Later, Intel’s Sailesh Kottapalli, Senior Architecture Fellow, and Mandy Mock, VP and GM of Product Engineering Systems, join the Insiders to help set the record straight on Moore’s law. To be fair, the number of transistors keeps increasing at a rate that’s fairly consistent with Gordon Moore’s original projections, it’s actually some of the ancillary benefits that we’ve come to expect from that transistor scaling that aren’t keeping pace. So, is it fair to say it’s dead? And, maybe more importantly, should anyone even care?

Finally, in this week’s Tech Market Madness, Perry Cohen tries to make sense of “the edge” with Matt Trifiro of Vapor O and Jacob Smith of Equinix, who co-chaired the LF Edge’s 2021 “State of the Edge” report. All these years later, do we have a definitive answer to the question, “What is the IoT edge?” And, if we can agree on something, how will it reach critical mass? Here’s a hint: Open source.
