it works quite good. Used it in my previous gig. All documentstion and design libraries of the company (of 100+ people) were in Perforce. Everything was on AWS. It's a joy to browse the design library and do code reviews with Swarm as

Why then these amounts don't flow to chip design/production sector except Nvidia is beyond me.

Who is getting value though? That should be easy to answer yet there's no clear answer yet.

They have to do that to stay in fab business. Their design business is gonna be sold out I think, like HP/Agilent.

my car consumes 5% more with AC on. it's a 2002 Mazda. So, I don't believe 25% number.

won't happen for such a complicated process like 40nm. The design tooling itself would cost 100s of k$.

by bgnn 2y ago
well, true, but this doesn't guarantee a node to stay in production. fabs sometimes shut down a node to use the equipment and space for another node with more demand. also, sone of these machines from 80s and 90s are simply old and it&

What's also insane is the mitochondria are evolved from proteobacteria.

by bgnn 2y ago
This is kind of normal in the industry too. Some nodes are skipped by the fabs, some are skipped by the customers even (TSMC 20nm, 7nm etc). If there's not much customer traction why bother.

I don't invest in stocks so this might be a stupid question: I get that Intel is undervalued now. If things go right it should have a significant premium over its current value. But doesn't that also depend on the rest of the semi

I gather you didn't check the lecture out. Yeah, this is hacker news.

One cannot intuitively think about higher than 3 dimensions. Even for most their intuition is often wrong in 3D space. It's quite accurate for 1D and 2D. Richard Hamming has a whole section lecture to make everyone realize precisely th

That sounds indeed not right. Here in the Netherlands the renters have the right, but mortgage holders do not. I was renting a place the owner had mortgage. For some reason the bank wanted to sale the place but couldn't evict me. Since

Yeah their offerings are not good on CS and IT. They have couple of good conference and journals in electronics. The member discounted rates are not that attractive though, and if your institution/company is paying, who cares? The real

It works like: customer gets an order number and puts this on the description of the bank transfer. This is parsed by the accounting SW coupled to this bank account, and voila! Most banks charge some amount per transaction on commercial acc

This! The biggest cost is in the opto-electric transition parts. The mechanical alignment needs to be precise, it needs to have a laser, a laser driver (most likely VCSEL), and a photodiode with a transimpedance amplifier. It's expensi

Massive 3-d parallelism is underrated. Natural neural systems evolved to deal with special cases that require very fast response time via local reflexes which are trained very slowly. They are still in millisecond range. All the computation

That's the traditional course of action. As long as it's financially sound they will at least try it. At that point making smaller patterns might not be the biggest issue. Vias are becoming s bottleneck and proven to be hard to sc

I don't think they will last that long. TSMC could bring 7nm, 5nm and 3nm to market because Apple just straight out funded these processes with agreements to buy the capacity exclusively for the first year or so. Even Nvidia couldn&#x2

The hope is these machines will reduce the number of steps to produce advanced chips (<3nm logic and DRAM), and hopefully the time and money cost of production will be lower compated to the current lithography techniques. A lot of people

This is the first time I'm hearing about it. It seems here it's only prescribed to type 2 diabetes partients and doctors are strictly prohibited from prescribing it for weight loss.

Oh Nokia is a good example. It's mainly a network infrastructure company now, similar to Cisco, Juniper and Huawei. It's not on the news like Intel but it's dying a similar death. The stories I hear from friends working there

AFAIK Intel went into modem business with Infineon wireless acquisition at 2015, which was doing fine but dold due to global financial crisis. Intel, as always it does with acquisitions, turned this acquired business into a money pit. They
