But long before that happened, Toshiba Memory Corporation invented NAND Flash memory in the early 1980s, the memory technology at the heart of the Kioxia product I’m reviewing today. In the chronicles of Gen 4 NVMe storage, Kioxia hasn’t exactly rushed to deliver its first products to market. Others got their products out much earlier, though some of these early designs didn’t live up to their billing and have subsequently been replaced with revamped second-generation solutions anyway....

Here on the brink of another trade deadline, the NBA’s rumor mill has again been sawing off solid chunks of Love-to-Boston chatter. This should be no surprise. Getting Love to the Celtics is a sort of obsession around the league, dating to the goofball days after the resolution of the NBA’s lockout. MORE: 15 worst, most untradable contracts in the NBA At the time, rumors had already bubbled up that Boston was looking to move on from the Paul Pierce-Kevin Garnett pairing, while Love appeared headed into free agency, unable to reach an extension agreement on his rookie contract....

McCarthy’s path to the speakership was rocky even before he secured the top post. Facing staunch opposition from far-right members of his own party, he suffered 15 rounds of voting before being elected the GOP leader. In order to convince enough of his holdouts to flip their votes and support him, McCarthy agreed that the Republican House wouldn’t move to lift the debt ceiling without corresponding cuts in government spending....

Roisin Wood, Director of Kick It Out, told BBC Sport that football in the United Kingdom would benefit from “diversification”. “It’s all about positive action”, Wood said. “When it comes down to the final two equally qualified candidates, then it’s about looking where your levels of under-representation are at the club.” Wood who was appointed Director last year said that she knew positive discrimination was illegal, but that positive action is lawful and should be given some serious thought when it comes to adding some diversity with respect to football clubs....

Talk to your children about guns and violence. Explain that weapons are not toys and that kids should never play with them.

Clearly, the duo have walked away with much lenient punishment after tempers flared last night. “Mr Starc admitted to the level 2 offence (Article 2.2.11) of conduct contrary to the spirit of the game and accepted the sanction of a fine of 50% of his match fee. Mr Pollard admitted to the level 2 offence (Article 2....

Not just Chinese, either.

Video stores stock manga and kung fu; Nobu, a downtown restaurant serving Japanese food, is stuffed with celebrities, and Michelle Yeoh, Malaysian martial-arts star of the new James Bond movie, ““Tomorrow Never Dies’’ (and ex-wife of Poon), does her ““don’t mess with me’’ look from billboards....

Starting earlier this month, Ye spread his antisemitic rhetoric several times, and his Twitter and Instagram accounts were locked.

Maybe not, but it's entertaining to watch the two superstars square off. It's Heat vs. Thunder, not James vs. Durant, 1-on-1. But James will be guarding Durant at times on Wednesday night when Miami plays host to Oklahoma City in a matchup of the teams who met in the 2012 NBA Finals. It's an unenviable task, especially when considering that Durant is on career-best paces this season and that he's scored at least 30 points in his last 11 games....
