Tesla’s MCU wearing off too soon
Due to a construction flaw, the flash memory of the
MCU wears off too soon due to excessive writing
operations onto the flash memory. It’s like with SSDs
where memory cells may become defective by time.

As an eager user of facebook, you’re always
using facebook on your smartphone as well.
Thinking of the security, you have already
disabled GPS tracking for facebook.
Micron has just announced their success to produce
Octa-NAND memory chips. With this, even bigger SSDs
might become possible. The current technology for
SSDs is QLC (Quad Level Cell) allowing 4 bits per cell.
The demand for high-capacity NVMe memory is still given.
Prices are dropping yet high-capacity modules are rather
expensive. Toshiba has unveiled the 1TB small-form factor
NVMe SSD. The 22x30mm module has one single chip!
The Ninth Circuit Court for Appeals in the USA has put down a lawsuit of many private
persons who have filed for a lawsuit against Cell network carriers who allow the NSA to
tap the line of customers without prior notice and without a definite suspected case.
It seems, the NSA still holds tight to their right to spy on innocent people!
It seems Microsoft is in need of a VoIP and Web-telephony specialist. The
purchase attempt of Microsoft to acquire Skype gives much to speculate as
Microsoft itself has a network-based telephony service called Lync (which I
was able to see in action also as it is being tested in our company.)
So, finally a post of my thoughts about today’s communication methods. 15 years ago,
the communication methods were rather limited as cell phones and their price plans
were too expensive. The Internet was still in it’s development process and services like
ICQ and the like were not well-developed or ready for mass communication.
I guess, you already missed my longer posts during my absence. So did I miss a fully
functioning Internet! Unbelievable but today you feel sorta naked if you don´t have
your usual ways of communication available for your convenicence. At least even
the smallest ‘nest’ does have an internet terminal to keep in touch with the world!
