Geopolitical considerations aside, how is tech development on big projects like AEGIS (or, the other counterexample is how the air forces develop things like the JSF systems electronics, airborne command and control systems/AWACS, etc)

You can do toe to toe best of the best speeds and feeds... But I think the broader strategic outlook is: yes, the M1 loses on a few benchmarks, but the fact that it gets ballpark to some monster rig multiple times in price and power - is th

could these be done on-device, esp since they built in all that Secure Enclave crytographic stuff, vs in the cloud? At least partially? I mean having it phone home to the authentication server every time seems laborious vs. say, downloadin

Would the significant of Intel's current x86 bread and butter (core 2 duo line and descendants) being essentially a side project of their Israeli Labs, while their main design efforts, i.e. Itanium,etc, floundered a decade ago be an ea

I am just a interested observer - I remember the issue w/ the old viral vectors were concern re longevity of the cells, i.e. the optogenetically active ones you could do experiments on for several weeks, but then they'd poop out a

Cook was also running Apple ops for a decade before being CEO. It's not like he appeared out of nowhere. One can argue Apple's design chops and freedom to innovate were because of Cook, who cleaned up all the business and ops sh

I'm reminded of the joke between the cardiologist and immunologist...but the story of MS therapies goes hand in hand with the revolution in molecular biology - and by extension, immunology. https://twitter.com/nachrista

In contrast to the mice, which I've never really felt comfortable using, the Apple Trackpad has been one of the best input devices I have ever owned. Perhaps benefitting from all the UI/UX research into laptop inputs, swipes and
