Seems like the tides have turned on this one, with Intel stealing Qualcomm’s breadwinner modem business, thanks to the help of Apple of course. It’s funny how things can change so quickly.

I got to talk with Sacha in person after this lecture, and it’s amazing to realize just how far ahead Waymo currently is against the rest of the competition. Really looking forward to 2018 and seeing commercial public release finally happen

Man, this is some really scary stuff. Intel seriously needs to up their game because AMD is going to destroy in 2018 if they don’t. Like it’s not even a joke anymore. How does a multi billion dollar corporation let something so huge like th

I’ve been watching Adored for a while now actually. Yes, both channels have been outputting consistently good videos since the beginning. If you liked NerdTech, you 100% will enjoy Adored’s style of content.

Yeah, Tesla is probably somewhat overvalued right now, but what were you thinking of doing? Investing in BMW or Ford instead for their breathtaking and innovative self-driving electric cars? Please, give me a break. Those companies are stag

Isn't Japan notorious for being known as paying some of the lowest software engineering salaries in the world? Pretty sure it's even worse than Europe comparatively. I doubt Toyota would be very successful in enticing to people to
