   I would argue probably not. GaN has a higher bandgap voltage (3eV iirc... 1eV for Silicon), which means a CPU would need to be run at a higher voltage. As a quick rule of thumb for huge transistor count ICs: Power (heat) = freq*Voltage^2 I

   This has always been the case, regardless of any Tesla involvement. This just makes the correlation between safe driving and lower cost a little less abstract. It will be interesting to see how this develops. Will they begin selling this da

   It probably is contextual, no? For example: I would think it's fun little icebreaker if you are applying for a position making cute iOS games. However if you are applying for a position developing power-plant control systems it's
