why does one need to take on ASML? I had to look it up, semiconductors.

ASML market cap is ~500B. Meta market cap is ~1.5T.

i'm no facebook fan but it was started by a dude in a dorm room.

So I think saying "well those times are gone now" is defeatist.

(fwiw i personally have no interest in building a trillion dollar company from my basement, just talking philosophy here)

If we're going to be like that, we should go for Nvidia. Their market cap is currently ~4T.

I can see that going very well.
