This actually seems like an a good use of AI for mobile device use case.

Was this supposed to link to an article?

YMTC stands out as the clear leader in China's semiconductor equipment localization efforts, with an adoption rate of 45%, far exceeding both the national average and other major domestic fabs, according to estimates from Morgan Stanley. This aggressive push aligns with its strategic goal of building fully self-reliant NAND production lines amid tightening U.S. export controls. However, a 45% adoption rate is considerably lower than 100%.

Among YMTC's domestic suppliers are AMEC (etching tools, chemical vapor deposition tools), Naura Technology (etching tools, CVD tools), and Piotech (atomic layer deposition tools, CVD tools). While Chinese companies are known for world-class etching and deposition tools, it is unclear whether YMTC can source lithography tools that it needs from local suppliers.

For now, the best Chinese lithography tool is currently produced in high volume by Shanghai Microelectronics Equipment (SMEE). The SSX600 from SMEE can make logic chips on a 90nm process technology, though it is working on more advanced tools.

Other major Chinese chipmakers are progressing with equipment localization more cautiously, and at a significantly lower pace compared to YMTC. SMIC, China's largest foundry, shows a 22% localization rate at its Jingcheng fab, and 18% at its Lingang fab. These results reflect the gradual substitution of foreign tools, likely limited by reliance on advanced lithography systems that China cannot yet produce domestically.

All in all, this is a rather impressive example of industrial policy. And I say this as someone who has a very negative view of the CCP.

I honestly don't know what Intel TDW is/was like for low-end SKUs.

But with AMD I can't even think of a low end SKU.

Ryzen 5 9600 goes for almost $300 where I live.

Funny world we live in where Intel operates on the low end, while AMD seems to have given up on that market.

Are all these low end x86 devices based on the Intel N series because AMD has given up on the low end x86 CPU market?

You rarely see an AMD CPU in such devices.

In ST (GB 6), the N150 scores around 1,300 which is comparable to i7-6970HQ (high-end laptop Skylake CPU from 2015).

Both the N150 and i7-6970HQ are quad core CPUs, N150 seems to have a MT score of around ~3,000 while the Skylake i7-6970HQ is around ~4,500, so the N150 is significantly behind MT even when going against a CPU with an equal number of cores from a decade ago.

The fact that MeLE Overclock X2 only takes single channel memory is further going to undermine performance.

As quantum photonic systems grow in scale and complexity, these integrated quantum chips could become the building blocks for technologies ranging from secure communication networks to advanced sensing and, eventually, quantum computing infrastructure.

So this is more of a proof of a concept tech building block. From the article, it seems that this is mainly relevant for quantum computing and not regular computing.

So this is what all this "kiss cam at Coldplay concert" is about. Pretty dull stuff.

One thing to note with facial recognition and security cameras is that you can't put the genie back in the bottle.

Another thing is that there are legitimate uses for extensive surveillance (catching spies, assasins and collaborators when your country is being invaded). While this is a somewhat extreme example, there are legitimate use cases outside of war time too.

It's up to us as voters to elect governments that do not abuse surveillance technology.

I believe the statement about 100 cores was just an example and not actually part of the roadmap.

It's a fun read if you're into this type of thing.

In theory, this seems like a reasonable approach, E cores take less space and are more power efficient; but what will the ST performance be like for the Titan Lake E cores? You still need ST performance, a lot of use cases will never be fully parallel.

I am not a pro with Linux, so people are welcome to correct me, but these would seem to be the viable options.

1. Try and find a Linux distro release that can run on the last Kernel 3.4 LTS release.
2. Search for a workaround/fix for the stuttering and/or reach out to the developers of the open source driver for the 3850.

I am not the author, just sharing.

Don't think this an OS issue per se. Both timed and sunset/sunrise work great on OneUI and Nova Launcher.

I like Firefox on Android, you can run full uBlock and Dark Reader.

I would argue it's not a good alternative and it's fundamentally tied into the US oligarch system.

Brave got investment from the A16Z VC fund, they've been involved in multiple crypto pump and dump schemes (e.g. Axie Infinity).

I agree. It also means that you can spend $300-$400 on a smartphone and it does everything without lag and at a high quality level. What's more, you can use it for 3-4 years.

There are some niche use cases like specialist smartphone photography and high demand gaming where you might need a flagship, but IMO a relatively small part of the market.

iOS has a design change, but otherwise there is nothing interesting. Smartphones have been around for a quarter of a century, both smartphone hardware and software are extremely mature.

Depends on the news site, in-demand US based articles get a full copy pretty quick. Somewhat more niche content can take time or it even never gets an archived copy.

Looks like the 9060 XT is one of better products for AMD in this price band in the last ~5 years.

Some of the difference between the 5000 and 6000 series are barely noticeable.
