Wow, the store has Christmas ornaments, a Rubik's cube, another lego set and lots of swag. Not what I expected ...
Never underestimate the value of being the sales exec to hand out free merch with every multimillion-dollar purchase.

How they achieve that using Lego is beyond me.

Sorry yes that last part was a joke :-)

This is intended to be the employee store. it isn't strictly on the internal domain for convenience, but it definitely isn't targeted to non-employees.

#25I like how it has a suitably ASML price as well.

Well you can produce’s chips with a 2.9 times higher transistor density. So it’s a steal!

It is crazy that it had to be explained and you feel the need to apologize for it.

Retail US$ prices for Lego-branded kits are usually about $0.10 per piece. So I would expect this kit would cost about $85 if Lego were selling it, implying a +170% premium.

Thank you - that's humour though isn't it? I think the best jokes start with a moment of confusion which is resolved by sudden understanding, but sometimes that understanding never arrives and then the joke doesn't land - that's partly due to the listener and partly due to the person telling the joke.

They used a 3nm process node[1] to squeeze this machine into Lego-sized blocks.
