I don't think any consumer products get advertised this way? "Now with 2-nm technology inside" is not something anyone cares about. It's not a meaningful benchmark for a chip.

The companies that contract with chip foundries probably know what they're getting. It makes reading industry news a bit more confusing, but for most of us, we're reading it for entertainment, not any practical purpose.
First time founder here. How can I remove some of those? We still need the rest for our analytics. It's hard to serve our populations when we are blind.
I don't necessarily care what the minimum gate length is. But I don't like misleading marketing terms that ostensibly give you information about the product, but in reality don't give you any information at all.

If marketing wants to use some metric to convey how good the product is, that's fine, but if the only information being conveyed is the product generation number, they should not be able to masquerade that generation number as a metric. Otherwise it misleads consumers into thinking, i.e. "2nm chips should be able to contain twice as many transistors as 4nm chips!" when that is false.
Not only does all of this sound horrible, I’m just sick of hearing about it.

I’d love for extreme climate action against the climate crisis to be undertaken so I don’t have to constantly hear about it. It’s total madness.

The fact we’re not “going to war” against climate change as a species is crazy, this is what happens when we’re led by older people who could care less?
3 years was about how long it took me to really loathe the place.

There was an excessive deference towards authority (derived from confucianism, i think) that rubbed me up the wrong way and a definite streak of selfishness/uncaringness that permeated the culture. Also that shallow vapid wealth-worshipping thing that "crazy rich asians" captured so accurately.

I remember the way foreign workers were treated was just brutal, too. I was there for the bus driver strikes and the little india riot and i was appalled by how thuggish the authorities acted in both cases while everyone else just shrugged.

Plenty of casual racism lurking under the surface too, although white people are probably more of a beneficiary of that than a victim. This is perhaps partly why so many love the place.

What do you think you could learn from such an expensive study?

It seems too short and unfocused to learn anything meaningful.
If it doesn't matter why cant they just switch to a density number that translates better than a lookup table and doesn't refer to a measure it has no relationship with anymore?
Thanks bro, you made my day, the upcoming features are fire, just stay tuned.
The aggressively closed & closed-minded behavior of Shimano, their active legal pursuit of anyone else using the abundant data here, turndd me off incredible from the company. One example: forcing Hammerhead Karoo to remove support.

Bikes are such a pure & free thing. Im also a computer lover, but computers are so easy to misuse for control & constraint, to obstruct involvement. It's so sad to see bicycles- a symbol of freedom & personal choice, one where standard(-ish) parts has long been a thing- fall sway to the darker corporatistic evils computing alas so often can encumber the planet with.

> With increasing ARM both on servers and laptops(Macs) x86 itself may wane in marketshare .

Not a problem - they both (Intel and AMD) make ARM chips too, don't they?
I always liked the feeling of looking at a well-formatted piece of code. But discussions about formatting always ensued with coworkers.

Lately, I've been deriving immense satisfaction from pressing Ctrl+Shift+I inside VSCode, and having Prettier format absolutely everything, with its sensible default settings and no leeway for discussion. It feels good.
Technical minutia, but I found that I felt a lot more confident once I understood this: The reason f-number is written like so is because it's not a measure of actual aperture diameter but is instead the ratio of aperture diameter to focal length. Specifically, (f-number) = (focal length)/(aperture diameter), or:

N = f/A

equivalent to,

A = f/N

Hence the format f/N, since you (theoretically) use f-number to calculate actual aperture diameter when given a specific focal length. That aperture is in the denominator also explains why smaller f-numbers are brighter.

Why those weird numbers in particular? As in the article, a 'stop' is a doubling or halving of the brightness (technically, 'illuminance') of the image produced by the lens. Since the amount of light that passes through an aperture is proportional to its area, which is in turn proportional to the square of its diameter, one stop corresponds to a sqrt(2) ~ 1.4 ratio between two aperture diameters. Hence, the standard scale of full f-stops is the powers of two and their geometric means:

f/1, f/1.4, f/2, f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6, f/8, f/11, f/16, f/22, f/32, f/45, f/64

The full stop scale in the article has some errors: f/1.8 instead of f/1.4, a typo for f/4/0, and a lack of f/45 (though f/1.8 is the stop below f/2 in the finer 1/3- and 1/4-stop scales):

f/1.8, f/2.8, f/4/0, f/5.6, f/8.0, f/11, f/16, f/22, f/32, f/64

But why measure image brightness using f-number instead of aperture diameter directly? Because brightness also depends on focal length: Doubling the focal length of a lens doubles the size of the image of an object seen through it. Since the light from the object is spread out over four times the area, the image brightness is quartered. This means lenses with equal aperture diameters and different focal lengths will not have the same exposure. (below edited, I confused myself at first!) But photographers would rather not have to consider focal length when choosing an aperture for proper exposure. Designing lenses such that their aperture controls are labelled with f-number enables this, since actual aperture diameter then scales automatically with focal length to cancel out its effects on exposure.

The real criticism of Tesla is that there are about 65m cars sold per year now globally.

If every one of those cars has $10k of profit (way too high, but for arguments sake), that’s $650bn of profit per year.

