Recently the computer part company AMD has announced a new line of CPU's; the threadripper series. This month they announced the 3960x and 3970x with the 3970x having a whopping 32 cores.  In the past, AMD was widely considered to be behind Intel in terms of processors and in fact  they were, considering that Intel was producing more powerful units. AMD was always the economic choice but with the sacrifice of power, however with recent advances they are getting closer to achieving both cheaper and faster units.

After the announcement of Tesla's cyber truck, many had negative expectations and comments after seeing the supposedly damage proof glass get cracked on stage but considering that Tesla is sure to work on  this issue and that the Truck is just over $50,000 despite being such an exotic vehicle seems very reasonable.

Sherry Turkle Ted Talk

I can definitely relate to Sherry Turkle's ted talk, phones cannot create a proper sense of connection between people. Although talking to friends online can be entertaining, the atmosphere, energy, and emotion that talking face to face brings is incomparable. Still ironically, I never forget to check my phone though ought the day. I agree that this form of connection makes us more isolated, conversations should not be thought out where we can say and express only what we desire. Raw conversation allows for true feelings and emotion to be expressed to a certain extent, and that is surely a key part to building bonds and meaningful relationships with people.
