Maybe they should. It would be far less intrusive for venders who wish to sell age restricted goods to simply have it built in like that.

The US is behind other democracies which have required photo id for social media and other content. And even if I disagree with these laws, surely you jest that showing a proof of …

Outside of Taiwan TSMC foundries are just pumping out already developed non leading edge fab processes. Everyone who matters to TSMC tech development is in Taiwan.

Huge order for... what? DoD's needs for chips are quite modest in quantity. Truth is that the US Gov doesn't need the volume which requires Intel to keep afloat.

GF is a zombie company. Micron and TI are both far far away from leading edge. There is only one American company which is both developing and manufacturing leading edge nodes.

We did so because having all laboratories be government run was inefficient so in WW2 we decided to split the costs with private and public universities who will maintain labs, equ…

The feds are funding research, which elite schools have the best faculty and scholars who are conducting the very best research. May as well as why are VC’s funding promising start…

Because double standards.

Obama threatened, but did not make good on those threats. Trump is threatening and actively withholding funds even to Columbia which bent the knee, because these are institutions w…

Amtrak's ridership has been growing and hit an all time high. The Northeast Corridor is a profitable route which is held back by century old infrastructure. If it actually had real…

Except the policy in question was never actually abused as the student did not receive an API key as requested. A proportional response would be a simple denial for API key and rem…

There is no free market in the fab business. Every single player had some level of government support and direct subsidies for decades.

What makes you think it would be a new one as opposed to a refurbished used one.

Of all of those, only Amazon has a design planned for 18A. Just because chip designers exist doesn’t mean that their business is going to go Intel. If they had customers lined up t…

Vultures are circling and with Intel trading at below the value of it's assets there's been an onslaught of articles suggesting that it would be best to cut up the company. This wo…

Taking actions which kill it faster isn't a good plan.

Intel's new Fabs in AZ started construction in 2021, before the CHIPS act has passed. It has had a gross profit in the tens of billions yearly and right now has ~$30Bn cash on hand…

No it isn’t, because no CHIPS act funding had been given to Intel yet.

What are you talking about Intel had yet to receive a single dollar! https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/intel-ceo-is-frus...

Why split Intel in the first place? Intel fabs die without the volume of Intel Design, and looking at the disaster that is the Arrow Lake launch, without the cost advantage Intel D…

Who uses the fabs then? Without Intel Design giving the volume, the fabs die.

Yeah I’m not going to lie, that’s quite disappointing. Google funding several AP1000’s would be huge.

Funny thing about deterrence conversations in the west is that it’s so often characterized as a one way street. That the west can be deterred limitlessly and that others like Russi…

Drone on drone is very inefficient. There is plenty of work on going for anti drone capabilities for small caliber cannons, direct energy, and aps. I would not hand wave mitigation…

And then a cheaper APS round disables your $10K drone, while a direct energy weapon for dollars of electricity can destroy swarms in one go. The car and mouse nature of weapons tec…
