Moore's law confounded the electronic world
editComputers were in the size of a refrigerator not this much compact and efficient. Gordon Moore the smart engineer predicted that based on the industry on industry developments semiconductors get to new models every two years. Read more on the following link:

Hyperlink decluttering
editThere are way too many links. If someone is on this page, they know what Observingis. It makes it difficult to read this page without getting distracted (especially with ADHD). Weirdojo1 (talk) 22:01, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
Should the graph be expanded?
editIf "Moore's Law" was observed and speculated in 1965, shouldn't the graph show data from prior to 1965 too? I would have added data myself, but don't know how. 74.74.207.246 (talk) 11:24, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
First paragraph
editAs of 2023 sep, the first paragraph reads: "Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years. Moore's law is an observation and projection of a historical trend. Rather than a law of physics, it is an empirical relationship linked to gains from experience in production."
The last word is the key to understanding what's meant. This should appear earlier in the paragraph for good, quick comprehension.
As it stands, one gets the impression that the transistors in your device are breeding or something. This whole idea is about what's going on in MANUFACTURING. 184.96.226.106 (talk) 14:39, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
- The paper he wrote wasn't even primarily about transistors. The word is only mentioned twice. More emphasis should be put on what he actually was saying, and less on what people think he was saying since "Moore's law" has been misused a lot since he wrote on the topic in the sixties.
