Silicon Tears.

Este episodio te sumerge en la historia de una de las frases más célebres de Silicon Valley: "Real Men Have Fabs" ("Los hombres de verdad tienen fábricas"). Descubre cómo Walter Jeremiah "Jerry" Sanders III, cofundador de Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), acuñó esta provocadora declaración en los años 90 como un ataque directo a los competidores emergentes sin fábricas (fabless). Para Sanders, poseer y controlar las plantas de fabricación de semiconductores, conocidas como "fabs", no era solo una estrategia, sino una declaración de seriedad, poder y compromiso en la industria, apoyada por un modelo de Fabricante de Dispositivos Integrados (IDM) que dominó la época.

En este episodio, exploraremos el fascinante mundo del Diseño Asistido por Computadora para Tecnología (TCAD), una disciplina clave en la industria de semiconductores. Descubriremos cómo las herramientas de software Silvaco Athena y Atlas actúan como una verdadera "Fábrica Virtual" (Virtual Fab), revolucionando el diseño y la optimización de chips.

Auburn University scientists have developed a new class of materials that lets researchers precisely control free electrons, a breakthrough that could reshape the future of computing and chemical manufacturing. 


[Verse 1]
In the quiet labs where diamonds gleam,
Auburn whispers secrets in a silicon dream.
They tether ghosts of charge to stone,
Let electrons roam where they've never been alone.
No chains of atoms, no rigid cage-
Just open channels on a crystalline stage.
[Pre-Chorus]
From islands of qubits to metallic seas,
They bend the rules with molecular keys.
[Chorus]
Oh, free electron, dance through the void,
Unbound and fearless, no longer employed
By the pull of the nucleus, the weight of the core-
You're the spark of tomorrow, forevermore.
Hey, hey, let the current flow,
In the heart of the breakthrough, watch the future grow.
[Verse 2]
Catalysts awaken in the dead of night,
Turning fuel to fire with a softer light.
Quantum gates flicker in binary grace,
Solving riddles that time can't erase.
Stable surfaces hold what once fell apart,
A bridge from theory to beating heart.
[Pre-Chorus]
Physicists and chemists in harmony sing,
What the mind conceives, the hand can bring.
[Chorus]
Oh, free electron, dance through the void,
Unbound and fearless, no longer employed
By the pull of the nucleus, the weight of the core-
You're the spark of tomorrow, forevermore.
Hey, hey, let the current flow,
In the heart of the breakthrough, watch the future grow.
[Bridge]
No more unstable dreams that fade with the dawn,
These electrides stand when the chaos is gone.
From sensors to circuits, from labs to the street,
The world rewires at our wandering feet.
[Final Chorus]
Oh, free electron, dance through the void,
Unbound and fearless, no longer employed.
We tamed the untamable, set the wild ones free-
Now the machines will dream what we dare to see.
Hey, hey, let the current flow,
In the heart of the breakthrough, watch the future glow.
[Outro]
(Softly, fading)
Auburn lights the way… electrons play…

OFE² provides high-throughput optical linear algebra essential for AI acceleration, while 2D quantum mirrors promise tunable nonlinear and quantum-enhanced operations. Together, they address key barriers—speed, energy, and integration—paving the way for photonic-dominant systems in data centers, edge AI, and quantum-classical hybrids


[Verse 1]
In the quiet of the lab where the lasers hum low,
Electrons are crawling, but the photons let go.
Twelve-point-five gigahertz in a flicker of glass,
OFE squared on the chip, leaving circuits in the past.
No more copper veins choking on heat,
Just waves in the waveguide, dancing discrete.
[Pre-Chorus]
Edge of the mirror, two-D confine,
Terahertz trapped in a crystalline line.
Quantum reflections where matter meets gleam,
We're rewriting the rules in a parallel beam.
[Chorus]
Turn the light on, let the silicon fade,
Matrix in motion, no delay in the trade.
From CT shadows to the trader's command,
We compute at the speed of the wave in our hand.
Light over silicon, the future's unfurled-
AI at the speed of the world.
[Verse 2]
Diffraction operator etched in the stone,
Phase array shifting, never alone.
Picoseconds ticking like sparks in the dark,
Relief and engraving, leaving their mark.
Graphene whispers to TMD skies,
Plasmon polaritons open their eyes.
[Pre-Chorus]
No external cage, just the edge of the flake,
Self-made cathedral where the light waves break.
From the lab in Beijing to the edge of the night,
We're trading in darkness for rivers of light.
[Chorus]
Turn the light on, let the silicon fade,
Matrix in motion, no delay in the trade.
From CT shadows to the trader's command,
We compute at the speed of the wave in our hand.
Light over silicon, the future's unfurled-
AI at the speed of the world.
[Bridge]
No more bottlenecks, no thermal regret,
Just coherent frontiers where the data is set.
Hybrid tomorrow, but the photon leads,
Silicon steps back-light plants the seeds.
[Final Chorus]
Turn the light on, watch the old world dissolve,
Every problem a pattern that the photons resolve

Silicon No More

Il treno AI è bello che partito e con multipli che non m hanno mai convinto. Però che cosa dovrà essere prodotto in grande quantità sia che OpenAI sopravviva sia che fallisca? Questa puntata mi è partita guardando dei benchmark tra cluster di Mac mini e cluster di GPU. Per via della memoria unificata i Mac mini avevano delle performance, per alcuni task, uguali o migliori delle GPU. Non per la potenza di calcolo ma per via il bottleneck ridotto nello spostare informazioni tra le varie memorie, dato che appunto hanno un blocco di memoria unico per tutto. E quindi nasce la curiosità del Cabana verso le memorie, quali sono i tre player maggiori e dove verranno installate oltre che nei datacenter?

Memorie RAM i badili per l'AI? Bitcoin Cabana Podcast ep 6.6

The lads were delighted to welcome back special guest Gabriel Brown of analyst firm Omdia. Pausing only to reflect on some mixed sporting news, they get straight into the big new of the week, which emanated from Nokia’s capital markets day. It was the opportunity for Nokia’s newish CEO to reveal his cunning plan for the company. Given events that preceded, that inevitably leads to discussion of Nvidia’s increasing influence over Nokia and the telecoms world in general, before they conclude by reflecting on a recent event held by BT International.

Curated by Oakland’s own Paul Xavier, Yay Threads Radio is the official sound of the streets that built the brand. More than mixes—it’s a culture drop. Bay Area underground gems, every set carries the same energy, vision, and hustle that defines Yay Threads streetwear.

This is where fashion meets frequency, where the Yay Area voice gets amplified, and where raw Oakland roots ride every beat. Tune in, lock in, and rep the movement.

Once a week we get together in a studio somewhere in London to take the piss out of telecoms and technology for an hour or so.
