With the live-action How to Train Your Dragon on the way, Lego is finally heading to Berk for a new officially-licensed set. The thing that makes sense? It is, of course, your very own buildable Toothless. The thing that doesn’t? It’s a chibi-fied, almost animated spin on the dragon, despite being inspired by the realistic-rendering of Toothless in the new remake.

Silicon’s mid-life crisis AI has evolved from classical ML to deep learning to generative AI. The most recent chapter, which took AI mainstream, hinges on two phases—training and inference—that are data and energy-intensive in terms of computation, data movement, and cooling. At the same time, Moore’s Law, which determines that the number of transistors on a chip doubles every two years, is reaching a physical and economic plateau. For the last 40 years, silicon chips and digital technology ha

After all, chiplets are a semiconductor manufacturing and scaling story of sorts! So I’m pivoting.

A future post will pick up where this leaves off, discussing chiplets and their trade-offs.

New updates to Google Maps have made it possible to show a custom car icon during navigation through both Android Auto and CarPlay. Here’s how it works. Back in February 2025, Google Maps introduced more options for your vehicle icon while in navigation. Instead of the typical blue dot/arrow, users can select a number of different vehicle types and then customize the color. It’s a neat little addition that first appeared in Waze.

Editor's take: I have been writing about custom ASICs for many years. At one point, it became clear that some non-chip companies had grown large enough that designing their own chips made more sense than buying merchant silicon. For a time, it seemed like "everyone" was taking this path. We identified over 100 companies developing their own silicon, spanning smartphones, cars, and Wi-Fi access routers. That said, technology moves in cycles, and we may now be approaching the apex of this particul
