CENTCOM claimed the F-35 made it made it back to base, but right after the hit happened, they sent out a Chinook to run search patterns in the area. Additionally, the pilot was treated for shrapnel wounds. As he's at the front of the p

Look at the super-precise strike on the E-3 sentry that we have pictures of. We know at least one other was hit. If Iran can do this with AWACS, they can do even more with the hundreds of fighter jets in Israeli and US bases (it's much

MANPADS have a range of around 4 miles. Most soldiers aren't carrying around armed MANPADS. They have to fetch the MANPADS, arm it, aim, and fire all before the jet dumps its load and flares before bailing out. Because of this, MANPADS

The videos we've seen match up with what we've seen on the ground. They are all running a custom software we haven't seen elsewhere and don't seem to be traditional MANPADS in any way. We know Iran is driving around bong

Adding 2 frequency ranges is more expensive. If you're going to choose just one, you should choose the one with the greatest backward compatibility.

Historically, around 60% of all astronauts were from the military which is a high-risk occupation. In the 50s, there was something like a handful of test pilots dying every single month. A subset of the ones who survived became the first as

Can you back this up with legal precedence? To my knowledge, nothing of the sort has been ruled by the courts. Additionally, this raises another big issue. A few years ago, a couple guys used software (what you could argue was a primitive A

Can you keep that GPU 100% saturated at least 16 hours per day every day of the week? If not, you aren't breaking even.

Demand is relative. How many Claude tokens would you buy if they had a 10x price hike? The market has achieved it's current saturation level with loss-leader prices that remind me of the Chinese bike share bubble[0]. Once those prices

Validating a core to server standards takes significantly longer. V4 cores should be out this year using X925 and C1 Ultra-based V5 will probably be 2027-2028. I suspect that X4 is already fast enough to beat EPYC in per-core performance wh

Only one ATC isn't the issue here. The emergency vehicle was told to stop and did not. Even a dozen ATC wouldn't have helped in that case.

Maybe they were talking about the truck going 24mph, but the plane is clearly going WAY faster than that. I'm not completely sure but it seems like the runway entry lights are red which very clearly indicates the runway is in use. They

It seems like PC makers just don't want to invest in quality trackpads. It's criminal that my now almost decade-old Pixelbook still has a better trackpad than 99% of PCs (including ones that cost way more money).

SIMD workloads on CPU tend to be bursty. If your workload is all SIMD with few other instructions or branches, it's almost certainly going to be faster on a GPU or SME co-processor. If there's space between the SIMD instructions,

This core was released in the MediaTek 9400 in October 2024 some 16 months ago. The successor of x925 is C1 Ultra and even that was released 6 months ago in September 2025 with the MediaTek 9500 and GeekerWan even has a phone review they di

Wider SIMD is a solution in search of a problem in most cases. If your code can go wide and has few branches (uses SIMD basically every cycle), either a GPU or matrix co-processor will handily beat the performance of several CPU cores all r

I'm pretty sure someone already compiled Linux to asm.js a few years ago. As asm.js is/was a subset of JS, you could say it's already been done. In theory, you could continue work from there in JS. https://medium.c
