the one they are pounding in the mature chip market

by

Semiconductor manufacturers have a strategic role for the Taiwan government. And they have it because the chips are fundamental for the support of their economy. TSMC leads the industry of the manufacture of integrated circuits with an approximate quota of 60%. And, in addition, other Taiwanese companies, such as UMC (United Microelectronics Corporation) or PSMC (Powerchip semiconductor manufacturing corporation), they have a very prominent role in this industry. However, the business of the three companies I just mentioned is different. TSMC specializes in the production of High integration semiconductorsso it competes mainly in the avant -garde chip market. This is the reason why Apple, Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm or MediaTek, among other technology companies. TSMC is indisputably Taiwan’s jewelbut this does not mean that the business of the other Taiwanese chips manufacturers is not relevant. The strength of UMC, PSMC and other companies on the island reside in the competitiveness that they have sustained for years in the market of mature integrated circuits. These are the semiconductors that are mostly used in cars, appliances or electronic devices, among other products, and usually occur in nodes of 28 nm or less advanced. However, the future of these medium -term companies is uncertain. And it is because China has proposed to dominate The mature chip market. And he is getting it. Taiwan is already losing the market of mature integrated circuits The Taiwanese government does not want to lose its strength in this industry, but its future is not entirely promising. In fact, the IDC consultant He has predicted that your participation in the global sector of integrated circuits manufacturing will be reduced from 46% to 43% in 2027. However, this is not all. According to the TrendForce consultant China’s quota in the mature chip market has reached 34% in 2024, while Taiwan amounted to 43%. However, according to this same source in 2027, China’s participation will clearly exceed Taiwan. China’s quota in the mature chip market has reached 34% in 2024 The semi association (Semiconductor equipment and materials international), which represents the semiconductor industry and their supply chains, provides that Of the 97 new integrated circuit factories that have started or will start large -scale production between 2023 and 2025, 57 They will be housed in China. And most of the latter will be dedicated mainly to the manufacture of mature chips with the purpose of consolidating the domain of the country led by Xi Jinping in a market in which it has more and more weight. China’s interest in the mature chip industry is the response of this country to US sanctions and its allies that prevent their manufacturers from accessing the most advanced lithography equipment than produces the Dutch company ASML. At this situation, Taiwanese chips manufacturers only have one option, As Frank Huang explainsPresident of PSMC: “The factories of mature nodes like ours must be transformed. Otherwise Chinese price cuts will affect us even more.” This transformation in practice will gradually abandon the production of mature semiconductors to turn to the manufacture of high integration chips.

The iPhone is seen in its greatest filtration to date. It is a crazy night between iPhone 14 and iPhone 8

by

The fourth generation of iPhone se It will launch this week, According to the most recent leaks. It is not unreasonable to think that it will be, since the design of this phone has just been known practically. The filtration shows that, supposedly, will be the iPhone stops this 2025, a phone that would inherit components of the iPhone 14betting on his classic strategy of just one camera. Hi, iPhone 14 … or iPhone 12. Notch, you again here. It seemed to have disappeared with the arrival of the iPhone 15 Basethat hugged the Dynamic island of the iPhone 14 Probut I was just Parranda. According to the leaks, the iPhone will be inherited a frontal front of previous models, with notch but a good screen use. This would be 6.1 inches, OLED and with Full HD+resolution, the same one we have seen on the iPhone of previous years and with less than the 2,000 nits implemented from the iphone 15L. What does not appear anywhere is the action button, Apple’s last idea for its generation iPhone 16. The rear … to the iPhone style. How strange it is seen a mobile phone with a single camera. This iPhone would arrive with a single sensor, predictably 48 megapixels, which would allow it to make “optical” (sensor cut) of up to two increases without loss of quality. The resignation of the ultra wide angle may seem more serious than it really is. This is the camera less uses (and of lower quality) in general terms, so sacrificing it to adjust the price of the phone to the maximum it is not a bad idea. The rest of the hardware. Apple would not want to give up Apple Intelligence with its se, which would force the company to implement the Apple A18 Bionic and a minimum of 8 GB of RAM. As a curious fact, it is rumored that this phone would arrive with its own modem for 5G, to save costs compared to Qualcomm. In short, a 2025 hardware device and airs a few years ago, at a price that is expected below 600 euros. An access alternative for those who want a new iPhone without spending too much.

