It's also kind of ironic that a site whose whole premise is to preserve pages forever, whether the people involved like it or not, is seeking to take down another site because they are involved and don't like it. Live by the sword

Multi-pigment panels exist but in practice nearly all color e-readers still use the filter-based panels, because they are so much cheaper. There are zero Kindle or Kobo models with the multi-pigment technology.

The Pebble display isn't e-ink, or unique amongst watches, it's an off-the-shelf MIP LCD from Sharp. You can get the same thing in watches from Garmin, Coros, Polar, Suunto, Casio and probably more.

The underlying world representation is chunky voxels, but they get triangulated into meshes for rendering. Unlike say, Teardown, which renders voxels directly. Minecraft's non-world entities like players and enemies aren't voxels

Throttling was mainly an issue with AVX512, which is twice the width of AVX2, and only really on the early Skylake (2015) implementation. From your own source Ice Lake (2019) barely flinches and Rocket Lake (2021) doesn't proactively d

ARMs Neoverse IP does support SVE, so it's at least already relevant in cloud applications. Apparently AWS Graviton3 had 256bit SVE, but Graviton4 regressed back to 128bit SVE for some reason? https://ashvardanian.com/p

SVE was supposed to be the next step for ARM SIMD, but they went all-in on runtime variable width vectors and that paradigm is still really struggling to get any traction on the software side. RISC-V did the same thing with RVV, for better

That's apparent enough from the fact that you don't need a jailbreak exploit to boot non-Apple-signed kernels on a Mac, unlike iPads with exactly the same silicon. They are intentionally configured differently.
