A long article from the New Yorker magazine about the semiconductor industry. A great read and worth seeking out. Books have been written about this over the decades but this is a very good modern take. If you get bored on the technical details, hang in there. The story is going someplace. There is also an audio version linked on the page, but it requires a subscription too. It may be available elsewhere.
