POSTER: computer news   ||    TOSHIBA IS PREPARING TO SABOTAGE THE JOINT VENTURE WITH WDC	DATE:2017-05-16
Last week, Toshiba already warned that it could, if necessary, limit the access of Western Digital Corporation employees to the offices and workshops of the joint venture with SanDisk, which manufactures solid state memory.  Representatives of WDC can simultaneously lose access to the computer networks of the joint venture.   Toshiba is forced to take these measures, as WDC ignores the arguments of the Japanese side in the dispute over the legitimacy of selling assets for the release of solid state memory.  The Japanese believe that an American partner who owns SanDisk assets can not dictate the terms of  Toshiba's core assets sale, or somehow prevent such actions.  WDC also believes that Toshiba should coordinate its steps in this direction with the legal successor of SanDisk, which it is. The CFO of WDC has already stated this month that each of the potential buyers of Toshiba assets that are mentioned in the news is a problematic candidate.  The problem is that Foxconn is ready to offer about $ 26 billion for the assets of the Toshiba division, and the money of the Japanese corporation is very much needed now.  According to preliminary estimates, annual net losses reached $ 8.4 billion, and without the sale of the solid-state memory business, the situation will continue to worsen.  .  However, WDC does not have sufficient funds to beat competitors' rates in the struggle for Toshiba assets.  For this reason, the US hard drive manufacturer is trying to exert pressure on Japanese partners through legal procedures. There is another nuance - WDC has not yet consolidated its participation in the joint venture with Toshiba, so the Japanese side still has legitimate reasons not to allow the opponent's employees to venture in Japan, where solid-state memory is produced jointly with SanDisk.  It is interesting that the employees of SanDisk itself should keep access to the workplace - apparently, the transfer of staff to the staff of WDC has not yet been fully implemented.

POSTER: computer news   ||    WAYMO WILL HELP LYFT DEVELOP ROBOTIC TAXIS	DATE:2017-05-16
The main partner of Waymo company , which inherited the development of Google in the field of automotive "autopilot", it is considered to concern Fiat Chrysler.  Meanwhile, according to Reuters , this week Waymo and Lyft announced the beginning of cooperation in the development of robotic taxis.  Prior to this, the main partner of Lyft in this area was General Motors, which is also the investor of the first of the companies.  The agreement with Lyft does not restrict cooperation with General Motors. Lyft is the second largest aggregator of taxi services in the US after the Uber.  Waymo has a claim to Uber regarding the misuse of its own developments related to the use of so-called "lidars".  Waymo believes that the former company engineer Anthony Levanowski, who later founded the Otto startup, bought by Uber, could use confidential files copied from the corporate Waymo network to develop an "autopilot" ordered by Uber.  The trial so far ended with the judge demanding that Lewandowski return all copied Waymo files before May 31, as well as not participate in the development of Uber, somehow related to the use of "lidars."   Interestingly, the judge did not recognize some of the inventions described by Waymo as information constituting a commercial secret.  The fact of copying about 14 000 files from Waymo computers left the company engineer by the court was proved.  Lewandowski himself refused to testify against himself, citing the existence of such an opportunity under American law.

POSTER: computer news   ||   THE VOLUME OF TESLA MODEL 3 RELEASE THIS YEAR WILL BE SMALL	DATE:2017-05-16
Specialized resource Electrek continues to monitor the expansion pre-series prototypes Tesla Model 3.  This time a silver prototype hit the lens of one of the readers, and some angles allow to get a more detailed idea not only about the composition of the sensors used by the "autopilot" system of this electric vehicle, but also about the lighting equipment. This prototype Tesla Model 3 is equipped, presumably, with the same set of "autopilot" sensors as the Tesla Model 6. The following picture allows you to evaluate the design of the front lighting of an electric vehicle.  Most likely, as daytime running lights will be used LED "eyebrows", and the near and far light will also form LEDs, which is quite natural. The last photo allows one more time to make out an idea of ??the design of the rear lighting equipment. In addition, the same resource publishes the forecast of Morgan Stanley analysts who doubt the ability of Tesla to provide the planned volume of the Electric Model 3. It is predicted by experts that this year the Tesla Model 3 circulation will not exceed two thousand copies, and for the next year it will not be released More than 90 thousand units.  This is not only significantly lower than the number of pre-orders, but also less than the planned figures announced by Tesla itself.  At the quarterly reporting conference, the company's management expressed hope that by the end of this year it will be able to produce 5,000 electric vehicles of this model per week, and in 2018 this figure will double.

POSTER: computer news   ||   INTEL INTENDS TO USE AMD GRAPHICS IN ITS PRODUCTS	DATE:2017-05-16
Until now, assumptions about the use of AMD's graphics system in future Intel processors were based only on the revelations of one of the editors of  HardOCP website, which first announced it some time ago.  While the fact remains that Intel has no intention to renew the license agreement with NVIDIA, under which the first of the companies quarterly transferred the second  $ 66 million. At a recent quarterly reporting conference, NVIDIA confirmed that this financial flow will be gradually blocked. Now the Fudzilla website with reference to its own sources says that it was the conclusion of a preliminary agreement with AMD that allowed Intel to abandon the forced cooperation with NVIDIA.    For AMD, the ability to license its own know-how in integrated graphics is an excellent way to improve financial well-being.  True, we will have to sacrifice market positions in the segment of integrated processors, but here Intel already has a dominant position, and the amount of license fees will certainly compensate for AMD inconvenience  .
