Let's fix the math.

Amount of energy consumed from global data centers: 205 terawatt-hours. [0]

Amount of water in the oceans: 1,386,000,000 (km3)~= 1.386*10^21kg[1]

water has a specific heat capacity of: 4,200 J/kg°C [2]

Energy/HeatCapacity/AmountOfWater = 1.268×10^-7 degrees Celsius

There may be specific fit issues for a new artificial leg. Most prosthesis require quite a bit of fit adjustment.

Did no one read the last bit on the people who did the research? there seems to a clear conflict of interest in this paper. " Dr. Small also reports having served as an advisor to and/or having received lecture fees from Allergan, Argentum, Axovant, Cogniciti, Forum Pharma- ceuticals, Herbalife, Janssen, Lundbeck, Lilly, Novartis, Otsuka, and Pfizer. Dr. Heber reports receiving consult- ing fees from Herbalife, and the McCormick Science Institute.The manufacturer of Theracurmin, Theravalues Corpora-tion, provided the Theracurmin and placebo for the trial,funds for laboratory testing of blood curcumin levels, and funds for Dr. Small’s travel to the 2017 Alzheimer’s As- sociation International Conference for presentation of the findings"

Hebei not Hubei

Ah, I missed that. Ya, Hubei would have been a huge stretch, though you might be able to attach that to chongqing.

This is true only after the Norman invasion.

the ESR on MLCCs are negligible

Do people play a lot of graphics intensive games on phones?

I do and the battery only last an hour. We need bigger batteries. CPU speed is never the issue.

Naive question: do faster cores perform slower tasks with more efficiency? In other words, if a game uses 80% of the old processor, but only 50% of the new one, is there an impact on the battery life just by being a faster CPU?

Yes. Especially with multiple cores, gets more work done quicker and the core can shutdown. The core can also scale down where it is presumably more efficient.

It is definitely becoming more common.

Weirdly the normal S7 and edge version passed the test

Modern cores are more like 1V or lower. so more like 100A

That's crazy. Do modern cores not also use local, integrated power regulation? I think I remember an Intel PR release about that, but I don't know the detail.

> Process：Manufacturing with 28nm process

standard Vcc for 28nm is 850-1050mV (varies based on the exact process)

so yeah more like 100A and probably that's all going through the pins without on die power regulation

The inductors are still too big to be on-chip

Intel toyed around with fully integrated inductors even in production but I think they kicked them off chip for thermal reasons.

IIRC, the only part they replaced was the controller IC itself. All of the main power components (switching transistors, filter inductors and capacitors) remained off-chip.

Consider that the VRM's have as much or more silicon in them than in the host processor, and they have completely different breakdown voltage and switching speed requirements relative to a CPU.

Intel only recently introduced this feature, and it surely required a lot of R&D. At the time they were most likely the only one, and may still be.

Then they removed it in their most recent chips...
