#Chips R Us in Midland, Western Australia. Every time someone asks me what I miss from Australia, one of the things I tell them is “real, soggy, fat, greasy-ass chips wrapped in white paper”.
This is 1000% what I mean. Hand cut White Star #potatoes fried in #beeftallow. Salivating just looking at this. Nowhere in the US have I been able to find similar chips.
Departments of Commerce and Defense agree to increase information sharing to closely coordinate on the #CHIPS for America’s incentives program, “ensuring that their respective investments position the U.S. to produce semiconductor chips essential to national security and defense programs.”
I'm at the Intel Innovation conference today in San Jose. I expect a coming-out party for Meteor Lake, Intel's next-gen PC processor arriving later this year. Plus lots of chatter about chipmaking, AI, Xeon, development software. It wouldn't be an Intel event without lots of 300mm wafers. 1/n #Intel#processors#semiconductors#chips
A RISC-V chip with with secret RTL (not to mention the layout) does not qualify as open-hardware. Otherwise MS Word would be open-source software just because it implements the Open Document Format (ODF).
The good part of any #NonCompeteClause in #Germany is that those are null and void if the former #Employer doesn't pay them as if they were still employed for the duration of their clause, since it restricts their ability to earn the same amount of #income.

Him being a convicted #capitalist who is #consistent in his logic and understanding makes him if not agreeable at least respectable and acceptable, since he's not nitpicking only the aspects he likes and disregards what he dislikes.
