    2nm transistors

    Speaking of the M1 chip, they put it in their new ipad pro.

    Just to make it easier on MrBobFace and so were all not nitpicking his much appreciated volunteer work, I say MrBobFace only disseminates information gathered from either CNN's MSNBC's or FOX's opinion panels.

    2nm transistors

    If the purpose of the radiation hardening is to ensure proper operation of computer systems, one way theyre already doing that is through triple redundancy. Maybe you could also build the chip to compensate for errors caused by radiation? I'd be surprised if that too wasnt already the case.

    2nm transistors

    Maybe we can look to graphene? Carbon nanotube transistors?

    IMO Human beings don't have the capacity to truly care for the entire population of this planet at the individual level. Speaking as an American, all the worlds horrors have been broadcast to us over the TV and viewed from the safety of our home throughout my lifetime, and probably (probably)...

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I know your country has a private healthcare system that takes health insurance, I had to see a hand surgeon in Cambridge once and it wasnt an NHS hospital. I think with private healthcare you just get a better experience. Shorter wait times and better appointment availability are two pros that...

    A good recent article from Reuters on the current situation and plans going forward. I just thought they had the military in the streets indefinitely and everyone locked in their homes like we saw in China.

    Foundation (New Apple + Sci Fi series)

    I used to be one of those dudes that hates anything Apple. I changed my mind after I bought the 12" Ipad Pro, its just a quality product and I absolutely love it. I think I can see the appeal of apple outside of their products being social status symbols for people. If all I did was photography...

    2nm transistors

    Heres some good reads to skim through. EDIT: Most of the stock I own is in Nvidia. I've been doing a little bit of research into the whole semiconductor industry and its all really interesting. The manufacturing process they use to manufacture the wafers is borderline magic.

    2nm transistors

    These companies keep surprising themselves. They say they are reaching the physical limit of the materials they have been using, but we might soon measure our chips in picometers.

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I mostly agree with both of your replies. Speaking to your last statement about the ICU bed availability, I can also attest to the number of ICU beds generally being limited even before the outbreak of COVID. Hospitals know how many ICU patients they may get year after year so they know they...

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I've seen questions raised over the origins of the virus because it was so well adjusted to living in humans from the get go. I'm no virologist obviously, but there are a lot of things that raise questions people have yet to be able to answer with 100% confidence. We're over a year out from the...

    I had intentions to reply to this, but I got distracted. Sorry it took so long lol. Its been a while, so all I really have to say is that I agree and its good insight into the perspective of Mr. Bobface.

    I posted this in April of last year, only a couple months after the coof really started hitting hard. Its an interesting look at the lab and its staff and what they were working on. Its stuff like this that gave me confidence in the "lab leak" theory. I know Mr. Bobface doesn't care for things...
