Not to imply the F-35 is the be-all end-all but the article is a bit misleading. Military avionics is developed in a waterfall fashion with functionality spread out over several increments. Initial weapons capability is to be included in bl

Gimp currently uses TinyScheme and SIOD was the interpreter before that.

Yes, there are a lack of non-commercial IDEs for Lisp that are purpose-built and give a great "Out of the Box Experience". However, don't dismiss SLIME due to emacs. It contains all the nice IDE functions - symbol completio

Fundamentally it's macros and homoiconicity of code and data that give lisp it's expressive power. Combined they grant you the power to inject new syntax / domain specific languages (DSLs) directly into your code. Any new

This seems a bit ironic to see this posted on one of the few sites on the internet that use continuations as it's primary control flow mechanism.

Most of the quora answers seem to ignore the significant shift in avionics that has occurred with the general adoption of glass cockpits. In older aircraft, you would've been staring at a wall of gauges, lamps, and buttons i.e., C130[1

It's the SOC plus their quark microcontroller on a module. I think that's the niche they are going for - ease of programming of a general purpose OS plus real-time control via the quark.

The one bit I can't find anywhere in the docs released so far. Is there a communication mechanism between the microcontroller and the main core? It's not hard to dangle a micro off of i2c or some other bus, however, I can defini

It's unlikely to be actively guided remotely. It's likely a small sensor package in the bullet itself. I imagine a simple passive guidance system akin to one of the early MANPADS (i.e., Redeye or Strela-2), but, using a laser

What about a set of software tuneable band reject filters instead of active noise reduction?

So it has some sort of CPLD-like functionality internal to the chip to map pins to logical units? Is there somewhere that you've seen that lists all blocks you can map pins to?

You've setup a helluva strawman. You're comparing returns of the entire capital stock for a chunk of the western world over the course of last century to the inflation adjusted yield curve of a specific government-bond calculated

Crosstalk, which covers defense-oriented software development, did a whole issue[1] on this a number of years ago. Now to some extent it's geared towards SEI/CMMI and waterfall crowd, however, even if you don't agree with al

Vast majority of wifi routers use MIPS. I believe the Chinese longsoon processor is MIPS-derived as well.

Typically, you would integrate it with ASP.NET the same way you do any other Single-Page App not written in JS or Typescript. It ships with a dart2js compiler that you can use in VS. However, to really get the ease of development you'

Definitely pro-gun control to the point they promote the total-ban of guns. On the other hand, and I think this illustrates a type of pragmatism, they were skeptical of proposed reforms post-Sandy Hook.
