Generally the x um or y nm of a process refers to transistor dimensions (typically gate length), not metal. Minimum metal pitch is still a key dimension for the ability to build useful structures though, so advances…
No, you want to compare Watts, not Volts, as Watts measures power and Volts is just potential. A 15A 110V outlet can supply 1500W continuous (1.5kW). A 4kW DC charger is almost three times higher power than this.
If a battery is internally a set of connected cells, then as a battery designer you have the choice of wiring the cells in series or parallel. Need more voltage: series. Need more mAh: parallel. Cell 'quality' is a…
We use a Roku with an LG OLED, mostly to avoid connecting the TV to the internet. Turns out if you use the HDMI ARC for audio (we connected to a soundbar) and everything in the chain is new enough, then the Roku remote…
You're right that the collector and emitter are not identical in size nor geometry nor surface area bordering the base. There's a nice cross-section about three-quarters of the way down this page[1] that shows the basic…
In case you weren't aware, the US also pursued nuclear powered airplanes[1] with actual test units built. They're still sitting out there in Idaho a few miles off the highway and you can visit certain times of the year.…
I think it has more to do with design rules for metal layers. Between the rules for: min area, max area, min density, max density, and density gradient it can be tough to get artwork to be manufacturable, even if you…
As others have noted, the IRS doesn't know everything, and some things may be to your advantage to report to them. They could send you a bill and ask you to fix it, but many people wouldn't know where to look to find…
How does this work with sites that have absurdly strict password requirements? i.e. 8-16 characters, 3+ letters (1+ of which is upper case), 2+ numbers, 1+ special characters (from their curated list only!) I've seen a…
Yes. And for many other reasons. Some luxury brands intentionally limit production of popular items and only sell them to their best customers. Since everyone wants the limited things, they buy lots of the lower tier,…

Taxes are hugely complicated because they are trying to do two different things at the same time: combat inflation and enact policy. If we just printed dollars to pay for all gov expenses, we would probably have a lot…
AskHistorians on reddit has put this very question into their "very frequently asked questions" due to its popularity, and there's a decent number of answers describing why its a myth:…

Typically the States each also have their own State Constitution. In this case, Texas could have amended their own State Constitution to say something akin to 'The State of Texas shall not impose a tax on the incomes of…
Power consumption and package pinout/motherboard simplification would be the main two benefits. Latency in DRAM access is dominated by the controller logic on the CPU side (minority) and the bank access and…
