“Permission” was just a bad way to put it. I'm sure what they are actually talking about is making sure that the person is making the decision in clear mind and not under the effect of drugs, strong temporal emotions and is not being f

So is it like math written in natural language but more structured and cross-referenced?
216.
by gnull 5y ago
I'm trying to look at one specific component here, the language itself. My claim is that as a language Clash is way better than SystemVerilog. True, Verilog has more mature tooling and is better supported by vendors at the moment. But

Sorry it it came out as dismissive. I only wanted to show that my claim is specifically about the language, not current state of tooling which I'm not as familiar with (and which is important).

I don't know what is tapeout, but Clash can describe any circuit that Verilog can. If you wanted to, you could one-to-one translate the circuit descriptions between the two. We could argue about the current state of tooling for Clash a

Clash is not pseudo, it's actual HDL. Right now it compiles to Verilog, yes, but this is minor a technicality. > the choice of HDL (which was 95% of the time, Verilog, for the rest, VHDL), was never actually 'important'; t

I've been quite happy with my Remarkable. The only thing that annoys me is not having buttons to turn pages. Swiping over a touchscreen is counterproductive and Remarkable sometimes fails to recognize the gesture.

Would be funny if someone wrote a language server for org mode in elisp on top of emacs and offered all of its functionality to the other editors. But jokes aside, is there something that doesn't let us implement a language server for

Yeah, the currently active paragraph seems to be always at the same position on the screen (seems to be somewhere in first 1/3 of the screen height). If I've finished reading paragraph i and the next one is i+1, i+1 will appear wh

Can you make it not scroll the text when it's not necessary? Sort of pop the new paragraphs under the one I just read, keeping the latter in place, until the screen fills up.

I think a good example of two solutions used in browsers and OSes that are meaningfully similar (and not inherent to all systems software) would convince me better. Do you have one?

Great blog design, btw! I love the way it displays footnotes (if you can call them that now) on page margins. Does it have RSS?

> IPC, memory management, process management, network management. I imagine the non-trivial parts of these are done for the JS VM (correct me if I'm wrong), and therefore a VM design course would have more intersection with Browsers

Looking at the book's table of contents, I disagree. Browsers may resemble OSes by the size of the code base or by the amount of optimization involved, or by their importance for the modern world, but not by the types of technologies i

Being unable to see the whole (sub-)tree while reading the comments is a major disadvantage for me so far. If you read a thread that goes like a dialog with each new reply being nested under the previous one, this web app requires a key pre

Don't they need to announce a concrete Communist to vote for? Last time I checked the number of Communists in Russia was strictly greater than one.

But that won't prevent the person from being elected. Doing it after comes with many drawbacks.

This ensures Putin's government won't have enough time to subvert the recommended candidates in some way.
