are these going to be open sourced?

That rule applies to Chinese military discussion threads with questionable media sources. Semiconductor thread started out with news posting thread that doesn't have that kind of rigid enforcement to begin with. Before you came back, it has generally not been enforced with such requirements.
I am fine with the fact that after you came back to become a Mod and decided to make such threads more professional. However, if you wanted to enforced the same rules on these threads as Chinese military threads then please marked them or put them in a new sub that dedicated to professional discussion. At least you should make an announcement to request all members to adhere with your new rules.
My advice is for more technical articles that never posted before, such requirement is not necessary same as military threads. However, for more political aspect article related to such thread, of course requirement of poster needs to justify their posting is necessary. As for questionable news sources, I am fine if you wanted to mark Bloomberg as an unreliable source and requires more explanation when posting its articles.
If you just wanted to single me out, I am also fine with that too. Just let me know which threads are under your monitor for more professionalism.
T-Head's cores are better than SiFive's. C906 and C910 cores are even open source. There is no reason to use SiFive cores at all.
You could claim that SiFive had the advantage of having Vector 1.0 support, but C908 and C920 also have that.
Since Huawei already is using their own OS and application webstore, they would be a prime candidate for moving to RISC-V if they wanted to. The problem is right now the available RISC-V core designs lack the performance per watt to compete against ARM.
It has nothing to do with litho requirement. Micron is still using DUV and they are like four DRAM generations ahead of CXMT.
Lack of EUV will only become an issue after that.
Hopefully CXMT will start delivering DDR5 next year as they claim. IMHO they need to deliver DDR5, GDDR, and HBM.
I very much would support a higher standard in general. Those ignorant to a topic should be restricted purely to asking questions or making observations of existing/ongoing discussion. No assertions or spamming of propaganda/social media links should be permitted unless the sources are mod-approved.
Guangdong Gold Semiconductor successfully developed 8-inch conductive silicon carbide single crystal and substrate wafer
Yuehai Gold Semiconductor has successfully developed 8-inch conductive silicon carbide single crystal and substrate wafers. Since its establishment, the company has adhered to the business development concept of innovation-driven and technology-led and continued to promote technology research and development. With the attention and strong support of provincial, municipal, and district governments and relevant departments, it has overcome a large number of process and technical difficulties. An 8-inch conductive silicon carbide crystal with a diameter of more than 205 mm was successfully prepared in the silicon carbide single crystal growth furnace. The surface of the crystal is smooth and defect-free, and the thickness is more than 20 mm. At the same time, an 8-inch silicon carbide substrate has been successfully processed. During the development process of 8-inch silicon carbide crystals, we successfully solved key common technical problems such as large-diameter crystal enlargement and growth, large-size thermal field distribution and high-temperature gas phase transport, and large-size crystal stress control, and formed and mastered a complete process solution. , obtained high-quality silicon carbide single crystals and substrate wafers, laying a solid foundation for subsequent continuous quality improvement and industrial mass production.
Doubt it, these companies usually open source the basic stuff as a PR stunt and to get access to developers.
Northern Huachuang: Performance maintains high growth rate and ample orders on hand
Since 2023, the company has successively launched new products such as 12-inch crystal edge etching machine and 12-inch glue remover. At the same time, various benchmark products have successively reached sales milestones (the cumulative sales volume of 12-inch deep silicon etching machine has reached 100 cavities, and the 12-inch vertical A total of 500 furnaces have been shipped from the factory). Due to the incremental contribution of new products and repeated orders for mature products, the company currently has sufficient orders on hand and will see a significant increase in new orders in 2023. At this stage, major downstream wafer fabs are expected to start bidding in Q4 2023, and the company is expected to fully benefit from the increasing trend of localization, thereby ensuring that its performance in 2024 can still achieve a high growth rate.
There has been no shortage of posts from me on this particular thread about needing to raise the quality

I agree in principle but i don't think this forum is resourced enough to be moderated in the way you're describing. Moving nationalist gloat to a dedicated containment thread is an imperfect solution but one that works given the small mod staff. I think it's better just to discourage bad...

I don't it funny. I find it depressing and frustrating. Its like the perennial underdog who is constantly trying to impress his peers only to be dismissed no what progress he makes. The lack of respect regarding any Chinese progress from these anti-China think tanker crowd only makes you want to...

This is possibly the most popular thread in SDF. So it's for our common good to keep this thread well moderated.
Now, I have singled out others on needing to raise the quality of their post before, so this is nothing personal.
In this case, you have posted the following single link posts with not a single word of commentary in just the past month on this thread

I have deleted pandaChen posts and replies to that and issued him a warning. He is clearly trolling here. Future infractions will result in suspension. Please do not engage with him on this thread. Your post will also be deleted.

Chinese companies didn't want to use domestic AI chips，even SOE is no exception https://news.ifeng.com/c/8UAxXrTwOx5 2023年7月，在一次国家政策制定机构组织的内部讨论中，一家国产头部芯片厂商人士曾口头提出一个应对AI芯片“卡脖子”的方案——由政府主导，约束所有数据中心都要采购一定比例的国产AI芯片。当时这一方案并未得到回应。原因是，这并不符合市场原则。此外，当时美国对中国的高端芯片制裁并未到彻底封死这一步，而且国产AI芯片目前还不够好用。...

@latenlazy and @Phead128 you are entitled to your opinion. I don’t think you understand the criticality of inspection and metrology is developing a new advanced technology node and ramping up to HVM with high yield. your views clearly implies you have no experience in a R&D nor production...

So, I think the main difference here is that if ASML is able to de-americanize, then it can sell to Chinese customers as it please. It can a So, ASML will just need to de-americanize. That's up to them to do I could be that is not entirely possible for ASML to de-americanize without a clean...

Seems like a strawman. What is true though, is that these are commodities and chips act like commodities in the market. They really need companies to stop using 28nm and 14nm chips to boost demand on advanced nodes. Not going to happen for either, but especially 28nm. It's the sweet spot...

This is all from the past month.
You know, in the past, this sub-forum was just considered a place where people relax and vent. That's kind of the status of "Miscellaneous News" right now. But you know semiconductor is a thread that people really care about. Do we really want Semiconductor thread to become another Miscellaneous News? I really don't think so.
In the past, T-Head has open sourced its cores like C906 and C910 here , so I would imagine you will see more open sourcing in the future
I don't know how much fee it would charge 3rd part for using its cores
