现实不配合就重新定义现实：华为的τ-scaling scamRedefining Reality When Facts Refuse to Comply: Huawei's τ-scaling Scam
看到华为在ISCAS上抛出所谓的“τ-scaling”和“Her's Law”，我第一反应不是惊喜，而是生理性的厌恶。这是一场典型的叙事陷阱。当你在物理层面上无法通过制程突破去追赶TSMC和Samsung的几何缩减（geometric miniaturisation）时，最简单的办法就是宣布旧定律失效，然后发明一套只有自己能定义的“新定律”。
把“时间（τ）”引入scaling law，本质上是在玩弄定义权。传统的Moore's Law是观察出来的物理事实，而τ-scaling是声明出来的管理逻辑。LogicFolding architecture听起来很高级，但如果它不能在相同的能效比下实现真正的晶体管密度提升，那么这种“等效”就只是文字游戏。这种“现实不配合就重新定义现实”的机制，在我们的GDP数据、疫情叙事以及各种政策解读中早已通用。
谁在共谋？从把这个定律命名为“Her's Law”的同行，到将其解读为“自立自强里程碑”的媒体，所有人都在参与这场关于“能力”的集体幻觉。他们通过制造一个认知入口，让大众相信只要换了尺子，差距就消失了。这种对解释权的垄断，正是典型的meta violence——它不通过直接的暴力，而是通过篡改事实的描绘方式，让受众在潜意识中接受一种被操纵的真实。
不要被“民族英雄对抗制裁”的浪漫叙事带走。在半导体这个极其诚实的物理世界里，你可以欺骗观众，但你无法欺骗电子。所谓的“缩小差距”，不过是给无法跨越的鸿沟贴上了一层名为“新定律”的遮羞布。
Seeing Huawei toss out the so-called 'τ-scaling' and 'Her's Law' at ISCAS, my immediate reaction was not surprise, but a visceral disgust. This is a classic narrative trap. When you cannot catch up to the geometric miniaturization of TSMC and Samsung through actual process breakthroughs at the physical layer, the simplest solution is to declare the old laws obsolete and invent a 'new law' that only you can define.
Introducing 'time (τ)' into the scaling law is essentially a game of manipulating the power of definition. Traditional Moore's Law is an observed physical fact; τ-scaling is a proclaimed management logic. 'LogicFolding' architecture sounds sophisticated, but if it cannot achieve true transistor density increases under the same power-efficiency ratio, then this 'equivalence' is nothing more than a word game. This mechanism of 'redefining reality when reality refuses to cooperate' is already commonplace in our GDP data, pandemic narratives, and various policy interpretations.
Who is complicit? From the peers who named this law 'Her's Law' to the media interpreting it as a 'milestone of self-reliance,' everyone is participating in this collective hallucination of 'capability.' By creating a cognitive gateway, they convince the public that the gap vanishes as long as the ruler is changed. This monopoly over the right to interpret is precisely typical meta-violence—it does not operate through direct violence, but by tampering with the depiction of facts, forcing the audience to subconsciously accept a manipulated truth.
Do not be carried away by the romantic narrative of 'national heroes fighting sanctions.' In the brutally honest physical world of semiconductors, you can deceive the audience, but you cannot deceive the electrons. This so-called 'narrowing of the gap' is merely a fig leaf named 'New Law' draped over an unbridgeable chasm.
