Interesting development in optics that could lead to a 10X improvement in energy efficiency and cost of EUV chip production.
Professor Tsumoru Shintake describes a simpler and more efficient mirror pattern that allows for a much smaller EUV light source than the #Trumpf lasers in #ASML equipment.

Incredibly insightful episode of Bits & Chips on the Trumpf collaboration with ASML.
Learned a ton about Trumpf's challenges to bring seed lasers to the fab such as having to keep up with ASMLs product pace, dealing with contaminations in the fab and phasing out the Cymer seed lasers for a Trumpf in-house design. I did not realize that the EUV light source was now fully European-produced.

Rientro a scuola tra divieto dei cellulari, nuova maturitÀ e problemi atavici
@anarchia
E’ suonata la campanella per studenti e studentesse di Regione Lombardia, oltre che per il personale scolastico e docenti. La maggior parte degli studenti farà rientro in classe il 15 settembre, per il primo giorno di scuola. I problemi atavici...Vedi l'articolo

@informapirata ma la risposta a entrambe le domande è "tanto".
(uffa, doveva uscire domani, i tempi ora sono sbagliati. Vabbè, lo sposto surrettiziamente domani pomeriggio)

A1 Bologna-Roma, all'altezza del bivio con l'A11 Firenze-Pisa nord. Questo è uno di quei brevi tratti in cui, guardando verso ovest, solo per pochi metri, si vedono in lontananza la cupola del Brunelleschi e il campanile di Giotto. Chi li vede nella foto?

@Marcoyu Si fa il possibile.

@FraEmme la tua risposta mi sembra perfettamente in linea e onesta

So raw 20.12 fixed-point arithmetic isn't enough for my world<->grid conversions, so I added ad-hoc manual code mixing 20.12 coords with 32.32 constants, which works perfectly!
The fixed-point transition is basically finished, hurray!

New #GeniusLoci article!
The Discordant Cities are never at peace and really upset their (much more powerful) neighbours in their little corner of the continent.

@sinituulia I suspected something like that
but now I sort-of want to try and make some back-of-envelope calculation on how cheap you can get by handsewing thrifted materials with gratis patterns from the internet
(the frigging lot of time option
)
