Made with ASML's EUV lithography.\n\nEach ribbon is a thin sliver of silicon that carries current, and the gate material wraps completely around all four sides. That's the real leap from the FinFET era, where the gate could only grip the channel on three sides. Surround it entirely and you get tighter control over the electrons. They switch on and off more crisply, and leak less when they're meant to be off.\n\n⚡️ Now shift your eyes to those darker lines running alongside the transistors. Those are PowerVia, Intel's backside power delivery solution. Historically, every wire in the integrated circuit crowded in from the top of the chip and fought over the same real estate. Here the entire power network has been moved to the back of the wafer (backside power delivery), so signal routing lives on one side and the power rails on the other. You can see how that works on the greyish image. Pulling it off means the finished device is flipped and bonded top-down to a carrier substrate, then thinned and wired from below. A work of art!\n\nPut it all together and this single image is quietly showing off several of the hardest problems in modern chipmaking solved at once. And it’s marked simply \"Intel\" on the full die. 🫳🎤\n\nSource: TechInsights","author":{"@type":"Person","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E03AQFZ00PUP1EVOw/profile-displayphoto-scale_200_200/B4EZsiQCyNJ0AY-/0/1765806190522?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=OwUEv-5_Z9FdwN0NKeIDLDaUvgO_LP7Nb25irasPL2M"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/FollowAction","userInteractionCount":22692},"name":"Sander Hofman","url":"https://nl.linkedin.com/in/sanderhofman"},"datePublished":"2026-06-05T11:40:36.396Z","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E03AQFZ00PUP1EVOw/profile-displayphoto-scale_200_200/B4EZsiQCyNJ0AY-/0/1765806190522?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=OwUEv-5_Z9FdwN0NKeIDLDaUvgO_LP7Nb25irasPL2M"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"http://schema.org/LikeAction","userInteractionCount":1353},"isPartOf":{"@type":"CollectionPage","name":"Engineering","url":"https://www.linkedin.com/top-content/engineering/"},"position":1,"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"LinkedIn"},"sharedContent":{"@type":"WebPage"},"url":"https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sanderhofman_this-image-of-intels-18a-transistors-is-activity-7468627835650478081-FLid"},{"@type":"SocialMediaPosting","articleBody":"What happens to a renewables-powered grid when El Niño changes the weather?\n\nWith update from NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration's Climate Prediction Center, this question is no longer hypothetical. The ENSO Alert System is on El Niño Watch, and the numbers have tightened sharply:\n\n🌡️ 82% chance of El Niño emerging in May–July 2026\n🌡️ 96% chance of El Niño continuing through December 2026–February 2027\n🌡️ Equatorial subsurface temperatures in the Pacific have risen for six consecutive months \n\nPeak strength remains uncertain, but the direction of travel is clear.\n\nEl Niño doesn't just warm the Pacific. It redistributes rainfall, shifts wind patterns and alters solar radiation across continents. For an electricity system increasingly built on weather-dependent generation, that has direct, measurable consequences:\n\n⚡ Hydropower under stress. During the 2023–2024 El Niño, the Kariba Dam — which powers most of Zambia and Zimbabwe — saw output collapse as the reservoir hit record lows. In Colombia, 80%+ hydro-dependent, even mild El Niño years have reduced reservoir inflows by ~14%. Sudan and Namibia also saw sharp drops in hydropower availability.\n\n⚡ Wind and solar shift, not stop. Wind speeds weaken across parts of South Asia and the Caribbean during El Niño; solar radiation increases in some drought-affected regions and decreases under shifted monsoon patterns elsewhere. The pattern is regional, not uniform — which is why granular forecasts matter.\n\n⚡ Demand spikes. Hotter conditions surge cooling demand across South and Southeast Asia, Central America and the southern US, often at exactly the moment when supply is squeezed.