- Sam Bankman-Fried has been found guilty on charges of fraud, fraud, fraud, fraud, fraud, money laundering, and fraud. (Tech Crunch)
He faces up to 115 years in prison.
Guess he bribed the wrong people.

- Cloudflare blew itself up again. (ZDNet)
Cloudflare handles roughly 115% of the world's internet traffic so any time it sneezes, the world needs to be rebooted. This time it was a power failure at one of their key datacenters. The last major outage - three days ago - was a database failure.
At least this one didn't get me woken up at night by a panicking operations team.
- AMD has announced its Ryzen 7040U series of laptop CPUs, replacing the... Uh. Replacing the Ryzen 7040U series of laptop CPUs. (AnandTech)
The chips are fine, but the model numbers are awful. The 7545U will replace the faster 7540U, while the 7440U will supplant the - again, faster - 7440U.
Yes, two different chips with the exact same model number.
- I'm not saying it's aliens but: Cases of fetuses with their organs reversed left-to-right have quadrupled in China. (Ars Technica)
China blames COVID, which they blame on (throws dart) dirty capitalist swine.

"The chips are fine, but the model numbers are awful."
They're just catching up to Intel. I saw a page a few days ago listing the MTL lineup and I can't find it again, so maybe the article was taken down for being wrong, but it showed the 9W U-series chips having higher numbers than the 15W chips, despite having rumored lower boost speeds.
That is, the 15W parts, which should be faster, were the 155U and 125U, but the 9W parts are 164U and 134U.

When hearing this, Anthony Fauci objected to being called a capitalist.
