Because with tokenized assets/stocks you can trade them 24/24h every day, like Bitcoin.

More trading -> more fees. Like crypto. They want to stoke transaction volume.

And what’s the point? This doesn’t help everyday people. They can’t be glued to the news and a trading platform. Besides couldn’t you do the same without a blockchain?

The point is reply to your question. You asked why use blockchain on the NYSE and I replied.

Yes you can do it with different blockchains, they only chosen the new partner now.

Uhm i don’t understand, the MacBook Neo is really more reparable than other MacBooks, so yes the European law helped. Is what the article says

I tend to agree but we have to see how this (repairabiliy, i mean) happens in practice.

What if replacement parts are super expensive? Like a 200$ battery for a $600 laptop?

Is it really repairable then?

Will compatible parts be allowed? There are a bunch of tricks to prevent unofficial parts from working…

At least it can be easily disassembled, compared to other Apple products. Then the third party components will be available for cheaper prices than Apple.

It’s written in the linked paper:

> Here, we utilise a microcavity quantum battery as an experimental platform that superextensively captures light energy and converts it to an electric current via the incorporation of charge transport layers into the resonant microcavity. This architecture enables, for the first time, a complete quantum battery charge-discharge cycle. We demonstrate that strong light–matter coupling induced by the microcavity leads to superextensive scaling of the steady-state electrical discharging power under low-intensity, incoherent illumination. Our results provide the first experimental demonstration of superextensive light-to-charge conversion in steady-state, highlighting the feasibility of leveraging strong light–matter coupling for enhanced energy harvesting under low-light conditions.

Ohhh, I assumed a paywall. Thank you! What a thoroughly interesting reading that was! Poor Einstein would find all of it preposterous.

Yes, they were present and not much expensive than standard ones. However, the issue was that they encountered problems/data loss after few rewrites.

Except that according TFA they can actually last thousands of rewrite cycles.

Indeed, I posted it because my experience was different, perhaps due to my DVD writer or my settings. After 10- 15 rewrites, I almost always encountered issues

The article doesn’t mention the details, it just says:

> Ukraine Defense Drones makes most of its own components, and European suppliers fill most of the gaps.

Anyway I guess they can be STmicro electronics, NXP, Infineon…

I wonder from which foundries they used for those very SOCs.

Those manufacturers have their foundries in Europe, France, Italy, Germany, etc...

Maybe because they are "robust" chips, probably far away from the best silicon process, and when I mean best, I mean 'with the smallest features.'

Yes but you don’t need 2/3nm chip in a drone! STmicro is a global leader in many sectors for example, like automotive chips, probably Ukraine is using those chips.

I wonder what is the silicon process for the SOC in those drones. Really.

Do they have RISC-V CPUs, or are they just arm slaves?

Here's the report: https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/blog/date/2026/html/ecb.blog...

"The idea" is one thing, seeing it concretely, seeing companies laying off 40% of workers or losing 20% in a stock exchange session is another.

> But I know that using in AI in software engineering reduces productivity by almost 20%.

So why are these companies losing billions in a few months?!

Are the big hedge funds stupid or is a pre-print not considered reliable?

Yes, but this has a real effect on the economy. Additionally, it's not solely related to the stock market. Look at the announcement from Bloc yesterday about cutting 40% of their workforce due to AI (in example), or the memory shortage due to AI datacenters on the other side.

Sure but “SaaS Apocalypse” is a new thing, also the “selling on high CAPEX expenditures”.

I mean to say that a year ago there was talk on forums of "fear of AI replacing developers" but companies were not losing 20/30% in one day because of this.

Now, besides talking about it among nerds, the situation is having a real impact in the economic/financial world.

Because it’s Chinese propaganda, just a bit of advertising for the car. It’s carnewschina.com after all.
