The IPS officer's version is flawed on another count as well. We only know that Ishrat Jehan was missing for 10 days leading up to the shootout. What makes Satish Varma to think that she wasn't missing for days in the past? So even if we assume it takes zillion years to become suicide bomber she co...

65 nanometers is the technology node used in the chip. Since India doesn't yet have 65 nm node capability they must have outsourced fabrication to some foundry elsewhere. Not good in the long run, IMO. Well, that puzzled me too. Unless they built a custom foundry without bothering about yield effic...
