TSMC's 1.4nm process (A14) is on track for trial production in 2027 and mass production in 2028. The company will forgo High-NA EUV in favor of Low-NA multi-patterning and NanoFlex Pro, while A13—arriving in 2029 with a 97% optical shrink—aims to deliver an edge in yield and cost efficiency.
Windows 11 still supports 8.3 short file names. Disabling them can make a big difference when creating over a million files, but Microsoft warns about removing existing ones. Here is what to know.
Geely combined AI charge management with pulse-based "repair" and says it extends EV battery cycle life by 20%. We look at how slowing degradation differs from restoring lost capacity, and which test conditions remain undisclosed.
A $500-a-month ChatGPT Pro Max plan has surfaced in reports. Using OpenAI's official pricing and speed documents, we compare it with today's Pro plans and sort out what is still unconfirmed about usage limits and Cerebras.
ReactOS has significantly updated its DirectX compatibility layer to align with Wine 10. Here's what the 498,142 lines added actually mean, and what conditions remain around OpenGL, Vulkan, legacy OS support, and testing.
A team at the University of Science and Technology of China has developed an 87Rb atomic magnetometer with a 7cm³ sensor head and under 5W power consumption. Its 10pT/√Hz sensitivity falls short of commercial devices, but it tracks field changes of 25,200nT per second and auto-relocks in under one second. The subway station test demonstrated resilience to disturbances, not submarine detection capability.
A US research team raised the capacity and voltage of a lithium-sulfur battery using a three-electron sulfur reaction. We compare the electrode-level figures, the calculated cell-level value, and the pouch-cell durability test to see what practical use still requires.
US rare earth mine production rose to 51,000 tons in 2025, but USGS data show net import dependency for compounds and metals jumped from 53% to 67%. The bottleneck lies in separation and refining capacity, not mining—a structural gap that could keep China dependence intact into the 2030s.
Microsoft has restructured Copilot into Home, Code, and Autopilot. Based on primary sources, we break down the differences between documents, internal apps, and persistent agents—and the infrastructure that runs them after creation.
South 8 has begun running a semi-automated line for extreme-cold lithium-ion cells. The 5 MWh per year figure is a 2027 capacity target, a different stage from customer prototype work or compliance with U.S. sourcing rules.