“Festival of cycloogenesis in the middle of the Atlantic”.

by

Behind him Vodevil of the ‘Beast of the East’ and the anticyclonic wall last week, the thing will change radically in the Atlantic. And, in the next few days, the polar jet “He will take run“And the ocean will live an authentic”Festival of cycloogenesis“ It will only need a little luck so that this “festival” passes over Spain. “Festival of Cycogenesis”? Yes, we return to another week of creativity in terms of weather communication. However, as usual, the expression is not free: in the next few days the “anticyclonic wall” will disappear, but Blocking anticyclone in Scandinavia It will continue to entry next week. That opens a route so that, from the Atlantic, storms enter more easily. And they will take advantage of it. It is expected that, in the middle of the week, a cold air embolism will join a small storm from the Azores and will impact with the west of the peninsula. Right now, the models indicate that it will arrive weakened; But, as with these structures, it is very difficult to know what will happen until we know where exactly will be located. But that’s not the fat. The “fat” is a true turn to the country’s meteorological situation. Because shortly after, the Scandinavian anticyclone will begin to move towards Greenland and that will make LA stream current down more than usual. That can end up generating a huge storm train entering the west. In fact, today, the most likely scenario is that: the successive impact of a series of deep depressions from the Atlantic. The problem is that it remains Even too much time. That is, we do not know the details: it can be a fantastic week of water in abundance or a huge succession of storms that put in trouble in the middle country. What can we expect? Little for now. In the most likely stage, we will see how the fronts will happen throughout the week and The rain will reach the whole country (with lower incidence in the Canary Islands and the southeast of the Peninsula). For the rest, little is known: They are not clear either the temperatures or the most affected areas. Only a few days are coming and that, since The ghost of drought never abandons usIt is not bad news.

has shown a secret project ahead of time

by

A few days ago, Apple published in his research blog A video showing Elecnt, an experimental robot-lamina, thus breaking its traditional policy of absolute secrecy on developing products. Why is it important. It is the first time in the recent history that Apple publicly reveals a project before its commercial launch. This change speaks for itself and suggests a new strategy of the company in the race for AI and domestic robotics: a somewhat more public and open. Not without reasons. Between bambalins. The robot shown is an articulated lamp, speaker and integrated projector that responds to gestures and voice commands, reminds a lot of the famous pixar lamp. The device makes expressive movements that emulate human emotions: It moves “curious” when exploring its surroundings. Simulates sadness crouching his head when he receives a “no.” Dance when music sounds. Adjust your position to better illuminate user work. And above all, not only moves, but does it in human, emotional form. In perspective. This movement comes after Bloomberg will reveal that Apple is developing domestic robots With an estimated price of $ 1,000 by 2026-2027, thus entering direct competition with Amazon and Google in the market for intelligent domestic attendees. He also anticipated a somewhat early arrival of domestic devices whose screen would be located on an articulated and motorized arm that “follows” the user in the room. Already common technologies, such as Center Stage or Cented Framego right in that direction. What is happening. Apple seems to be testing the public’s reaction to more “human” and expressive robotic interfaces, moving away from minimalism that has characterized its products in the last decade. On the other hand, this opening and the fact that it has been shown in your blog about Machine Learning They leave another possibility open: that Apple is looking to position themselves in the AI ​​and robotics market to attract talent. A way to proclaim the world that she also has plans in those fields. Deepen. The academic publication that accompanies the video explains that users interact more and better with robots that show expressiveness than with those purely functional, especially in social tasks. And there it seems to be a clear proposal: towards the expressiveness of the robot and not only to cold and functional movements.

