ARM is taking an important step and is moving the vast majority of its design (EDA), automation, and development workloads to Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Developing new SoC models is not an easy task and can take months, or even years, with high computational infrastructure costs. ARM now offloads core workloads to AWS, it'll use Graviton2 instances with Arm Neoverse N1 cores. ARM will be developed on ARM: sounds ironic, but it is.

ARM plans to leverage agile resource consumption in the cloud to generate significant budget savings — the ability to quickly scale workloads is ideal for development workloads that require parallel simulations and repeated test runs that are resource intensive but not sustained.

ARM calculated that moving to the cloud will reduce its data center footprint by at least 45% and reduce its computing load by 80%.

It is first move as actual control in ARM already slowly slide to NVIDIA managers (despite that things are not approved yet).

US want to use AWS cloud as hostage situation, as now it will be very hard to not approve things. Because will held 100% of all private information and design documents, having ability to just sack all actual developers and hire new ones at any moment.

The future of the CentOS Project is CentOS Stream, and over the next year we’ll be shifting focus from CentOS Linux, the rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), to CentOS Stream, which tracks just ahead of a current RHEL release. CentOS Linux 8, as a rebuild of RHEL 8, will end at the end of 2021. CentOS Stream continues after that date, serving as the upstream (development) branch of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Meanwhile, we understand many of you are deeply invested in CentOS Linux 7, and we’ll continue to produce that version through the remainder of the RHEL 7 life cycle.

CentOS Stream will also be the centerpiece of a major shift in collaboration among the CentOS Special Interest Groups (SIGs). This ensures SIGs are developing and testing against what becomes the next version of RHEL. This also provides SIGs a clear single goal, rather than having to build and test for two releases. It gives the CentOS contributor community a great deal of influence in the future of RHEL. And it removes confusion around what “CentOS” means in the Linux distribution ecosystem.

When CentOS Linux 8 (the rebuild of RHEL8) ends, your best option will be to migrate to CentOS Stream 8, which is a small delta from CentOS Linux 8, and has regular updates like traditional CentOS Linux releases. If you are using CentOS Linux 8 in a production environment, and are concerned that CentOS Stream will not meet your needs, we encourage you to contact Red Hat about options.

They now want to offer you unstable alpha version of their RHEL software so you will be tester under the name of CentOS Stream, meaning that it is fully unsuitable for uses where people use present CentOS.

Fun :-)

It is time to look up for sites who rate male classmates as it can save democracy, I guess.

Sharp made first Alexa-capable microwaves, the mid-size SMC1139FS and the larger SMC1449FS. Both ovens will take the expected voice commands from Alexa devices for tasks like defrosting meat, but they’re also uniquely tuned for Orville Redenbacher popcorn. Ask Amazon’s helper to “microwave classic popcorn” and a standard bag should be ready for your next at-home movie.

The range of commands varies based on the model. While the base model has roughly 30 voice commands and 10 more voice-only presets, the larger SMC1449FS has over 70 commands and about 50 voice-only presets for food ranging from broccoli to chicken wings. You shouldn’t be left scrambling if you don’t have microwave cooking instructions, at least with the bigger version.

It seems like this guys did not learn a dime.

In good microwave three things matter:

1. Big start button with +30 second function, easy to clean panel, it must not move and must not click (as it'll be dirt of it'll wear out).
2. Big stop button with time reset on second press
3. Big nice glowing timer screen, preferably green visible from any angle, even 89 degrees, not LCD

And almost forgot - it must be build like a tank, and not like modern shite.

Can check some top of the line Samsung microwaves 10-17 years ago.
