Which is why the proverbial canary is coughing a little, but is still alive.
TSMC announced their new gigafab in Arizona is being sped up with a 100 billion dollar investment to produce and later package the latest 2nm and A16 nodes. Taiwan is always a step ahead because it makes economic sense for it to be. If that stops being the case, then the US will take the lead and China will "Hong Kong" their way into Taiwan.
Unless China starts implementing the "We don't care" stance due to the ongoing trade war, which, judging by this Nvidia move, they're clearly moving towards.
China cares because they have an economic incentive to care. Once that's gone they'll switch their tune quite drastically I would assume and due to the nature of their government structure, quite rapidly, too.
The canary in the Taiwan coal mine is starting to cough a little.
Once China has AI parity or dominance with homegrown chips and the US can produce everything locally or in allied countries, there's little need for the current protections to remain in place.
Apple Maps gets their data from openstreetmap, where anyone can insert a "place" if there's not.one there already.
I think some Japanese person just put up an entry and Apple Maps scooped it up as-is.
The hotel I work for (also in Crete) was listed in the wrong address in Apple Maps and I had to make an openstreetmap account to edit it. It's showing correctly now.
Edit: I went to the place on Apple Maps and it's plain old English in mine, either they corrected it or it's a regional thing. It's not like this on openstreetmap either
Looking ahead, 53% of AOMedia members surveyed plan to adopt AV2 within 12 months upon its finalization later this year, with 88% expecting to implement it within the next two years.
From AOMedia website. So the plan is for it to have AV1 levels of adoption by 2028.
I'll show them mine if they show me theirs.
On a serious note, encryption is just complicated math added on top of ones and zeroes.
They can't really ban that, it'll only make people all the more educated in circumventing such bans and then they're fighting an encryption hydra, becoming stronger with each iteration.
There are current studies about growing entire organs in a lab environment using 3D printed scaffolding and stem cells harvested from the patient, so the final product is 100% compatible and eliminates the need for immunosuppressants.
Still a few decades out for human testing imo but they'd be the first in line.
If we figure that out, artificial blood (which is already making good progress) and finally a way to regenerate brain cells without causing massive brain tumors we can extend life considerably, probably closer to 200 years on extreme cases.
Or, at least, making it to 110 while still having a good quality of life, basically making 100 the new 60.
The working class is kept poor deliberately, so that the fear of losing your job keeps you in line, or else you go hungry.
Not everyone is ready to fight to the detriment of their own family's income for Gaza and that's understandable, it's not the people's fault but the fault of the rich that are getting richer with each bomb dropped.
