It’s a massive supply chain, so, yes, both. But also a hundred other companies. TSMC and other foundries bring together many technologies from many companies (and no doubt a lot of their own) to ship a full foundry solution (design-technology-cooptimization, masks, lithography, packaging, etc).
The 3D Foveros packaging technology is critical as it allows some path lengths to be much shorter than if you had to traverse that same path but only in the horizontal 2D plane.
Very excited to see how this plays out in practice.
I thought Meteor Lake was tiled and 2D? Intel has EMIB and such for very good bridges, but they are still bridges.
If it is 3D stacked with TSVs, thats a whole other can of worms. AMD's X3D on Ryzen 7000 creates heat/clockspeed issues, and they reportedly canceled a 3D variant of the 7900 GPUs due to similar issues.
Yes, another anecdote to add to this thread of anecdotes is that my HI5 with HDA2 is stellar. I do hours at a time on highways in CA without a disengage.
My Jetta GLI can do this. ACC is good, if there’s a hard stop it will beep at me to brake, or brake itself hard later. The lane centering worked great in WA (with a tweak to the options to enable stronger centering) and works pretty good in CA (lane lines aren’t always as clear). Basically I only have to give a very light touch on the steering wheel, the car mostly just follows the road.
The system overall is not perfect but it’s great in stop and go and pretty good in regular traffic.
My single test drive with a Civic was similar but I didn’t test out the ADAS so much (and they wanted too much for it).
Yes for the most part. It’s good enough to say look around and enjoy the view off a bridge or check a text message but not enough to write a long text or read an article
6800U is awesome from what I’ve seen — better efficiency by far, and legit integrated graphics better than Xe — but it is vanishingly rare, even months after announcement.
The scale Intel has in manufacturing mobile CPUs is still unmatched.
That article actually shows %5 worse efficiency over a 5600U in a heavy single threaded workload. It's a bit apples to oranges and there's a lot more to efficiency on a laptop than heavy single core workloads.
These are poor communities. I know you realize how much lawyers cost.
Could a firm step in in hopes of getting a big pay day going up against the huge titans of the Chemical industry? Probably. Just hasn't happened yet, I'd say.
Is neoprene really the only way to make wet suits? I doubt it.
Regulate. A dirty word on HN, surely. Regulate the production of and, possibly, the import of neoprene, etc. Force industries to innovate - I know that's not a dirty word here - in order to sell these goods to Americans. Maybe then America becomes the sole producer of environmentally-friendly wet-suits to the whole of the word.
I think this is the only solution since your proposed solution of just "put the plants somewhere else" is, as you've pointed out, untenable.
