That's only part of the TSMC story. Check out references 82-87 here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIPS_and_Science_Ac...

It was primarily TSMC's fault, not the Act. Though I can attest to the cultural differences between Taiwan and US engineering and business. I met my wife in Taiwan while I was working at our facility there (she was an OCW there). The differences were striking, and it was difficult to get them to do things how we wanted/needed. Plus allegations of wage theft and other stuff (TSMC in Arizona, not our company's facility to the best of my knowledge).

Yes, women are more numerous in bio-related sciences. Again, dunno why. But they are.

It's good to know that they are making strides. They certainly can do the work, but for whatever reason (likely cultural), they tend not to try to get the training/education. That is less prevalent in other cultures (e.g. Chinese or Indian), which is why I speculate there is something about our culture that discourages them from going into some fields.
