The computer had 2048 words of erasable magnetic-core memory and 36,864 words of read-only core rope memory. Both had cycle times of 11.72 microseconds. The memory word length was 16 bits: 15 bits of data and one odd-parity bit. The CPU-internal 16-bit word format was 14 bits of data, one overflow bit, and one sign bit (ones' complement representation). [1]
The best outcome for plastics, would be to bury them very deep (like nuclear waste), where they could eventually become some new oil like substance. No carbon escape.
Or when economics of fabricating such structures just aren't worth it.
Moores ‘law’ is a human driven law.
Computing is basically the absolute center of our society.
As long as our civilization exists we will spend massive resources on this.
Thus as long as it’s physically possible we’ll have progress.
Three semi manufacturers are telling their investors they'll be at 2nm (or something) in late 2024 or 2025. So no, Moore's law has not seen its end, despite ~40 years of predictions to the contrary.
