Can we? Yes! WIll we? Well, the origin of it is from 40 years ago so... unlikely.
What you gonna do if Bill Gates is ever involved in a scandal? Call it Gatesgate?
It's funny you mention that because Mr. Gates has been involved in about a dozen human trafficking scandals but they fail to report it because can never figure out a working headline.
The part they are leaving out is that everyone will also be installing Linux on those devices because 2017 is finally going to be the year of the Linux Desktop!;)
Seriously, did we have to hear the exact brand and type? A solid object that happened to be a laptop in a backpack is what stopped the bullet. In fact, a textbook or a small stack of magazines would have stopped the bullet equally as well. -_-
While everyone wants a car that can accelerate quickly, there is little point in having one if it cannot compare in a test of endurance. A lot of work went into making the Tesla motor run without overheating or needing an active cooling system so that it could go the maximum distance possible on the least amount of energy. I had serious doubts that this can compare with the same metric but if it can, great!
Elon wants to replace combustion based vehicles with electric. He will need tens to hundreds of Gigafactories to meet demand, plus is also prioritising Powerwalls.
It's worth noting that building the first factory is the hardest part because you have to design all the machines. Once it's running properly, the next the next 10 Gigafactories will be built in a fraction of the time.
Unless I'm missing something, this won't result in "faster computing" but rather having more bandwidth for RAM.
Currently, all computer processors in the market are using the binary system, which is composed of two states – either 0 or 1. For example, the letter A will be processed and stored as 01000001, an 8-bit character.
However, the prototype ReRAM circuit built by Asst Prof Chattopadhyay and his collaborators processes data in four states instead of two. For example, it can store and process data as 0, 1, 2, or 3, known as Ternary number system.
Because ReRAM uses different electrical resistance to store information, it could be possible to store the data in an even higher number of states, hence speeding up computing tasks beyond current limitations.
If they wanted, they could already encode more data per bus line and put a translator by the RAM. However, literally none of this is talking about doing any computing using memory. It kinda seems like maybe a non-technical person wrote this press release.
How many times do we need people to declare the "desktop is dead!" or some other equally preposterous hyperbolic statement? Does someone feel like/. doesn't have enough hyperbole because I will just die if there is someone like that. -_-
When someone "leaks" a press release then it's not leak, it's a strategic press release. A normal press release wouldn't get much attention but a "leaked" press release will. Since the only people benefitting from this is the company that would have made the press release, it's obvious that this was done strategically to get attention ahead of the crowd.
Except they do! it's called the Ministry of Environmental Protection of the People's Republic of China (MEP) and the concerns of the environment come second the economic concerns. A steel plant may be in blatant violation of environmental law but shutting it down until it's in compliance with the law or even slowing down it's output to make the proper repairs/changes is considered to be unacceptable. China actually has decent environmental protections but the problem is that they are not enforced because the Chinese government is being run like a business. In short, China is cranking capitalism up to 11.
I get the feeling that the Chinese government is this "unidentified strategic investor" because they are pushing for cleaner alternatives and they like to control everything, especially their citizens. They may want to remain anonymous because they know they are not trusted in other countries.
I could be totally wrong because it's an educated guess.
One decision that has been made, they said, speaking on the condition of anonymity, is to avoid any moves that exceed the Russian election hacking and risk an escalating cyber conflict that could spiral out of control.
What they really want to do is avoid further embarrassment and the exposure of their total incompetence when it comes to security. They know we are extremely vulnerable but refuse to do anything to rectify the situation. All their dirty secrets should be exposed and the security should be fixed. They will go to war when it's soldiers get blown apart but they won't even raise a hand when the truth could be exposed and it may damage their reputation.
Did Tesla also report any/all instances where the forward collision warning sounded, regardless of whether or not a crash subsequently occurred? Otherwise this is just PR.
Tesla never reported any instances where the forward collision warning sounded. It's hard for it to be PR when it's not Tesla doing the reporting.
Back in 2007, when the project was really last active, Wikipedia was a much different place. One user who occasionally edited "stub" articles -- those with little to no content, often the first on the chopping block for deletion because of their lack of "relevance"
There are still users (like Cahk) that suggest articles for deletion (within one hour) if they don't have enough content, even if there are many other articles already pointing to the article.

Here's a picture of one and it's not what I would call "micro".
The software doesn't allow you to do what you want.

Can we stop adding GATE to every scandal?
Can we? Yes! WIll we? Well, the origin of it is from 40 years ago so... unlikely.

The card complying with an existing standard is about as likely as them coming out with a chip that works in AMD motherboards.

This has been seriously considered.
"Just to supply auto demand you need 200 Gigafactories,"
It's worth noting that building the first factory is the hardest part because you have to design all the machines. Once it's running properly, the next the next 10 Gigafactories will be built in a fraction of the time.
Just when I think, "at least things can't any worse," you slap me in the face and spit on me. -_-

It's a good thing China doesn't have an EPA...

First they Fukoku their clients and then they Fukoku their workers.
What's up with this 'thinner' obsession?
one year at CES, there was an angry gypsy that whispered "thinner" into the microphone and all our electronics have been suffering ever since. ;)
But my preconceived notions! My social justice! ;)

This kind of bullshit will never end.
All the Withings products have been replaced by Withoutings.
What earth-shattering fact are you going to drop on me next, that customer service is insincere when they tell me to have a good day?
