If we had dedicated infrastructure we could make the roadways out of wear resistant material. Maybe a metal or something

Did you miss quote the OP?

Yeah, that might not be the best example. Normally you’d want a double seal or really tuned compression to reliably hit IP68. And the o-ring adds a manufacturing step. And you have…

Z stack strength and rigidity is a huge driver because it reduces charge back. Margins are super tight for a lot of OEMs and the PMs eliminate any non-profit features. Off the top …

See my reply below.

Can confirm. Dmitry saved the Fire tablet by finding an error in TI’s BSP while J.S. documented the repro steps, and gave me the info to get it fixed. This was during manufacture, …

The Amiga had good DTP software and hardware at the time. I used them for large format printing. They were initially faster and much cheaper than the Apple solutions. Once the Quad…

No, it was scrapped in 2015 at a Chinese shipyard.

Are you sure? A quick review of the budget over time shows that the biggest outlays are on food and drugs, which seems correct? In fact the medical drug industry is what, $300B and…

‘IBM and the Holocaust’ is a similarly gripping exploration of these men and their business prowess. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust

I used to do fast descents of Bonny Doon and similar. Think 60Mph / 100kmhr at the base. With my fat butt and damp brakes I would run through the stop signs at the bottom using rim…

No. The baseband can DMA what it wants, when it wants. The baseband PMIC can power what it wants when wants. The AP is the junior partner.

USA Boomers use LRG for INS and SLBMs use star shots for mid-course correction. It’s good enough that the D5 was counter force, which is to say it can hit enemy siloes.

I think it is even worse. NAVAIR had the 14 with its massive capabilities and instead spent a ton of money improving the A6, A7, a bunch of canceled projects, picked the effing LOS…

The plan in the 90s was to use 4 high bypass engines and replace the tail. At the time improving the -52 was not favored by the USAF because it would threaten the B-1. I still thin…

The desktop user experience has been quite good Virtualization Framework’s VLAN support is not mature and getting more than 100 machines per rack has proven difficult. The need for…

No, it's because Apple phones have margin. They make money. Their competitors desperately want to make money. They make their money selling phones wholesale into retailing supply c…

No. We would use the baseband PMIC and DMA to move the info out of the AP if they were not integrated.

Yeah, Spinlaunch is going to dump a lot of energy into the lower atmosphere, shed its glowing white hot shell, and then need get enough deltaV to put up a payload. Anyway, the earl…

The baseband/PMIC is such a huge threat and it is entirely in the hands of the carriers that desperately want user data. Coupled with very tightly held IP the problem seems to be i…

NAVSEA had no idea what they are doing with regards to C&C on subs. NAWCTSD used to have good ideas. I remember that the NAVSEA rules were that you had to recover from a crash in l…

No. Carriers routinely back haul GPS data and angle data to geo locate users. At the time this information was batched nightly against transaction data provided by credit card (and…
