Samsung plans to more than double its total semiconductor investment in Texas to roughly $44 billion
“Plans” are just an idea. There’s nothing to get hopeful or excited about until contracts are signed and ground is broken.
Even then. I won’t be excited until any of these supposed foundries are actually producing chips.
Building the infrastructure is a huge expense. A lot of that is getting paid when they start to break ground. That doesn’t mean things can’t fall through, but most of the time when land is purchased and they start building on it, things will complete.

Lol I’m so sorry you had to go through all those steps just for “They’ve increased the budget and this is what they’re doing.”
Huh. You’d think they need a reliable power supply. Is that what the money is for?
