Our club uses Spond for invites. I'm not sure what the financial side of it looks like, but it's been great for coordinating training/games/socials.

I spent some time in Lossiemouth as an engineering officer in the RAF. There was a period during the start of the Crimea War (2014/15~) when Russian fighter aircraft were circling the edges of our airspace almost every day for months o

This seems a little baffling to me because these evangelical groups are uniquely American. There would still exist a huge pornography industry globally, particularly within the EU, that would serve the US even if these groups achieved ever

Scientists aren't just finding biomass, stating that as the figure for the total, and adding to it. 15% will be an estimate with variance as stated by a predictive model. We have found fractions of a per cent, with 15% being a predicte

A very similar play book to the one used by the Conservative Party in the UK. They were somehow deemed the "anti-immigration party" of the two major ones, despite having been resposible for some of the highest immigration rates of

The classic walled garden approach - make everyone buy lense mounts that only fit their cameras, people collect lenses for their brand of choice, then make them regret ever making the purchase by racking up subscription costs and introducin

I'd disagree - at the ends of the curve, there are a lot of products that are effectively identical, at which point it's a race to the bottom on price (often meaning a slow decline in features until things are "cost-optimised

I've worked with a few teams based in Israel during my at Intel, namely in networking and transceiver technology space. I try to make a point of getting to know the people I work with through 1:1s, and you'll be pleased to know th

I don't think OP disagrees, or their mother. I think it's more the time spent on such things. They might be worth a semester or two, but the world would be a much better place if we learnt a little about a lot, because to function

I can back this up. I work as an FPGA engineer, which is very much an amalgam of software, "firmware" (RTL), and hardware. If I find a software bug or want to spin up something quickly on the HPS (on chip CPU) it might take me a f

Arguably the plastics break down until they become basic short polymers that exist in everything though no? At some point they progress from micro-plastics to non-harmful substances. So having a break point where we stop producing plastics

But that second argument of "saving grandma" isn't an issue in Europe either. You think we just abandoned old people with difficult health care needs to the dogs? They get first class care in most European countries - if anyt

Agreed. My career at Intel coincided with Pat's, although I jumped ship a little earlier. Admittedly this means I probably have a little bias, but based on my hundreds of conversations with Intel vets I do think his business strategy w

I wasn't at all, to be honest. I joined a multidisciplinary team and they were short an Ethernet SME. I said I'd be happy to just in feet first and learn, as I was desperate to get into anything and everything FPGAs at the time, h

I took a strange career jump recently into FPGA engineering with a focus on Ethernet. It's been a fun journey, which culminated in me finally designing my own Hard MAC IP and sending a packet over some custom PHY IP. I'd highly re

I think it's a case where modern journalists (and in many other parts of society) find a hypothesis they think will do well and hunt for leads/studies/data that fit the hypothesis. It's easier to do because you only need

To be clear, when I said that I didn't mean the joy is in chasing numbers. That's a bit reductionist. Some people enjoy that, but I was implying that the downstream effects of chasing numbers are the exciting part; challenging you

Good weightlifting should rarely feel boring - maybe only one week in every 4 or 5 during a de-load week (when I'm aiming for 3-4 reps-in-reserve), but boring feels good then because you're resting after weeks of hard work. If any

For those who aren't aware it's a 25% tarrif, so most manufacturers don't bother even trying to sell in the US. That's why almost all European/Japanese brand cars are 30+ years old over there. I find it entertaining

The thing is, compared to an ASIC you've got a commodity product that doesn't become completely redundant if you mess something up. With ASICs, you need another tape out. FPGAs you can just recompile and reprogram the device. I&#x
