    Culpium reports TSMC is expl=
    oring building and operating a fab that
    would exclusively serve Tesla, Sp=
    aceX, and xAI, and Musk confirmed it
    on X, saying "just discussions, but =
    something may come of it" while
    TSMC stayed silent. The two speculative s=
    tructures Culpium floats are
    a JASM/ESMC-style joint venture where partne=
    rs supply capital and
    demand while TSMC contributes process technology an=

    The ESPARGOS team found a =

    samples straight into internal SRAM,=

    with no extra hardware. They reverse-engi=
    neered it, with help from
    LLMs, and it works across the original ESP32 pl=
    us the C3, C5, C6, C61,
    S2, S3, and S31, capturing up to 80 MSa/s across =