\n\nThe WMO–IRENA 2024 Year in Review shows that ECMWF seasonal forecasts can now successfully anticipate regional anomalies in solar energy potential and electricity demand months in advance. That is a genuine operational breakthrough for grid planners, traders and policymakers. https://lnkd.in/epwvHkhY\n\nResearch on Latin America has shown that strategically combining wind, solar and hydro — exploiting their natural geographic and temporal complementarity — can reduce renewable power variability by up to 65% and increase the minimum monthly threshold of available renewable power by up to 5x, including during El Niño droughts.\n\nThis is where World Meteorological Organization's energy-meteorological services meet energy security. And it is exactly the kind of work that will define whether the clean energy transition holds up under the stress tests climate change keeps sending its way.\n\nNOAA CPC ENSO Diagnostic Discussion (14 May 2026): https://lnkd.in/ez4REFDT","author":{"@type":"Person","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E03AQHtN9U414ndIQ/profile-displayphoto-scale_200_200/B4EaEBjddVJ0Ac-/0/1791027437961?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=8v6Z19VjmrsTD0funJbJ3sgXNBLfxU2FRPczipwuKcI"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/FollowAction","userInteractionCount":184975},"name":"Roberta Boscolo","url":"https://ch.linkedin.com/in/roberta-boscolo-89247216"},"datePublished":"2026-05-15T09:59:30.157Z","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E03AQHtN9U414ndIQ/profile-displayphoto-scale_200_200/B4EaEBjddVJ0Ac-/0/1791027437961?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=8v6Z19VjmrsTD0funJbJ3sgXNBLfxU2FRPczipwuKcI"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"http://schema.org/LikeAction","userInteractionCount":1027},"isPartOf":{"@type":"CollectionPage","name":"Engineering","url":"https://www.linkedin.com/top-content/engineering/"},"position":2,"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"LinkedIn"},"sharedContent":{"@type":"WebPage"},"url":"https://www.linkedin.com/posts/roberta-boscolo-89247216_what-happens-to-a-renewables-powered-grid-activity-7460992246851735553-e9wc"},{"@type":"SocialMediaPosting","articleBody":"What does it actually take to put GLP-1 in a pill?\n \nThe headlines make it sound simple – scientists figured out how to turn an injection into a tablet.

Put together by Hardik Pandya from Atlassian.\n\n---\n\n🔹 1. Design Decisions Are Infrastructure\n\nAI-generated prototypes often don't deliver consistently decent results because of tiny inconsistencies scattered all across a design system. Often it's decisions made but not documented, hard-coded values never cleaned up, or relying too much on AI making sense of mock-ups or design flows on its own.\n\nUnsurprisingly, better AI prototypes come from better data — but also from better human guidance. We shouldn’t assume that AI knows how to choose the right component, and how to design with accessibility in mind. It needs priorities, a clear path on how we make decisions, design principles, examples, do's and don'ts.\n\nIn fact, we should treat design decisions as infrastructure. That means that every time we make a decision — not just a design decision, but even decision on how actually prioritize our work and how we make decisions around here — it must find a path into the spec file that is then consumed by AI.\n\n---\n\n🔶 2. Three Layers: Spec Files + Token Layer + Audit\n\nTo ensure quality, we establish design principles, guidelines, rules in a form of “spec files”). It's structured Markdown files that include spacing rules, color choices, component usage guidelines, priorities etc. AI is going to read and reuse that spec file every time it's going to generate a prototype.\n\nBecause the spec files are text files, it's much more cost-effective, but also much more accurate just because we don't rely on AI recognizing or decoding patterns from mock-ups, but gets specific guidelines instead. In fact, extending code is often a more effective way than generating code from mock-ups.\n\nToken layer lists and keeps updated all tokens used throughout the design system. AI always chooses from a closed set of named variables instead of inventing plausible values ad-hoc.\n\nAn audit script catches what AI gets wrong. It scans the prototype and flags every hard-coded value and flags it if necessary. It can be a regular software doing that, with AI waiting for its feedback to come back.\n\nFinally, when a design system ships updates, a sync routine flags which spec files need updating. The goal is to make sure that AI always reads up-to-date, current specs, not the ones written against an outdated version.\n\n---\n\n🔺 3.

