  • U.S. likely to tighten tech curbs as China advances chip production

    Jump

  • EUV may not even turn out to be a critical bottleneck. It reduces the number of masks you need for some parts of some chips, but using more masks appears to be a feasible approach, and there are rumblings that the advantages of EUV are already plateauing.

  • Foreign firms in China say vague rules and tensions with Washington hurting business, surveys show

    Jump

  • I mean, it's not like China was ever a model of transparent and clear regulations.

  • The Emergence of Huawei's Kirin 9000S: A Tectonic Shift in the Global Semiconductor Landscape

    Jump

  • I agree, but the US government thinks otherwise, and apparently the Commerce Department is now opening an investigation into how the Chinese could possibly have made a 7 nm chip. Though it's not clear what else they can do; they've already completely blacklisted Huawei by this point, yet somehow it still lives.

  • The Emergence of Huawei's Kirin 9000S: A Tectonic Shift in the Global Semiconductor Landscape

    Jump

  • Yes and no. There were plenty of commentators claiming that US sanctions were a death blow to the Chinese chip industry, who would not be able to go below 10 nm themselves, etc. This was one of the selling points for the sanctions.

  • A key feature of NFTs has completely broken / Web3 was supposed to make sure the original artist always got paid. Not so much anymore.

    Jump

  • I don't know much about NFTs, but can't the "give original artist a cut of royalties" clause be coded into the smart contracts? Why does it depend on a particular platform?

  • Cash, cars and homes seized in $735m Singapore anti-money laundering raids

    Jump

  • Do these contribute to the budget? Huat ah!

  • Ukraine ready to boycott Olympic Games if Russia and Belarus take part in competition- Ukrainian Prime Minister

    Jump

  • If you go back to the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece, it would be considered totally normal for countries to be competing peaceably at the Games one week, and slaughtering each other the next week. Funny how the ancient Greeks were more sophisticated, in a sense, than we are in the modern world.

  • Google Wants To Destroy The Internet...

    Jump

  • Apple loves control; the only reason I can think of that would make them oppose Google's Web Integrity proposal is that they don't think it goes far enough.

  • Verizon Fails Again, Shutters Attempted Zoom Alternative BlueJeans After Paying $400 Million For It

    Jump

  • To be fair, that's kinda how Zoom came about...

  • Music labels sue Internet Archive over digitized record collection

    Jump

  • That would have been the legally defensible move. But if this case goes through, they'll be liable for past damages, which would bankrupt them.

    IMO, this project of digitising/streaming old records should have been done under a totally separate organization from the get go, because of how risky it is.

  • Music labels sue Internet Archive over digitized record collection

    Jump

  • Legally speaking, I don't see how the Internet Archive wins this case. Problem is, what happens then? It would be pretty unfortunate to lose the Internet Archive as a resource, over a risky foray into streaming.

  • Ferromagnetic half levitation of LK-99-like samples

    Jump

  • In unrelated news, did you see the fusion news! We did it! Net positive energy! Fusion will be in our toasters in a few short years!

    Now they simply have to figure out how to get that super-powerful laser, which can fire only once a day, to firing once every milisecond ;-)
