### Comment:
Were they really purposely delaying their 10 nm because they were coasting though? I thought they were working on it the whole time but just kept having issues and yields were never high enough.

### REPLY:
ironically the fact that Intel has its own fab became a showstopper since they had more issues than resources could/can support. TSMC on the other hand applied learnings from 5-10 customer lines and developed new nodes steadily. secondly, Intel's hardcore stance on quality over cost seems to have started backfiring since consumers are more than willing to upgrade electronics every 3-5 years