When a single company with less than 1% share of sales has a market cap higher than the entire theoretical annual profits of an industry, that implies an insane amount of speculation (about things like Robo taxis and insurance, etc)

I'm a relatively serious at home cook and here's my feedback: usually it helps to read a recipe from top to bottom and get a rough idea for all the steps, rather than reading linearly sequentially, so I didn't love having to click through every step of the example and then presumably every step "Back" to go back to the start. I'd suggest offering a way to see the whole recipe all at once

> Bandwidth is not the issue anymore, but latency.

Bandwidth is also the issue, but most web devs or website owners don't seem to realise or care that most of the world is probably struggling with their page weight.

Internet speeds are more disparate now than in the 90s, but this issue tends to be made opaque by available bandwidth statistics... There are no distribution statistics available at all. Instead bandwidth stats are always aggregated as a regional average, and worse those samples tend to be from voluntary subset (at least in my country). Even when the median is used, it conceals a significant bandwidth divide due to communication technology gaps.

The bandwidth distribution could be roughly inferred more accurately by grouping the averages by communication technology rather than region - this way a large number of very poor bandwidth users aren't concealed by a handful of super fast gigabit fiber connections or a marginal majority of fiber connections. There's a huge number of households still stuck with ADSL, 100% fiber is a very long way off (will probably never have full coverage, expecting LTE to fill this gap) and there is a huge gap between these technologies. To compound this issue households have to share connections between multiple people and increasingly hungry devices that don't respect users data usage (looking at Apple's massive inefficient update images in particular).
We switched some of our stack from k8s and swarm to Fargate, and API Gateway (Lambda). I don't know whether I enjoyed the switching, I mean it's just learning a new stack and applying it; but I do currently enjoy not having to manage anything myself and I like that there's no internal abstractions that are leaking out to the devs as they do their work.

There's a thin layer of lock-in which I'm aware of, but not afraid of. In exchange I get a lot of peace of mind, cost savings, and importantly, a lot of things are someone else's problem.

As with any tech the important thing is not adopting something because it's popular, but only adopting it if it helps you. That requires you to spend a little time learning about it first.

How about yourself, are you mulling a switch or in the process?

A little more about me: I'm a Software Engineer with 7+ years of professional experience. I've mostly worked developing energy and energy efficiency platforms in web environments (IoT and dashboards and such): lots of microservices in PHP, Go and Python using CI/CD with Gitlab. I'm a Jack of all trades, but now I'm mostly focused in Project Management using Agile and traditional methods (not all companies like Agile...). I love backend programming, and I'm proficient in Linux and I'm very comfortable using CLIs all day.

I own a software company that deals with European and Local companies, and it's mostly self-surviving at this point, which makes me want to look into other adventures.

> Hypothetically speaking, how hard would it be to kill someone like this?

I've always found it strange that what happened to Abe recently hasn't happened to just about every world leader, most of whom do public events on a daily basis. In most countries with 50% opposing you, you've got an average of about 20 million people. Take the top 0.01% craziest fanatical opposition and you've still got 2000 people. In the US for example, there are 400 million firearms and god knows how many political lunatics, yet only one president was assassinated in the last century.

Not that it's a good idea.

Anecdotally, we bought a Tesla a few years ago and it was awesome. Just buy it online, walk up, unlocks with your phone, and drive away. My spouse (a very socially anxious person who despises car dealerships) loved it and said if it made sense, she would never buy a car anywhere else. Granted, the same experience is rolling out for traditional cars (carvana, carmax, etc).
onX Maps was an excellent place to work. I had to leave for health reasons but it was a great experience. I wish I could have stayed.

When they changed from planar transistors to more 3D-like transistors like FinFET, I believe. I'm pretty sure 55nm and probably 28nm still has minimum pitch of that size.

Problem was that people had certain expectation that a "45nm" process could fit more transistors than "90nm" one. Would be kind of awkward to name it like "22nm++++" and you have no idea roughly how much better it was than the old planar "22nm" process.
Those names are relevant in planar processes (32 nm was last planar prosess for Intel). With FinFets, Gate-All-Around, ribbon fet etc. that makes no sense.

The correct figure of merit is transistor density MTr/mm² (millions of transistors per squared millimeter). In reality transistor count is not actually transistor count.

Transistor count = 0.6 × NAND2/area + 0.4×[Scan Flip Flops]/area

Was about to write the same thing. The first few years of Wired were incredible. I was both a geek and at that time heavily into "desktop publishing" and Wired was a revelation akin to discovering a new religious text.

I miss magazines. I rarely read them now, but there was something exciting about browsing through a new issue - the ads were as interesting as the editorial material. In the best magazines, each page flip was a masterpiece of graphic design. In our collective transition to online content, we definitely lost a lot in terms of the visual language developed for print. Though we have high resolution screens now, it doesn't seem to be returning. The visual innovations seems to have complete moved to video now, and "pages" are now just scrolling text.

Amusingly, I signed up for ACM recently to get access to a research paper, and they unexpectedly mailed me their monthly magazine. An actual physical printed periodical? Wow. As I was reading it, I realized I've become so used to digital screens, it felt weird to read. You have to move your eyes up and down columns! They don't just scroll into my line of vision. Figures and images are numbered and you have to look around for them, they're not just embedded in a carousel in line with the text. Took me a minute or two to adjust for real.
