There is a large list of things you can query, like for example the number of available queues and then the types of commands supported by each queue. I think this can be considered as a hardware detail. It's like querying the executio

AMD had V-EZ which seemed interesting to me when I played a bit with Vulkan, but unfortunately it has been unmaintained since 2018...

You use a tool to convert your HDL code (Verilog, VHDL or something else) to a bitstream which then needs to be sent to the FPGA to configure its components. Most of these tools and the bitstream formats are proprietary. So, for Intel you w

It wouldn't hurt to verify that these are harmless by seeing a doctor. It will probably be a 10' examination.

I had an eye surgery for strabismus when I was 5 or 6. They tightened some of the eye muscles. I was seeing everything rotated initially, and over a few weeks the angle gradually went from about 30 degrees back to zero. I guess it was becau

Don't windows in GNOME have a minimize button by default? And then you use the overview to bring the window back if you want? Am I missing something?

FWIW, i3 is in the same ballpark, maybe a bit less if I am not mistaken.

For some people X is just better at the moment. I am one of these people and, honestly, Wayland has nothing to offer me but issues here and there. So I decided to just stick with X and not bother with Wayland until at least 2023-2024, and o

This is my experience as well. I use i3 and change a couple of lines every now and then. The other components like dbus, portals, pipewire, just work. But I am not doubting the parent's experience either, since people can have wildly v

For games there is at least GOG. Still digital but you own the copy. I have all my games on Steam and I regret this a bit.

The Hardware Server from Vivado Lab Edition seems to work cleanly. You need to install at least "ncurses5-compat-libs" from the AUR and "libxcrypt-compat" from the official repos, install Vivado Lab Edition and run the s

Do regular drivers actually take their hands off the wheel and expect the car to drive them around in an urban road network? And they have peace of mind while doing so?

For anyone having the same problem, a standalone Hardware Server install on Arch communicating with the containerised Vivado might be a solution (haven't tried it yet). There is also an AUR package for it.

One thing that will help a lot is being thorough. Try to understand as well as you can, try to fill in missing steps and details, make sure the text itself is actually clear and correct and is not missing something. Try to guess how a proof

I loved Exapunks, TIS-100, Molek-Syntez and Opus Magnum. I still have not played Shenzhen I/O and I started Infinifactory yesterday, after learning about this last game. These games are all absolute gems. Especially TIS-100 was so simp

They used to measure in microns, so this is the expected next step I guess. Anyway, I hope this goes well. We need more cutting edge fabs.

I have around -10 dioptres in both eyes, like my father. I am also amblyopic. It is a minor inconvenience for me right now, but the risks for serious problems in the future are real. The problem, if I understand correctly, is that myopia co

Newton's second law is also linear but you can study chaotic systems just fine. You can study coupled weird oscillators in QM too. You just take the classical problem and derive the Hamiltonian operator. I do not understand what the pr

Has anyone used the new Vivado ML editions? They are claiming a 5x reduction in "compile times" by the use of machine learning. I installed it recently for a new project but have not got around to testing it yet.

I am not taking any hard stance on the usefulness of the specialized instruction, but M1 is a very wide and powerful core, so this won't be true everywhere. The single instruction might also be more power-efficient and keep other resou
