Notable inhabitants
gollark: Intel's 7nm is said to be (meant to be) similar to other companies' 5nm, at least.
gollark: They have 10nm Ice Lake mobile CPUs, at least.
gollark: They still haven't. So the best thing *shipping* is Ice Lake, which had better IPC but is also on their not-very-good 10nm process and has bad clocks, making it roughly as good as 14nm ones with worse architectures.
gollark: They added more cores, but Intel don't really have much better architectures. Unless they released Tiger Lake. I should check.
gollark: Sandy Bridge was 2011, and Intel is widely regarded as having not really done much since then until pretty recently.
