TSMC's 5 nm node is on track for high volume in Q2 2020[1]. They also have the announced 6 nm which they expect most clients to transition to[2]. If Intel's 10 nm is equivalent to TSMC's 7 nm then their 6 nm should be noticeably better even before 5 nm starts shipping.
> Even at 20x the failure rate, flying in a Max -- even with an unmodified MCAS -- is still vastly safer than driving on a per-distance-travelled basis.
I don't think people are making the comparison of Max vs driving. They are making the comparison of Max vs other air planes.
With lists notable people from cities it's gets vague whether to include people who were born but not raised there, raise but not born there, people who moved there as adults, etc.
The poorer outcomes aren't due to the quality of US healthcare but differences in the people of the US. The US is bigger than most countries so people need to drive more and thus are more likely to get into car accidents. The opioid crisis has caused the US life expectancy to decrease but that has nothing to do with the quality of hospitals. Better hospitals and medicine don't prevent people exercising less, eating more fast food, etc.
