zogomoox··on ASML looking to finally get ahead of Moore’s Law
This is correct. (source: I worked there)
zogomoox··on ASML looking to finally get ahead of Moore’s Law
In development High-NA EUV can do 2nm logic, possibly 1nm with double patterning? There's not a lot more room at the bottom after that, given silicon crystal atom distance of .3nm
zogomoox··on How close is RISC-V to RISC-I? (2017)
Would it be possible to have fast stack machine CPUs nowadays? (let's say, competing with x64 cpu's) or is there some inherent benefit to register machines?
zogomoox··on The SAFe Delusion
Even if it worked, who wants to be in a 3 day long planning meeting every quarter? It sounds like a worse kind of hell to me.
zogomoox··on The Commodordion
No, he managed to combine three traditionally uncool things, namely 8 bit computing, accordions and ragtime music, resulting in an underflow of uncoolness which is extremely cool.
zogomoox··on New research suggests our brains use quantum computation
How can you tell entangled particles from non-entangled ones? I saw another article today about keeping quantum systems entangled for a long time by firing lasers in a Fibonacci pattern, but what allows them to see whether its still entangled?
zogomoox··on Transmission 4.0.0 beta 1
It's possible, set bind-address-ipv4 (and depending on your needs rpc-bind-address) in settings.json
zogomoox··on We secretly love meetings (2010)
Let me tell you about SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework). If your company adapts this monstrosity you'll have two day long PI-planning meetings with many many people (90+ in my case) every quarter.
zogomoox··on Less is more agile
Group meetings, the next exponent of that is SAFe (so called Scaled Agile Framework) where you'll see 2-day-long meetings with 80+ people. I am not a fan.
zogomoox··on The forty-year programmer
35-ish years of coding here, but the professional part of it is being thoroughly ruined by things like SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework). You always were a cog in a machine, but SAFe actually makes you be aware of it, all the time.
zogomoox··on Amid chip shortages, companies bet on RISC-V
Eventually, if you have pin-compatible chips from several manufacturers, they could replace chips from lets say Taiwan with ones from Europe perhaps?
zogomoox··on Lava Tubes on the Moon Maintain Comfortable Room Temperatures Inside
I imagine these bricks will be modeled so they stack easily i.e. legoregolith bricks.
zogomoox··on The end of Optane is bad news
The use case is replacing flash, because modern flash cells die after a handful of writes. Surely there's a market for ultra-durable SSDs.
zogomoox··on Black Widow Pulsar Sets Mass Record
The article states the neutron star spins up as it accretes mass from its partner.. surprising as you'd expect something that gains mass to slow down.
zogomoox··on The Dangers of Microsoft Pluton
I would assume chinese made RISC-V have their own special sauce.
zogomoox··on “Harbinger households” consistently buy products that get discontinued (2019)
In the movie 'the cooler' (2003) people like this are given jobs in casinos to attenuate the luck of the gamblers.
zogomoox··on Clang Static Analyzer and the Z3 constraint solver
They're using a terrible example, because I'd prefer that null reference to be caught whether the code is reachable or not.
zogomoox··on The age of Scrum is over
There's something even more hellish and that is Scaled Agile Framework.
zogomoox··on Ask HN: Teach me something new
Something that worked for me: playing low volume noise on a stereo in the bedroom. Even barely audible noise would suppress the beeps and drone of my tinnitus.
zogomoox··on Ask HN: Teach me something new
It's more likely a Boltzmann brain would be a microscopic quantum computer, dreaming up planets and people and you to get over the boredom of being alive for a picosecond.
zogomoox··on Elegant six-page proof reveals the emergence of random structure
So it seems this allows us to understand when phase transitions occur, I wonder if this has applications in improving high temperature superconductors.
zogomoox··on Swedish slow TV: The great moose migration [video]
A Møøse once bit my sister ... No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies
zogomoox··on DALL·E 2 and The Origin of Vibe Shifts
The best bit in the article is the Berkshire Hathaway website, a case of "the emperor wears no clothes and he knows it".
zogomoox··on .NET Myths Dispelled
Can you explain this a bit? I'm trying to figure out what the appeal is of YARP, so far the only thing that makes sense is the load balancing.
zogomoox··on RISC-V J extension – Instructions for JITs
I wonder how many future projects will not use RISC-V because middle management will stop reading proposals after the word RISC.
zogomoox··on Universe Splitter
Sean Carrol addressed this in his royal institution lecture (a brief history of quantum mechanics, 37m30s). As far as I understood those universes aren't created, you're just selecting a slice of phase space of the (very big) number of possible universes. ( link: https://youtu.be/5hVmeOCJjOU?t=2247 )
zogomoox··on Universe Splitter
I landed in an absurd universe where it looks like the iron curtain will make a comeback soon.
zogomoox··on A man who tried to redeem the world with logic (2015)
If he was considered to be the smartest man in a group that included John von Neumann, that's awe-inspiring.
zogomoox··on ASML reports fire at its Berlin factory
EUV and higher energy photons are difficult beasts, I would put my money on electrons next, so perhaps the electron microscope companies hold the interesting patents there.
zogomoox··on ASML reports fire at its Berlin factory
I recommend you check out the ASML / Brion campus in Silicon Valley.
