> Apart from that, we've renamed cacheTime to gcTime to better reflect what it is doing

Does it though? Maybe it's super obvious to more experienced users, but now I need to read the docs to find out what "gc" stands for. Not a big deal, just seems like an unnecessary abbreviation, so I'm curious as to what the reasoning is.

In a similar vein, "Chip War" by Chris Miller is a more recent look at this. Not at all as dry as I expected it to be, surprisingly gripping for someone who didn't previously know much about this. It also provides a lot of historical context for the recent news of TSMC setting up factories in the US and Germany.
