Are you sure you want to know?

    By Jack Grant

I've had more than one person ask me "What exactly is it that you do for a living, anyway?"

An article at CNET News describes the technology I work on. It is in the context of what Intel is planning, but the entire semiconductor industry is working on similar technology as Intel so it applies to my work as well. It's getting more and more difficult to make the devices that go into IC chips faster and more efficient, but it's my job all the same.

Yes, well, that was very informative, but I can't say I understood every word...

However, I continue to be impressed.

I have always wanted to ask, but have not as I felt it may be too intrusive. Thanks for the Post!

Random Fate - latest posts

We don't handle randomness well.
   -Dr. Lucy Jones


Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.

What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
   -Dandemis

Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
