"self-driving safeguards fooled by $30 doll heads" https://electrek.co/2026/06/15/chinese-drivers-plastic-heads...

Yes, NOR Flash guarantees 20 years data retention. It's about $30/GiB.

All the big 3D NAND makers have already switched from floating gate to charge trapping. Basically the same as what you describe but basically the electrons get stuck in a non-condu…

It will. The big 3 (Micron, Samsung, SK Hynix) have announced they will quit making LPDDR4 so that they can make more (LP)DDR5.

Netherlands AND Holland? Isn't that the same place? Also: Even while ASML steppers are built in Netherlands, there are a lot of other non-photolithography tools needed to build a f…

Can you recommend a place to learn more about this? I have been curious about this topic but have struggled to find resources online describing the basic physics of electric flight…

I am pretty sure this sets a new record for highest Weissman score

I went to so many LAN parties at friends houses during high-school in the mid 2000s. Without this experience, I doubt I would have pursued electrical engineering and moved to silic…

I think all the units so far are 3 motor (2 motors in rear) and therefore the rear differential lock is probably (planned to be) implemented by software that keeps the two motors i…

Rivian "licensee" here. So far all updates have required you to press a button (in the car or on the app) to launch the update installer. Not sure how many weeks you can ignore it …

The extra 4 are for ECC

> Kioxia and Western Digital Corp. are on the cusp of finalizing their merger, anticipated to be agreed upon as early as this month, according to Kyodo News. This union is poised t…

I have a new passively cooled N100 system I am planning to use as a router. I will try to run your tool on it when I get it running.

I agree. I never understood how this deal could have made business sense from the beginning. I grew up in south-east Wisconsin and I was disappointed at how gullible-seeming the lo…

Infineon Aurix microcontrollers on TSMC 28nm have eFlash and RRAM available as NVM. https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/about-infineon/press/market-...

Power Via is more of a fab technology and AMD is fabless. Therefore not really possible to compare directly in this aspect. AMD relies on TSMC or Samsung to make their chips.

I had the same issue this morning on my RT-AC68U.

Arrow is the largest electronic component distributor in the world. They cater mainly to mid/large companies though, not hobbiests/etailing.

Also consider that most high density Flash today is made from TLC cells which have 8 distinct Vt levels each. That means in average case (i.e. random data) there is a minimum of 3.…

Cypress Semi (now Infineon) FRAM is ferro-electric. FRAM is not affected by magnetic fields at all. MRAM is ferro-magnetic and is affected by magnetic fields.

I'm using a 5950X, and in the BIOS there is a setting where you can enter the power limit in Watts. So while the "X" CPUs consume more power as configured out-of-the-box, you can s…

Fed funds rate and total interest paid on outstanding treasury bonds are not a 1:1 relationship. The coupon payments of a bond are determined at the time of issuance. So for exampl…

SRAM is ~10x higher cost per bit (due to memory cell size) than DRAM

Yes. But in layman's terms, wouldn't you just call that a "power plant"?