The transition is already underway. Global EV numbers have grown from 1.2 million in 2015 to nearly 60 million today. History shows that shifts like this can happen faster than expected: in the early 20th-century US, horses and mules virtually vanished from roads in under 30 years.\n\nAs with the rise of the car, today’s transition is shaped as much by policy and politics as by technology. ICE vehicles didn’t dominate through technical superiority alone—they were supported by massive public investment in roads, urban design, and highways funded by fuel taxes.\nEVs are well placed to move even faster. They directly replace ICE vehicles while being cleaner, cheaper, and quieter to operate. And past transitions suggest that like-for-like replacements—think black-and-white to colour TV—tend to spread far more quickly than entirely new products.\n\nOur new report by the Centre for Net Zero (Octopus Energy Group)'s excellent Andy Hackett, Izzy Woolgar, RMI's Yuki Numata and Laurens Speelman and me at Environmental Change Institute (ECI), University of Oxford describe how EVs are posed to enter a next phase in it's adoption curve. This is the phase of 'system integration', where integration of EVs into the broader energy and transport system (think vehicle to grid, flexible charging, widespread and equitable charging, battery recycling) becomes more and more important, alongside reducing costs, intense competition, increasing quality and efficiency, and increasing supporting technologies.

And it needed to be rapidly deployed so we could bring customers these powerful AI capabilities while we transition towards facility-level liquid cooling. Think of a home where only one sunny room needs AC, while the rest stays naturally cool – that’s what we wanted to achieve, allowing us to efficiently land both liquid and air-cooled racks in the same facilities with complete flexibility.\n\nThe available options weren't great. Either we could wait to build specialized liquid-cooled facilities or adopt off-the-shelf solutions that didn't scale or meet our unique needs. Neither worked for our customers, so we did what we often do at Amazon… we invented our own solution.\n\nOur teams designed and delivered our In-Row Heat Exchanger (IRHX), which uses a direct-to-chip approach with a \"cold plate\" on the chips. The liquid runs through this sealed plate in a closed loop, continuously removing heat without increasing water use. This enables us to support traditional workloads and demanding AI applications in the same facilities. By 2026, our liquid-cooled capacity will grow to over 20% of our ML capacity, which is at multi-gigawatt scale today.\n\nWhile liquid cooling technology itself isn't unique, our approach was. Creating something this effective that could be deployed across our 120 Availability Zones in 38 Regions was significant. Because this solution didn't exist in the market, we developed a system that enables greater liquid cooling capacity with a smaller physical footprint, while maintaining flexibility and efficiency.\n\nOur IRHX can support a wide range of racks requiring liquid cooling, uses 9% less water than fully-air cooled sites, and offers a 20% improvement in power efficiency compared to off-the-shelf solutions. And because we invented it in-house, we can deploy it within months in any of our data centers, creating a flexible foundation to serve our customers for decades to come.\n\nReimagining and innovating at scale has been something Amazon has done for a long time and one of the reasons we’ve been the leader in technology infrastructure and data center invention, sustainability, and resilience.

While everyone's chasing the next customer-facing feature, companies are struggling to scale because their technical foundations are falling apart. I've watched organizations spend millions building platforms that nobody uses, simply because they treated platform PM like an afterthought.\n\nMost people get this wrong. Platform product managers are the bridge between business strategy and scalable infrastructure. Your customers are internal teams, but your impact reaches every external user.\n\nThe best platform PMs I know spend just as much time understanding business objectives as they do diving into API architecture.

