Can you share any official communication where somebody claimed this fab was for AI?
It was pretty clear that this fab - much like the other Bosch facilities - is going to be for automotive and industry ICs, not for high end node sizes in CPUs or GPUs.
I think I've read "power management chips for AI" somewhere. Probably technically correct, but also a somewhat gratuitous reference to the current thing for silly PR reasons.
I don't think this is merely a gratuitous reference given the fact that AI demand is probably - among EVs - a key driver for the sales of power related ICs.
Regardless of my whataboutism, I still think tax is an very apt description of what the Google Play and App Store fees effectively represent. I would be happy to call it a fee if the stores would actually allow effective competition. But as it stands right now, the "government" like behaviours make the wording tax fairly accurate.
I have never understood the appeal of foldables, but I guess with Apple launching them now, they're probably going to see significantly improved software support within the next few years
In Europe, the Fiat Topolino and his siblings are an increasingly common sight (while still being rare).
Relatively cheap, can be charged with a regular 230V socket, tops out at 45kmph. Not as compact as a bike for obvious reasons, but still a substantially smaller footprint than any modern car - and comes with proper weather protection.
My mum will buy one to work (home nurse) while keeping her big car around for larger travel. Especially with gas prices, I think you will see those more and more.
Flatpaks are a common packaging mechanism used on immutable systems. They are very attractive (conceptually) for large org deployments, so I can totally see the appeal here
> The sad truth is that the status quo for GUIs is absolutely terrible, and most were rushed out and not properly tested to check if they're really usable without a mouse.
This is the key point. No platform UI paradigm focuses on keyboard navigability and speed, all focus on mouse and visual effects for discoverability in a pursuit to dumb down the user experience enough to make it usable for everyone, breaking power users in the process (and increasingly also accessibility stacks).
I think the real problem is as computers have become more mainstream, they've become more subject to whims of fashion. Consumer-focused companies don't want to be seen wearing last season's UI paradigm. Just watch Apple change things around...
Interesting given this is the polar opposite of my experience. I find Googles AI overview to give wrong answers constantly. Occasionally, even for questions I believe Google circa 2018 was able to answer confidently.
Ironically, Googles AI overview often links to references that state the polar opposite of what the AI overview claims.
I've seen it answering based on a single Reddit, Stackexchange, or even HN source. Sometimes either incorrectly, or taking some side of a debated technical issue and presenting it like a fact.
Just recently I read that it is futile to make AI give out scores like that, as they are pretty much completely made up. Can't find the article anymore, though.
Depends what you mean by people. Outside of the startup space you'll find commercial RDBMS everywhere, especially OracleDB. Not many are running banks or hospitals on Postgres.
> Not many are running banks or hospitals on Postgres.
Certainly not. But the key here is that not many are running banks or hospitals in the first place.
I work at a big company, we run on SAP as the big commercial DBMS, but also have some oracle instances. By number by far the most widespread commercial RDBMS seems to be SQL Server
