what if humans forgot how to make CPUs?

From LaurieWired.

What happens if we can’t make another CPU…ever?

What fails first? How long would datacenters last? Does the Internet start to fracture?

Of course, it’s a hypothetical thought experiment. But it’s interesting to think what chips will stand the test of time, and which might fail sooner than you think!

Here are the other channels I mentioned, take a look:

@jeriellsworth made microchips at home, and is an excellent engineer + teacher, go check her out!

@KazeN64 is doing wild optimizations with N64 hardware:
