You can do prosthetics to a certain degree, too.

Who did you build it for? Who is the customer? If you don't know find a rough definition. Then you know who to sell to and that is the important step :)

I've noticed this being a thing. Actually, its my #1 dream after doing ASIMUV full time (which will hopefully will become a reality). Also, its a comment easter egg because Im referring to the movie office space. The protagonist quit h

It had definitely started as an API side detail. But it might become an industry thing . It allows very easy vendor lock-in for all the *AAS products (PAAS, SAAS, etc). You could be required an add-on for your server or machine to be able

Very interesting fact. But the average programmer is not Rob Pike. How do you see this panning out for the average programmer? Will people need to learn a bit about chips to build more efficient CRUD apps?

by asimuvPR 10y ago
Not only power efficiency but software efficiency. Custom chips combined with DSLs are a powerful combination. At the expense of segmentation, of course.

Its black and white (at least in my opinion). I have an idea for something. How I bring it to reality and under which circumstances will either tell if my execution of the idea fails or succeeds. But the idea is still there. In a sort of id

Ideas never fail. Just the execution of them. Which heavily depends on a wide array of factors.

Wonder what it will do the the industry term Full Stack Developer . Will people who call themselves that will now need to know about chip design? OT: Cool blog! :)

I know the answer was not meant for me, but I'm very excited about Verilog. It allows me to build my own chips with FPGAs (not that I'm doing any at the moment). Plus that means I can build my own language around a custom chip arc

Now this is really interesting. I've been asking myself why this hadn't happened before. Its been all software, software, software for the last decade or so. But now I get it. We are at a point in time where it makes sense to ad

I wish I knew. Luckily someone got in touch and we're working on figuring it out. Its probably an annoying corner case.

I only have uBlock origin. I ran the memory report and saved the results. Would you be interested in it? I could email it to you if thats OK.

I don't think Java or C# are boring at all! Java is incorporating some interesting new features and its ecosystem is absorbing/evolving some of the newer styles of thought from other languages. C# is maturing into an all platform

I can't say how useful this might be in the real world, but I appreciate the out of the box thinking. It could be more useful if you could call Python or Perl from the COBOL program, but what do I know. One thing for sure: I will find

It's not a jab at Java or C#. It's a comment on the fight between ideals and money. Our ideal language will probably not make us money. Thats why we "settle" for one that does. :)

Good point to bring up. The threshold varies from person to person. In my case, it was the act of posting a comment that focused on one line of code and stating it not being pythonic. Without offering an explanation of why it's not pyt

Your comment made me check the repo. It has tests, good naming conventions, and a good program structure. It's actually better than other widely used python packages. Yet for some reason the import statement stood out for you. It would

Fantastic project! The resources are very nice. Thanks for posting them.

Gee, good question. I know people replicate them in FPGAs and verilog [1]. Improving on the design can be potentially done through software with verilog. I'm not sure of anyone who has improved on it because people focus on replicating

They certainly did that on purpose. Humanizing the machine is how they can sell it as an always available "assitant". I don't care about the amazon Alexa. I found the bond beautiful. Thats it. :)

Her, as in a machine to which I have developed an emotional connection which happens to have a female name as it's own. The tie is between the name Alexa and the user. Had amazon named it AZ5000, this person would probably have calle

Adding to your very good points: There are very good ORMs and frameworks that make working with SQL simpler. With baked in type checking and migrations, there is not a lot of need for NoSQL. Plus PostgreSQL and it's JSON data type basi

I loved this comment so much that I almost wrote about loving it in another dimension.
