Re:TSMC unveils 1.6nm process technology with backside power delivery

While you are correct that it is Intel trying to catch TSMC, you are wrong about the origin of backside power delivery. The idea originated at Intel sometime ago, but it would be very ironic if TSMC implements it before Intel...

One major difference between Oumuamua and Ultima Thule, is that Ultima Thule is very accurately following a known gravitational trajectory. Oumuamua is not, and that factors greatly into the astronomer's point of view.

Thanks for the sources. The Nature paper is very informative.

Most of these ice mass measurements are made using GRACE not physical height / GPS measurements. Ice mass loss appears to be accelerating by multiple forms of measurement.

Any investor should know what they're getting into when investing in a high risk experiment like "Hyperloop". I'm just calling B.S. on it's some sort of scam.

>>This project is nothing more than a scam to fetch investors money.
I'm unaware of Musk asking for any particular investment in a Hyperloop project. Most Hyperloop projects are independent parties working on the idea on their own volition. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Fracking shale oil is a bad investment. Most of the drilling and exploration companies heavily involved in shale oil "tight oil" fracking are suffering financially due to poor estimates of well productivity and longevity. The primary reason for low oil prices in the Permian is due to a lack of pipeline in that region. The US is not actually self-sufficient in regards to crude oil used to refine into gasoline and other fuel products.
Re:NASA Designed a Low-Tech Rover to Survive Venus

I used to do research in a lab which studied extreme temperature electronics using Silicon Carbide CMOS. These electronics are able to handle over 450 C ambient temperatures and may be able to survive in the Venusian atmosphere with minimal shielding. Looks like they started a company and have funding for jet engine electronics.
