I was in Oregon to take a look at @Intel's High-NA EUV machine - a $350m monster of lithography. It's almost complete now, going into calibration. Then it'll run test-wafers to prep for R&D into 14A. Here are some details on the machine, plus my thoughts. youtu.be/8i9rs4LNSlI

Late last year, I got to see a really interesting demo of a @LightmatterCo optical processor playing video games. Frame data input, controller output. Really cool that we can do this, and I finally can share it with you! :) youtu.be/PGfRCioCkZs

What's funny is watching another analyst host a podcast that goes off in a completely implausible direction based on an NDA meeting you both were in only a day before.

If you had questions for Intel's CEO/CFO, what would you ask?
Seriously, whoever is A/B testing in my app these compressed versions has to stop. They're less enticing, text doesn't work. Jpeg compression this bad on a platform hosting 20 billion videos just seems wrong. Get full res in desktop browser, mobile is 💩 cc @YouTubeInsider ICYMI


Looks like @Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan is going to revive SMT, says being without it is a competitive disadvantage. morethanmoore.substack.com/p/intel-ceo-le…

Case in point with the reduced quality thumbnails. These look really bad.
Did @youtube recently decrease the quality of it's resized thumbnails? Noticing a lot of jpeg artifacts since last week.
Almost every CPU you use today runs the same way - so it has to be the best, right? Well Efficient Computer says there's another way - and it's 100x more efficient than Arm. They've got silicon back and have started firing up the benchmark machine. youtu.be/xuUM84dvxcY

What's the best thing to do when you're in Paris and have an audience at @RaiseSummit? Talk about why old computers help you design the new hardware. I mean Turbo buttons, serial programs, fast, and my BASIC code 😁 youtu.be/UmSaNns2aR4

My @streamyardapp annual Advanced subscription just went up from $466/yr to $828/yr. That's a 77% increase. Absolutely insane. Who else wants my business, provides local downloads, multiple users, and multi-destination streams?
Interested the the next stage of process node development? The smart engineers at @imec_int know the effort it'll take to get to 0.2nm - in this video I go through their roadmap. youtu.be/0wRvbIaTUQw

My take: Not really, because it's incredibly workload and scene dependent. It'll either be a metric temporally too short to be relevant or temporally too long such that it hides bad code and smoothes out the edges. One obvious answer is that if it was a metric that meant…
Do you guys think frames per watt is a good metric for games when talking about laptop performance?
I've been waiting for this for years. Finally it looks like anyone can do it, without the need for special tuning or collaboration. A nod to @Marvell and @AMD for making it happen! youtu.be/zQGZFBrGmK4

Big news: the @Synopsys acquisition of @ANSYS is now complete. It took a while, but it went over the line. This makes Synopsys a force in EDA and multiphysics - combine it with the IP portfolio and there are going to be some amazing chips coming through. synopsys.com/synopsys-ansys…