We tell you what we know and how to solve it

by

The problems begin. On February 2, Movistar clients They started reporting incidents in the service. Some users such as Daniel Galán indicated that “it seems that Movistar is blocking the connections to websites (among them mine) who use Cloudflare or are having routing problems. It occurs only with fiber, from mobile networks it does not happen. In other companies it works perfectly. Is something known? ” The problem seems to affect only fiber connections, since from the mobile those affected could access those services. Operators such as Digi also seem to have given problems in recent days, According to networks. Confusing answers. One of Movistar’s technicians replied in the forum indicating that “we can assure you that Movistar does not make website blockages.” Some users indicated in X how to Movistar He temporarily activated them Unlimited data in your mobile lines. Another indicated days later that “we are presenting a problem in the relationship with these servers and the routing to access certain pages on the web, about the problem we already have proof of this and we hope to solve it as soon as possible, any novelty in this regard we will do it to you know” “At the end of football, everything returns to normal”. The problem, confirmed other members of the Movistar community, affected various websites apparently housed in Cloudflare. Among them are blogs, various services And even some Github repositories Like those who stay AI models to download and use with Ollama. It was mentioned how there were even problems to access Platforms such as Telegram, Instagram or Bluesky. A user indicated that “casually, at the end of the (…) soccer of the (…) worked again everything perfectly.” Others commented the same in the Movistar community forum. It is speculated with football and IPTV. In recent days it has been speculated with the potential reason for these problems, which would be in measures to try to avoid access to IPTV platforms that among other things issue LaLiga matches. Precisely this organism He announced yesterday that “Duckvision, a pirate platform that offered illegal access to live sports content, among them the Spanish competition, to more than 200,000 people only in Spain.” In that statement they also highlighted how “Google, Cloudflare, VPNS and other agents involved in piracy consumption acquire responsibility for the illegal actions that are allowing and from which they profit.” Economic damage. The problems were not only limited to the customers of these operators could not access certain websites, but to the fact that some users have companies with web sites and services that depend on that connectivity. So Ángel Gaitan indicateda well -known automotive expert youtuber. “Everything I have not sold today to all those customers of Movistar (who could not access their website), who pays me?” An analysis tries to reveal the problem. As they point out In Bandanchaan analysis by one of its users details something else the potential problem. When using “probes” in Ripe Atlas you can see how only concrete IP addresses of Cloudflare are affected, but not adjacent, which points according to this analysis to an intentional blockade. IP 104.21.48.1 is owned by Cloudflare, but is used to serve hundreds of web that share it. When trying to access with a Movistar IP, the route is interrupted. A code appears from other operators such as Orange that warns that a website is being blocked by the competent authority. Cloudflare and the ECH. In October 2023, our genbeta companions already They talked to us of a mechanism that tries to avoid filtering systems of the operators that take these types of measures. It is called ECH (Encrypted Client Hello) and Cloudflare integrated it in their services precisely on those dates. It is an extension of the TLS protocol that is part of the data to “limit access to the information of a private user when you access your website.” Operators have more difficult to block services more specifically, but they can still block full access to that “central” IP that actually emphasizes many web sites and services. The only safe solution: Use a VPN. Those affected who managed to solve the problem did so thanks to the use of A VPN connection that allowed to avoid the blockade of the affected websites. That allows to camouflage the IP of origin to avoid being shown as an IP from Movistar and gives access to these services. What Movistar and Digi say. In Xataka we have contacted those responsible for Movistar/O2 and Digi, but for now we have not received an additional response or clarifications about these problems. We will update this information in case of receiving new data. In Xataka | LaLig

Deepseek is not a passenger fashion. It is the future of AI for Chinese mobiles

by

Apple has been the first company to ally with OpenAi for introduce chatgpt as a complement to your own assistantSiri. Samsung has done the same with Gemini, which He works in the pair with Bixby at his ultra galaxy s25and manufacturers as honor have also op Magic7 Pro Honor. In Europe, we seem to be clear that Chatgpt and Gemini will be the two key solutions to enhance phones through AI. But in China they have a new ally. One that we have known for just a few weeks and that already has integration plans with some of the main Chinese manufacturers. Yes, we talk about Deepseek. Honor will open the ban. Honor has officially announced Deepseek’s integration into its assistant yoyo. Although this function, at least in Spain, is not too popular, is important for the company. Yoyo is the smart wizard in the honor ROM, and users in China will be able to use Deepseek within it. What will be able to do? Improve Yoyo capabilities when processing natural language, as well as its logical reasoning and contextual compression. It is already available on all honor phones with Magicos 8.0 or posterior, and just update to version 80.0.1.503 to be able to use it. At the moment, only in China. Nubia climbs into the car. Nor Fei, president of Nubia, has also announced Through Weibo The future integration of Deepseek into its phones. The company is already testing it in its Nubia Z70 Ultrawith plans to integrate it into the system deeply. They clarify that they do not want to create a mere access to direct to the chatbot, but adapt it within the system and get it completely in the operating system. In this case, there is no announced date. A much faster integration. Deepseek has been accessible to the public for less than a month. Chatgpt has been with us for more than two years. It impacts the speed with which Chinese manufacturers are hugging Deepseek, a national alternative to OpenAi AI, and whose data control “remains at home.” While Chatgpt raised as the reference AI, Android is still from Google, and the company is fighting for Gemini to be the model to be implemented. With honor and cloudy climbing to the ship in China, it is plausible to think about future integrations with more manufacturers. Now, the doubt is whether Deepseek will remain as an alternative only for the models with Chinese ROM, or if it will end up doing the competition to Chatgpt and Gemini in the European Roms framework itself. The nervousness of the big surprise with this China is clear: There are governments trying to veto it at all costs.

