island.

You write, help me on the sand.
