“I don’t think we will see a near-term impact, as it takes years to build fabs, but by the end of the decade, the US share could rise by a few percentage points,” Gupta said. “It’s hard to give an exact number, but if I were to estimate, I’d say 14-15%. That isn’t a lot, but for the US to gain share, someone else must lose it, and while the US is making efforts, we…

If the various points made in the inquiry are dissected, said Maisto, “we can argue that: a) it is not actually true that cloud customers face a limited choice of providers as there are plenty of cloud vendors; b) it is unlikely that the US hyperscalers may not reflect the evolving business needs of UK clients; c) the significant barriers to entry and expansion in this market are not the hyperscalers’ fault but rather a…

“If you are affected or compromised, then this becomes such a challenge,” he added. “First, it’s re-imaging or, in some cases, hardware replacement, depending on the depth of the infection. Most of the time, deleting and replacing the firmware from scratch is enough, but Juniper may be of more assistance. Secondarily, there is a J-Door infection on your router how did it get there? If you are impacted, someone has executed scripts on your device,”…

CFOTO/Contributor/Getty Images A new player has entered the AI villa, and it’s creating significant disruption.  Chinese AI startup DeepSeek made waves last week when it released the full version of R1, the company’s open-source reasoning model that can outperform OpenAI’s o1. On Monday, App Store downloads of DeepSeek’s AI assistant — which runs V3, a model DeepSeek released in December — topped ChatGPT, which had previously been the most downloaded free app.  Also: I tested DeepSeek’s R1 and…

When network traffic is heavy, it is most efficient, and delivers the best performance, to disable interrupts and run in polling mode. But when network traffic is light, interrupt-driven processing works best, he noted. “An implementation using only polling would waste a lot of resources/energy during times of light traffic. An implementation using only interrupts becomes inefficient during times of heavy traffic. … So the biggest energy savings arise when comparing to a high-performance always-polling…

Years ago, we were lucky to have one or two Linux laptop options. Now, you’d be surprised at how many laptops are sold with Linux installed, making it an excellent time for programmers to use the open-source alternative to Windows and MacOS. Linux-based laptops are also great for high school and college students looking to expand their knowledge and skillsets. Linux can also run on many Windows laptops, which is great for beginners who may…

Like R1, DeepSeek’s flagship model, Janus-Pro is open source under an MIT license (making it commercially viable) and downloadable via HuggingFace and GitHub.  Also: I tested DeepSeek’s R1 and V3 coding skills – and we’re not all…

A new laptop is an investment, and making it last is essential to maximizing its value. To care for your new laptop, you’ll want to minimize the amount of bumps and vibrations it’s exposed to and keep it closed when not in use to protect the keys and screen, which can be fragile.  Maximizing your laptop’s battery life is also part of its longevity, as it’s best to keep it between 30% and 80% to…