All new films trailers for this year that have been seen in the Super Bowl 2025

by

The Super Bowl is, every year, the most luxurious showcase in the world to show future premieres. They are also a perfect thermometer what will be the most juicy cultural events of the year that has just begun. In the 2025 Super Bowl we have detected less overwhelming trailers than other years, especially because of ‘the fantastic four’ He advanced a few days so that no one would take prominence. But there are still a few survivors who shone in this year’s Super Bowl. Impossible mission 8: final sentence Very brief but shocking trailer that makes clear a couple of things: that this latest installment of the franchise starring Tom Cruise will be interconnected with the rest of the previous films of the saga; and that the actor has played his life again in Stunts Chiflados that we can glimpse here that include a wild pirouette hung from an ultralight. Jurassic World: The Renacer Although we had just five days ago a new trailer of the restart of the ‘Jurassic World’ franchise, with a scarlett Johansson very well in front, the Super Bowl has given us new images in a new teaser. Few developments in this new advance, but some unpublished images that allow us to verify that the size of the saurios of this delivery is huge. Thunderbolts The most generous trailer of the night was also Marvel’s only: another advance of ‘Thunderbolts’ that, really, does not look bad. At last we have the opportunity to see that super -powerful entity that is to use its devastating powers at full power, although its final appearance is still scammed. Humor, actors and cars flying through the air in which it can be the great SLEEPER Marvel for this year. Lilo and Stitch Instead of any advance of the next remake in the real image of the classic, Disney has preferred to give the touch of originality of the night, inserting alien destroy This new incarnation. How to train your dragon One of the most anticipated remakes of the year is this version of the popular animated franchise of dragons and medieval fighting. Little thing we have not seen before, but we do have a quick look at the battles on the back of the tooth, which promise more colossal and spectacular than ever. Novocaine If you ask us, our most anticipated action movie of the year. Jack Quaid, directly out of ‘The Boys’, is the protagonist of this comedy in which he gives life to a conventional guy, but cannot feel pain. What makes him … a superhero? More or less. F1 Of absolute infarction it seems that it will be the new of Brad Pitt, directed by Joseph Kosinski, signatory of ‘Top Gun: Maverick’. Pitt slides through the entrails of the World Formula 1 championship, where not only the faces will be seen with Javier Bardem, but also with real pilots such as Lewis Hamilton or Charles Leclerc, since the right was shot during the celebration of real races.

Starliner astronauts will return home 287 days later. Another ship change has forced to modify the plans

by

NASA has decided to advance the return of the CREW-9 mission and, with it, that of the Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams astronauts, who left for the International Space Station on June 5, 2024 in the Boeing Starliner ship. Despite Elon Musk and Donald Trump messagesreason is not political, but operational. A few days of advance. If new delays on their trip, Butch and Suni will not return will return home on March 19. Taking into account that they were launched to space for a week, it is nine months after planned. But if we stick to The last date that NASA managedastronauts will return with a few days of advance. Context. In June 2024, Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams left towards the ISS aboard the Starliner space capsule, Boeing’s alternative to the Crew Dragon ship of Spacex. It was the first manned trip of the Boeing spacecraft, and it was assumed that the last certification test before starting to transport astronauts regularly to the International Space Station. However, shortly after its launch, The Starliner experienced serious problems in its propulsion systemwhich forced to suspend his return. The situation lasted several months until NASA decided that the ship returned empty. This accident left astronauts at the space station and forced NASA to find a different solution for its return. What they are waiting for. Once the destiny of the Starliner, Wilmore and Williams decided, they became part of the permanent crew of the ISS. They work in the experiments in orbit and the maintenance of the station. They have even made space walks: Wilmore has two on this mission, and has become The woman with more hours of extravehicular activity. So that they could return, NASA He booked two empty seats on the Crew-9 mission of Spacex. The Crew Dragon ship in which they will return to Earth has been coupled to the ISS since September Station maintenance. And the CREW-10 mission is not yet ready. Another change of ship. The CREW-10 mission was supposed to take off in a new Crew Dragon ship, called C213, which has not yet flown to space. However, a technical incidence, apparently related to the ship’s batteries, forced to delay its first flight at least until the end of April. Instead of continuing to delay the calendar (and with it, the return of Wilmore and Williams), NASA has opted for a logistics maneuver: Reassign to the CREW-10 mission an already tested shipthe C210 ‘Endurance’, which was preparing to fly with the private axiom-4 mission in spring. Thanks to this ship change, Crew-9’s return not only is not delayed, but is ahead of a few days. New dates. NASA plans to launch the CREW-10 mission on March 12, 2025, which would allow the CREW-9 to return on March 19 with Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams on board, along with their companions Nick Hague (NASA) and Aleksandr Gorbunov (from the Russian agency Roscosmos). This change of dates responds, as we have seen, to a technical and operational issue, but explains why Elon Musk and Donald Trump published on social networks that Spacex would rescue the two astronauts “abandoned in the ISS” as soon as possible. A propaganda narrative of what was really happening after the curtain.
