Not really. It would be much more like saying that a twenty dollar bill is twenty kilometers in length. Except that the “die” mistake is one order of magnitude more wrong than that.

I noticed that, but couldn’t convince Kinja to let me reply to that article yesterday :-/

No, it’s actually ludicrous. By my math, a 14 nm x 14 nm die would consist of 44 silicon atoms. (A silicon atom is 210 pm, which is 0.21 nm.) How are you going to make billions of transistors out of that?!

A 14nm process means the most important components of the CPU are on 14nm die.

It seems that I didn’t communicate my position adequately. In any case, I’m not disagreeing with you.

Your story check out.

Well, you clearly know where your towel is, at the very least. Nice to sass you.

Are you Ford Prefect?

Your interpretation is absolutely equally valid. But to my eyes, he looked like the thought he was at The Gap.

You have to admire his discernment as a thief. Picks up something he knows isn’t his, unfolds it so he can take a critical look, decides that it’s good enough to steal, and then re-folds it before strolling out.

I imagine in part because people behave differently at different stages of life. Young white couple move into a historically black neighborhood, thinking it’s cool or edgy or just that they can get more house for their money. Then they have kids and move to the suburbs. As the kids get older, the neighborhood…

Even if your significant other has very little experience playing video games, they’ll still have a good time with the story. It might take some adjustment before they really get the hang of moving the camera with the right joystick while walking with the left one, but for the most part, the learning curve is not very…

Counterpoint: I don’t like hoppy beer.

You’re a ten in my book. Give ‘em hell!

I sure hope not. I hope the courts would understand the difference between a company that sells customers streams of unlicensed copyrighted content vs one that sells software that allows customers to stream their own content without making an effort to ensure that content is not unlicensed.

I gather that they’re sending the scans (photographs?) that are produced in the ordinary course of electronic sorting. The only additional burden that you put on the USPS by opting in to this is the marginal cost of one more email (with a few low-res black and white attachments) per day.

That means a lot coming from a pope!

It doesn’t smell like anything to me.

My high paranoia, for some reason, is always that “everyone will know that you’re high!”

Autopens reportedly sell for four figures.
