Wharfie, We'll find out in '35. I can already see it now. Even the article that you posted shows a rate of increase of just 4 percentage points per year, from 2% to 22% over five years.

Which of course is also well behind the curve. The truth is that 2035 is a completely made-up number. It's simply something to aim for, not something that has any reasonable chance of success. I've seen managers (on both sides of the hierarchy, both from below and from above) who do things like that. They come up with a completely made up timeline, then wait until the end before informing upper management that the goal cannot be reached. I don't know about other industries, but here in semiconductors, that'll never fly.
