If it's not already public data, this seems like the sort of thing you could probably get legally by filing a FOIA request.

After hearing Palmer Luckey's argument for the name change[0], I tend to think it's good change.

Some of his arguments:

It used to be called the department of war, and it had a better track record with regard to foreign conflict, under that name then it did under the DoD name.

Department of war is a more honest name, department of defense is a somewhat newspeak term, although "Department of Peace" would be worse.

It's harder to seek funding for "war", then it is to seek funding for "defense". If you ask someone, "Do you want to spend money on education or war?", you will get a different answer asking, "Do you want to spend money on education or defense?".

All DDR5 ram has some amount of error correction built in, because DDR5 is much more prone to bit flipping, it requires it.

I'm not really sure if this makes it overall more or less reliable than DDR2/3/4 without ECC though.

There isn't any good technical reason why an iPad couldn't run macOS. The differences between the A and M series chips is mostly about the kinds of IO the SOC provides. The iPads already use M series chips anyway.

I guess they need something to differentiate it from the 17.

Of the differences, it's the one that would matter most to me.
