    I had the honor and pleasure of having Linus in the IDC validation labs in Haifa that I am managing.
    Linus shared some of the amazing work being done in development labs in Israel In three videos.
    ADL Product and Some of the various mechanical solutions and unique cards produced by good cooperation between teams, now he is talking on the unique motherboards that developed to support INTEL Validation needs In order to provide Intel customers with the best product on the market.
    This leads to results and challenging and fun work between the various development groups and the lab teams.
    A few days of film are not enough to show the amazing work of the development crews and lab team at intel .

    One thing I love about this series is the unerring respect LTT shows for the proprietary, trade-secret-driven nature of everything that's going on there. Obviously, they wouldn't be allowed to visit without agreeing to many conditions of secrecy. However, there's never any snarkiness, because Linus 100% gets it: this is how businesses work. Intel, AMD, TSMC, and nearly every company in the world making anything novel exist at all because they develop their own trade secrets and use those to compete. And because Linus and crew respect that in every way, they're allowed to visit and they get to make video after video of interesting, detailed, enthusiastic, engaging, and completely unique content. Hats off to LTT, and thanks to their awesome hosts for making this happen. It's been great.

      And also hats off to Intel. Apparently (iirc from a Wan show) LTT won't go tour a lab if they have to blur everything, or lots of things are kept secret. He said that it isn't just him being "oh, I am important, I need to see this", but more so a n"I need to do my job, make content on it" thing. The fact Intel was willing to let Linus in at all is incredible, and also how much they were able to show him to get lots of content out of it.

      Yeah, it's a bit of a marketing mess but it's true, those Atom CPUs never died (luckily), they have been evolving this whole time.
      At some point they also started labelling them as Celerons and Pentiums, like the ones belonging to the "desktop lineup" (the core i3/i5/i7 CPUs).
      You can only tell them apart from their product numbers (at least for the consumer market) the "atom-derived" are Nxxxx or Jxxxx, the "core ix-derived" are Gxxxx.
      They're excellent CPUs as far as I'm concerned, they're obviously not intended for heavy work but they are perfectly fine for most of the stuff you'd normally do on a basic desktop or a laptop, I even had to use MATLAB on mine, for an exam, it ran with no issues.

    In my first job out of school (1975), we were designing a brand new system, using an Intel bit-slice processor (intel 3000). I purchased from Intel at the time, their new (at the time) ICE system (in-circuit emulation), which was the forerunner of the systems you were seeing. Oh by the way - the system, is hung below the now EF-18 Growler, still slamming into the carrier decks when trapping. Also, I had to fly to one of their FABs, to pick up #5 - the fifth 8080 mil spec chip off the production line - for our evaluation system.

      This is my favourite snippet from within the comments. The development stories you could likely tell. One of the most fascinating documentaries I've watched was the rise of the Wild Wiesel's during Vietnam which didn't include much on more post Vietnam capabilities for obvious reasons.

      @@OneLeatherBoot - You also have to remember that in those days, you had to build your own tools, assembler, linker, loader, debugger - before you could do any meaningful work on the actual project. Then there were the ROM emulators (ROM chips were running $200 each, and then the UVROMS came along - but were slower). Also, needed to have logic analyzers to watch the instruction execution stream, along with a high-speed bus hanger (that we designed) to grab the data addresses with the data along with a DX/DR support utility (data extraction/data reduction) to take the output and make some sense of everything. Lots and lots of engineering had to be done around the project as well as the project itself. Also, created a set of macros to emulate a Fortran like somewhat higher-level language (in the assembler) - to boost productivity.
