I was a huge fan of Pocket, sad it went away. As I try to take control of my scrolling, I want to read purposefully. How do I track articles?

Open source silicon is going to space!

Interview of Ola Fadiran, founder of ChipMango, the first semiconductor design company built in sub-Saharan Africa.

I knew it.

It's not really down . . . it's just unreliable?

Fair point, that is pretty much the answer I’m finding for most open source solutions in hardware, you make your money on implementation and support.

If you intend to build a physically chip, short answer is you don’t. You can’t really build it without Taiwan at this point.

I think the EU is making credible attempts to change this.

I think this story is the exception. The supply chain time for hardware is so long, designers are picking their chips out months and years in advance. So you really do have to trust that the supplier will be around to support the hardware in a few months or a few years.

Thanks, how could I have made it stronger?

The company declares bankruptcy, the money is gone. Same as an equity investment.

Agree here, chem may be more complex than language, and not as definable as language. I think this is the realm that physical ai will overlap with.

This is a fantastic option when the only other viable option is to get them a phone. They can text parents, they can be tracked, but they can’t watch stupid YouTube or TikTok videos, and they can’t participate in 95% of the stuff that harms kids at that age.

What’s become the “irresponsible norm” is to not give your kids a phone, which is crazy, because it’s just giving tech companies the ability to manipulate kids.

Australias probably has more to worry about with the snakes and sharks.

Dictatorships are always more efficient in the short run.

It provided the above to a select few that thought the way they were supposed to. It also did NOT provide to a few million that didn’t think the correct way.

Extreme subsidy between the competitors.

Favorite claim they made?

Fascinating, that’s really interesting.

I probably over exaggerated there. But it does seem he was earlier than the team that’s been given credit for it, no?