They think about scalability, developer workflows, and system reliability as strategic advantages.\n\nThis is one of the biggest skill gaps I see in product organizations today. Companies are forming multiple squads, growing their engineering teams, but they don't have anyone who can translate business growth into platform requirements.\n\nIf you're a technical PM considering this path, now's the time. Platform demand is growing rapidly, and great platform PMs are in high demand.","author":{"@type":"Person","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/C4E03AQFQn_5rLG1e7w/profile-displayphoto-shrink_200_200/profile-displayphoto-shrink_200_200/0/1583155222873?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=8rU9knDxUI6XagWEEKdT8drfDegvSYh6Sq9nQnc_rz8"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/FollowAction","userInteractionCount":110413},"name":"Melissa Perri","url":"https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissajeanperri"},"datePublished":"2025-09-13T11:45:01.249Z","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/C4E03AQFQn_5rLG1e7w/profile-displayphoto-shrink_200_200/profile-displayphoto-shrink_200_200/0/1583155222873?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=8rU9knDxUI6XagWEEKdT8drfDegvSYh6Sq9nQnc_rz8"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"http://schema.org/LikeAction","userInteractionCount":1124},"isPartOf":{"@type":"CollectionPage","name":"Engineering","url":"https://www.linkedin.com/top-content/engineering/"},"position":9,"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"LinkedIn"},"sharedContent":{"@type":"WebPage","headline":""},"url":"https://www.linkedin.com/posts/melissajeanperri_platform-product-management-is-an-undervalued-activity-7372596162182426624-bbwj"},{"@type":"SocialMediaPosting","articleBody":"No words. No narration. Just one of the most powerful demonstrations of automotive safety technology I’ve seen.\n\nThis video showcases Volkswagen’s Emergency Assist system, and it’s a masterclass in effective communication. Watch what happens when the system detects an unresponsive driver:\n\n1. Alerts: It first tries to get the driver's attention.\n2. Physical Intervention: It then does something fascinating...it jabs the brakes in an attempt to physically jolt the driver awake.\n3. Autonomous Action: When there's no response, it takes control. It assesses the surroundings, activates the turn signal, and safely navigates the car across multiple lanes to the shoulder.\n4. Secure & Call: Finally, it brings the vehicle to a complete stop, turns on the hazard lights, and automatically makes an emergency call.\n\nThink of the real-world implications. \n\nIt's a lifeline for anyone experiencing a sudden medical event—a seizure, a heart attack, a narcoleptic episode. It also provides a critical safety layer for our aging population, helping older drivers maintain their mobility and independence with more confidence and peace of mind for their families.\n\nThis technology will save lives. Period.\n\nIncredible work by the engineering and design teams at Volkswagen. This is human-centered technology at its best.\n\nWhat are your thoughts?\n\n#AutomotiveTechnology #RoadSafety #Innovation #Volkswagen #DriverAssist #Engineering #FutureOfMobility","author":{"@type":"Person","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E03AQFLZFrGli5RjA/profile-displayphoto-scale_200_200/B4EaF.ljJzK8Ac-/0/1793125137114?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=cpEoNYhkwbBl_W26_j2ywUSE-RpY4TFQmuY2FQYCTT4"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/FollowAction","userInteractionCount":31960},"name":"Tom Popomaronis","url":"https://www.linkedin.com/in/tpopomaronis"},"datePublished":"2025-08-27T20:42:57.850Z","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E03AQFLZFrGli5RjA/profile-displayphoto-scale_200_200/B4EaF.ljJzK8Ac-/0/1793125137114?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=cpEoNYhkwbBl_W26_j2ywUSE-RpY4TFQmuY2FQYCTT4"},"interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"http://schema.org/LikeAction","userInteractionCount":3473},"isPartOf":{"@type":"CollectionPage","name":"Engineering","url":"https://www.linkedin.com/top-content/engineering/"},"position":10,"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"LinkedIn"},"sharedContent":{"@type":"WebPage","headline":""},"url":"https://www.linkedin.com/posts/tpopomaronis_no-words-no-narration-just-one-of-the-most-activity-7366570946368864257-uGBe"}],"headline":"Engineering","isFamilyFriendly":true,"keywords":"Engineering, Engineering Quality Assurance Methods, Engineering Standards And Compliance, AI Applications In Engineering, Integrating AI In Engineering Solutions, Engineering Challenges In Manufacturing, Software Engineering Career Paths, Electrical Engineering Power Systems, Civil Engineering Infrastructure Solutions, Engineering Problem-Solving Techniques, Key Factors in Engineering Design, Energy Infrastructure Solutions, HVAC Engineering System Design, Electrical Engineering Best Practices, Engineering Design Methods, Renewable Energy Systems, Sustainable Construction Materials, Energy Systems Modeling, Electrical Equipment Protection, Engineering Online Learning Resources, Power Systems Protection","name":"Engineering","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"LinkedIn"},"url":"https://www.linkedin.com/top-content/engineering/"}
