AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

Twitter adds Bookmark counter on iOS: Here’s how it works

Twitter has added yet another metric to its platform. The Elon Musk-owned company via a series of tweets from its Twitter Support handle said that it is rolling out a feature called ‘Bookmark Counter’ to users on its platform. However, the feature isn’t available to all Twitter users just yet. The company said that at the moment it is rolling out bookmark counter only to its iOS users. However, the company plans to expand this feature to its other platforms, that is, Android and the web, soon.

“Bookmark counts show the total number of times a Tweet has been bookmarked. This feature is currently available on iOS, with plans to expand,” the company wrote in a support page.

If you are an avid Twitter user, the company’s new bookmark counter will help you understand just how many people bookmarked a particular tweet that you shared. Or in other words how many people find the information that you shared in your tweet useful enough to use for referencing later.

That said, there are several limitations to this feature, that is, if it’s your tweet that is being bookmarked. Besides limited availability, this feature will only show the number of times a tweet has been bookmarked. Users will not see details of the people who have bookmarked a tweet. “No, Bookmarks are still private and are only viewable to you within your Twitter account. We only show the total number of Bookmarks, not the specific accounts that have added a Tweet to their Bookmarks,” the company explained. And like all other metrics on Twitter, view count for instance, all Twitter users can see bookmark counts on tweets of other users.

It is hard to understand why anyone on Twitter would want to see bookmark count on their tweets or why would anyone want to see bookmark count on others’ tweets. At best, this metrics could have been a part of the dashboard that shows more detailed engagement statics. But the Twitter boss clearly considers this feature a ‘major Twitter improvement’ so we might as well get used to it.
