take a look at germany. they concentrate asocials in special places that are easy to control, clean, and in high traffic areas where they cannot harm lone passing-by pedestrians. win-win-win

I wonder whether writing whole system in verilog, synthesizing cycle accurate simulator with verilator would yield better results...

This is exactly the situation in the realm of ASICs. Patent situation is a fucking minefield, so whenever a startup arises, the oligopoly smashes it to pieces and then buys out. This was actually the same for compiler technology (remember s

"I often wonder"... because fucking "nobody was fired for buying IBM". For your average section manager of an engineering unit, CAD costs are just plain old "resources", just as engineers. As long as these cos

Then it puzzles me why 3 cards are dead. I suppose they do not optimize their shuffle to pick a song from an already read flash page, so many shuffles -> many read disturbs -> page refresh (move to a fresh page, mark old as garbage) -

Can someone please genuinely explain the need of such software products to me? I work in VLSI engineering and such things sound like a total superflous bullshit-bingo to me (stats, dashboards, metrics, "value proposition", "t

what you mean is a machine that can operate on real numbers with arbitrary precision (which is not possible in real world anyways, because of the noise). google that and you would see that they are not "more powerful" than your us
