Fun Fact: A tweet is actually 160 characters, but the first 20 are automatically reserved for an internally-used user ID. This looks like a job for Integer!

What if your targeted market is IT professionals?
Then you have a failed business model since IT professionals, as a rule, have no budget.

I'm pretty sure those don't exist. Which is why, from any relative frame of reference, the top speed really is c. You can't go c+1 mm/year in any frame of reference, let alone 2c.

Before people criticize "gopddamned", I'd like to point out that this is a typo. Writing "your" instead of "you're", on the other hand, is not a typo.

The units ARE right. The WAFERs will be 450mm. Today they are 300mm.
Or 200mm, or 150mm... It really quite depends on the manufacturing equipment in the fab and the target market for the devices (not everything manufactured on a wafer is a "chip"). Rumors of 200mm's demise have been quite premature.

Are there any jobs for "industry specific" virtual assistants? I could see a market for niche (aerospace, research science, etc.) industries where someone with extensive industry experience would be extremely handy. Rather than the lowest cheap dude out of India, how about a research student out of Boston? Is there a market for that kind of thing? How would one find such a job?
Are you asking about job openings for virtual assistants?

Considering most people can't drive in just 2D any attempt to become airborne will fail.
Flying cars are a tried and failed concept.
I tried driving in 2D once, but I got a sense that I wasn't actually going anywhere.
