    Another Semiconductor Player Bites the Dust: Chinese HSMC Shutters Operations

    Ohhh Come on! you don't need statistics. Tesla was tate backed, Ford was state supported, Crysler was state supported, Apple was state supported. How much support they received depends on the relative historical context. In the past the public intervention was much more pervasive and under the...

    Another Semiconductor Player Bites the Dust: Chinese HSMC Shutters Operations

    Nearly every big private enterprise startup was backed by government somehow. Anywhere in the world. Pretty standard practice. Some fail, some thrive.

    Your PC ATM

    Of course I don't! I hate water reservoirs. I spend two hours in the bathroom to get all bubbles out to have a completely reservoir free loop. The car cooling liquid does not evaporate too much. The next is a nice build i made for one of my buddies: It has two front usb 3.0 and 1 front...

    Microsoft's New Windows Update Allows GPU Selection According to Workload

    It would be nice to expand support to be able to choose between two different dedicated graphics cards in the system. If a game or application works better with AMD rather than NVIDIA, for example.

    AMD Processors No Longer Crippled with Latest MATLAB MKL Update

    In the end, think about this, big companies that need to keep their advantage position use practices that resemble how mafia works. You pay the ones that can give you an advantage over competition, and you cripple the competition at the same time using money as a tool to keep your advantage...

    Apple ARM Based MacBooks and iMacs to come in 2021

    Yes, that's why the hegemonic position is usually shared by two entities that can thus try to do cartels. Or enterprises are split into two or more different entities (that again will try to do cartel and so on and so forth). By the time the law is enacted the damage has already been done and...

    Apple ARM Based MacBooks and iMacs to come in 2021

    I think it's every enterprise's innate predatory instinct to try to kill every single of the other potentially competing enterprises, or inglobate them. Once you start having an egemonic position in the market it's a spontaneous behaviour.

    Apple ARM Based MacBooks and iMacs to come in 2021

    Just because it's a comparatively new environment. But in the years the actors will shrink just like it happened for the x86 environment. helathy competition is not a stable state of things with our kind of market...

    Apple ARM Based MacBooks and iMacs to come in 2021

    I ask the super experts that clearly populate this comment section. Isn't it possible to just build a hybrid processor, with both arm and X86 cores, maybe with a unified cache, and adapt the os to make use of this hybrid structure like a big-little configuration?

    7nm Intel Xe GPUs Codenamed "Ponte Vecchio"

    It's a "let's keep the project up as much time as possible while the budget increases tenfolds or more and have problems all the way trough, so we get new funding" approach. one of the latest problem was that metal junctions of the dams are affected by corrosion due to salty water (who could've...

    7nm Intel Xe GPUs Codenamed "Ponte Vecchio"

    Mose (the dams to prevent flooding of Venice) was a derailing project from the beginning. I think I was 8 years old when they started talking about that in television. It became a joke quite instantly. Corruption was the main feature from the start. More than 20 years later they started...
