Most petrol family cars are less than 1500 kg in Europe. Americans are used to overweight cars and that's spreading to here too. Though it's often a problem since most city parking spots are smaller than huge cars like Tesla model

Eastern Europe is very different. Years of eastern-block, and the poverty afterwards does that to you.

We had metal standards way after the great depression, till 1971. Bretton Woods system made USD an international reserve currency, but its convertibility to gold was guaranteed. In 1971 US gov decided to not guarantee that anymore, because

oh this board would not do that. they just want to cannibalize intel.

Dutch are extremely business friendly with streamlined simple bureaucracy but they won't tolerate tax evasion. The correct approach would be to negotiate with the tax service.

Luckily they are spinning off the FPGA business to be Altera again

5nm will never be that cheap. The performance benefit would be easily 2x or more though.

EU chip production is negligible, the change rate is positive but again negligible (single 16nm fab). US has some spending but rely heavily on Intel. That says a lot. So, it's Taiwan and Korea. Though TSMC and Samsung are scaling up ca

this 1 study says so? I bet you can find a study claiming the exact opposite.

It would be a real time OS running it for sure. Which one I don't know.

yeah, share as much as possible. anything new comes with an extra cost which needs to justify itself woth returns. Also using old and already amortized tech is another option. Dacia mastered this art in the recent past.

Apple has ToF lidar for face recognition for years now. It's a matter of spec. Similar style single chip lidar for automotive is in engineering sampling phase now [1]. Price remains to be seen but anything sub 1k would be a no-brainer

I don't thik they're produced with the same process as CMOS, but I bet some photolithography is involved.

by bgnn 2y ago
Excellent idea. I'm sure with so high stakes people will try every possible photoresist for that and find one like what you described.

Why not interpolate the missing data points with similar patients data? This must be about the confidence of the approach. Maybe interpolation would be overconfident too.

that's bullshit. vacuum tubes are used in spacecraft by NASA too. it's likely they are still used. they don't pop in vacuum. plus they're more radiation resistant thwn transistors.

That's true. The impact on design is reverse of the post I replied to though. Since we got more density, we had more compute available to automate more, which made it economically viable. Every generation had enough compute to design t

No I get it. The words we use to describe things change over time with what we are exposed to. Starlink made satellites sexy again.

by bgnn 2y ago
What you are describing is a satellite.

That's wrong. Chip design and Moore's law have nothing to do with each other.

why do you think that?

by bgnn 2y ago
Isn't it a similar case with the American busses? They are crap because they're protected? Similar with Boeing too.

Credit cards cost like 30$ a month and come with max 2500$ per month limit in the Netherlands. For payments above that amount you need to transferonry from your bank account to the credit card. It's not accepted at 95% of the shops bec

Exactly this! Not only Visa, now we have Google Pay or Apple Pay for NFC on our phones. Banks e ded up using these instead of implementing their own NFC apps. All my data is at Visa, Mastercard and Google..

Audio ADCs are incredibly small and the digital functionality needed isn't much for this. One can fit everything in a sub mm2 IC I think. Minus the antenna.

In the Netherlands we have the touring club (ANWB) app which shows all the chargers, their current status, all the parking places and petrol stations including the actual prices. Oh it also shows real time traffic and provides roadside help

Cool. Reminds me of a course project I did 12 years ago (bacholers..) on an FPGA [1]. I used the ADC on the FPGA board to read the line input audio signal, implemted a VGA driver and a VU meter, implemented a 32-bin FFT to create the VU Met

a cheap FPGA kit is the best way to start learning IMHO. Xilinx (now AMD) and Altera (now Intel) free tools are quite good.
