They are currently just under $50 billion and have bought back $130 billion+ in shares since 2018 I would most if not all of their reserves went into buybacks.
I think they linked the wrong company. Then one talked about is based in Massachusetts and the one linked is Italian. One founded last year the other like a decade ago
What does building end to end even mean? If i go to china and ask a factory work if they know how to produce the semiconductor in the iPhone they’re assembling will they know? If I go to any major city and ask someone to grow me wheat or corn can they do it successfully? Different people specialize in different things. Maybe a fullstack developer is what you're looking for lmao. This isn’t the medieval times the world and the tools we use are complex we’re not making swords anymore even back then then moat blacksmiths didn’t mine for minerals.
The percentage you see flying around doesn’t include people who aren’t actively looking for jobs u-3.if you include them it goes to 4.4 go to bls.gov and find alternative measures of labor underutilization. Its not undercounting just different levels/definitions of unemployment qualifications
Cyclone V is 28nm so it should be outclassed by a new product offering in 2022 thats manufactured at a better node right? i'm not saying its a bad design, but that product is not a competitive offering. this new family from intel is on intel 7 node which is at scale intel can eat node prices to stay competitive. intel will probably price this competitively with its cyclone v offering if that happens intel will eat the market share of xilinx and lattice unless they announce something new.
If your phone can scan qr codes you can use esim its pretty easy at least in my experience. I unlocked my phone when i was traveling to Kenya grabbed an esim for a couple cents when i landed and was set up in seconds.
My comment wasn’t this serious but I don’t think any munition that can damage an aircraft carrier will be that cheap. Also im no expert but with more energy isnt the distance at which the heat from the laser remains effective becomes longer right? So if the tech is truly mature isn’t 20km a bit naïve also what if each laser system is an array of lasers with independent movement maybe 10-20 laser per system this configuration will definitely out power drones at the scale you speak of. The future is hard to predict.
So Lockheed recently showed video of its laser weapon. as the technology matures I assume energy consumption will drop, and intercepting drones or anything is no longer limited by number of misses, drones, or ammo but energy. Imagine nuclear aircraft carriers pumping an indefinite amount of energy at least in the short term into multiple lasers basically creating an energy barrier around the craft.
That wasn't your comment you said the nordic countries discovered more periodic elements the US. My response was going to be since your grouping the nordic countries the the uk and us would also have to be group because of historic relation between the uk and us specifically the us is some degree was a colony of the uk. With that being said the two combined have discovered 45 elements almost split evenly between the two in comparison to the nordics 25. Also its not a chicken and egg problem unix came to fruition without linux, but linux would never have existed without unix especially if Linus Torvalds had never came in contact with unix at university. Linus Torvalds thesis goes in detail about relation between the two.
you are correct a foreign government should not rely on another foreign government for government related technologies, but the reason this even went to court is because one company couldn't compete with another for contracts so they played the legal card if i understood the summary correctly. This shows there's a lack of technological capability/capacity within the EU asif its actual rocket science to host computed services. Aslo do you think about your data? because this is a US service and if remember correctly its hosted on M5 both US services. so you using it shows you aren't thinking about your data because this site is a data trove upvotes, comments, posts, etc. The US government could easily subpoena for all your data and cookies related to this site and build a profile.
If you're talking about linux an operating system based on unix from bell labs. then it just an operating system created by a European which is based on an operating system created by Americans. without one the other wouldn't exist.
Honestly to me all these comments are wrong and focusing too much on the 2nm aspect and not the possible r&d outcomes. EUV come to fruition because of r&d research between the US and other countries/companies. TSMC might be the largest foundry but a majority if not all of their tooling is from the west and japan; from ASML, AMAT, Lam Research and others. Best believe some acquisitions will happen especially on from the US side and new tech will be coming out probably some sort of EUV replacement.
Its not rare per se NASA expects an impact about every month. this one was larger than their calculations, but that "significant uncorrectable damage" won't affect the pictures or the scientific work. also all damage to the telescope is uncorrectable due to the location of the telescope. If you read NASA report and not sky news which doesn't even link the report you would know.
LUVIOR is not web. Web doesn't have articulation like LUVIOR its fixed only the mirror segements move. also they don't rorate everytime they take a picture there's limitations beacuse its an infered telescope. https://jwst-docs.stsci.edu/jwst-observatory-characteristics.... Web also has a field of view 15x hubble
It took like 5 months to cool web to operational temperatures rolling the telescope would create so much heat all new images would be useless until it cools down again.
Global imo not the USA. US is not a net importer of food, but an exporter. Most of the imported food can be grown in the states also three of the top four food imports to the US are used for/are beverages i.e. wine, coffee, and malt beverages. Also the reason why so much money went into ethanol research is because of the massive corn wastage that happens every year. Maybe the US should crank up food export, but demand is for wheat not corn.
The Chinese government has forced plenty of US companies to move data local from apple to tesla. Also a vast majority of tiktoks revenue comes from the US to this day, they can’t afford to lose it. unlike with india and probably every other region they operate in outside of china. It’s also not brazen as the two countries aren’t on best terms atm.
Google cloud is part of a company called alphabet which also own a little tool called google search you should try it. it’s very handy. Also if you don’t know what a tpu is the product probably is targeted at you
