news@hexbear.net•Bulletins and News Discussion for December 11th to December 17th, 2023 - What's Yours is Mine - COTW: CanadaEnglish
29·2 years agoSomeone already pointed out the individual parts, but to give a bit more context, every major party in the German Bundestag has government funded foundation to put out policy ideas and pamphlets/ideological positions. It is an attempt to have a publicly funded and institutional alternative to think tanks. The Rosa Luxemburg Foundation is the Left Party’s (die Linke) foundation. Just as a fun irony the SPD’s foundation is the Friedrich Ebert Foundation.
Since die Linke is in such a dire state and might go through a split (I haven’t kept up to date with where things are currently) there is the possibility the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation might not continue to get public funding and might disappear.

news@hexbear.net•China poised to break 5nm barrier — Huawei lists 5nm processor presumably built with SMIC tech, defying U.S. sanctionsEnglish
37·2 years agoI haven’t really dived into the IEEE standards here, but this is a real thing and not purely marketing. It is the resolution of the lithography. Due to the higher clock speeds and current resolutions, the capacitance and inductance of the elements set the size of transistors and routing, rather than just how small you can pattern them. So it is not directly increasing transistor density and processing power, but it means that you are patterning elements more accurately to what you designed and have less variation element to element. Meaning that things can be optimized and more consistent.

46·2 years agoYou always have low yield when developing new processes. You can’t make a 7nm process by just running 14nm at high throughput/low yield. This is just R&D and process development.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Eli5 why socialist countries don't have recessionsEnglish
92·2 years agoThey can have recessions, depending on how plugged in their economy is to the broader international capitalist market. But often socialist countries don’t because the capitalist free market operates on supply and demand self-correction. This is dipping a bit into control theory and dynamic systems, but broadly, you get oscillations (business cycles) if there are delays and/or too much correction/amplification of signals. So, if there is unmet demand, it is overshot or as the market is correcting, the demand reduces, so that there is overproduction. This overshoot, is often seen as a bubble inflating and bursting.
But to get to why this can be avoided in socialist countries, we have to recognize that this is one of the few dimensions where central planning, even very flawed and crude versions, is robust. The planners can say “we have a demand of 500 units, and only 400 were delivered, increase production by 25%.” Where multiple competing enterprises could just say “There is a market for 100 more units. So expand production by a significant fraction of that (leading to the many competing firms to produce a factor more)”. Because of the lack of coordination, and the incentive to try to capture a large fraction of a market for profit, a lot of these self-correction mechanisms in capitalism overshoot their targets, causing a firm to go into bankruptcy and not pay back debts. But any form of planning can somewhat dampen that, even if fluctuations and errors can lead to some overproduction or shortfall.

memes@hexbear.net•Here comrade, use this with plenty of salt against liberals.English
8·2 years agoThe social fascism line was because it was the SPD that crushed the 1919 revolution not the libs. Friedrich Ebert and the higher ups in the SPD used the Freikorps to crush the revolution and assassinate Luxemburg and Liebknecht.
I am guessing that the meme has in mind Hindenburg appointing Hitler as Chancellor and the liberal party voting for giving emergency powers to Hitler, post Reichstag fire.
