Intel’s new 13th and 14th Gen Core processors, “Raptor Lake” and “Raptor Lake Refresh,” are experiencing issues due to their Ring Bus getting damaged from high voltages. According to sources at Moore’s Law is Dead, Intel engineers believe the Ring Bus is being affected because it uses the same rail as the performance (P-Cores) and … Read more
A team from Hong Kong Polytechnic University introduced LAMBDA, an open-source, code-free multi-agent data analysis system. This innovation bridges the gap between domain experts and advanced AI models, allowing smooth interaction in data science. LAMBDA’s agents work together to analyze data using natural language. The process begins with writing code based on user instructions, then … Read more
Mammals with significant differences in sex sizes have larger gene families for smell-related functions and smaller ones for brain development, according to a new study. Conversely, species with minimal size differences between genders invest more in brain development and complex social behaviors. The findings suggest that sexual size dimorphism (SSD) impacts the evolution of sensory … Read more
The RIMPAC (Rim of the Pacific) exercise, which took place from June to August 2024, saw several advanced anti-ship missiles being fired during ship-sinking drills involving the US Navy and Royal Australian Navy. Professor Alessio Patalano, a war and strategy expert at King’s College London, stated that these long-range missiles extend the range at which … Read more
It seems you have written a lengthy response critiquing an article about Earth’s climate changes and the role of humans in it. You raise several valid points, such as: 1. The Holocene era was not entirely stable and civilizations rose and fell during that period with less climate variability. 2. Climate changes like ice melting … Read more
Intel’s CPU instability and crashing issues affect various models, including non-overclockable ones. Intel is replacing impacted processors but doesn’t plan a recall. The root cause of the crashes is erroneous microcode causing CPUs to ask for excessive voltage. If your CPU has been damaged, it cannot be fixed, and you will need a replacement. The … Read more
A Ferrari executive received several suspicious WhatsApp messages from someone claiming to be CEO Benedetto Vigna, requesting help with a confidential acquisition and asking him to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement. The messages didn’t come from Vigna’s usual number and the profile picture was different but convincing. However, the executive became suspicious when he was asked … Read more
Scientists from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History have analyzed ancient rocks, estimated to be at least 2.5 billion years old, providing insights into Earth’s mantle history and challenging earlier theories about its geologic past. The study reveals that most of Earth’s mantle has maintained a stable oxidation state throughout geological time. Researchers examined … Read more
