Mods, can we please get the "?m=1" part of the url removed? I think the current link is for mobile.

I remember hearing something about there being problems with RISC-V+GCC since FSF wanted copyright assigned to them. [1] RISC-V did make it to llvm[2], with there being healthy development there. I remember Fedora running on RISC-V successf

Well, I'm worried about hardware backdoors even now too. Although there is always the 'know your hardware' tag advertised with RISC-V, that's not going to change until we have complete control(or trust) of the fabs. It&

I'm actually a bit more confident. The only thing stopping manufacturers in china from selling good CPUs (anything above tiny microcontrollers) is because their investment won't pay off in case they get sued. But with this open ha

This page has the first mention of Google TPUs since the initial announcement from Google. Anyone know what the status is? When TPUs will be allowed to be used in Google Cloud? I'm confused as to why they ever announced it at a big eve

that defeats the whole purpose of dropbox though. You can have a cheap ftp server for $10/year if you look hard enough. But the argument for dropbox is that you have a client for almost every platform you can use. With S3 you'll h

Most of the time when a company wants to get good at something, there are more factors than just the data/software involved. The developers who created it. It'll be more difficult to hire and train a completely new team of people,

But it's not LTS. All the major software stuff will be well supported for 16.04 till 18.04. If you look around, you'll mostly find 14.04/16.04 in supported OSes. Even for OSS software, not just commercial stuff.

Apparently my comment looks like I'm criticizing Google for making money off OSS projects. That is NOT what I meant to do. I like companies that make companies that open source their commercial products. It means they aren't paran

I think most interesting part of all this is that they're offering support for this[1]. So that and it now being a part of G suite is making it an 'official' service/product. And since Chromium browser is an open source

You're right #3 is not right, but its not completely wrong either. Looks like issues on github won't be used, but PRs won't really be used since there isn't going to be any merging done using PRs. Maybe it'll be a

This is awesome! So this is some of the important stuff: 1. Use the LEDE codebase, rather than OpenWrt's (undecided but likely). They'll first push any new changes in OpenWrt since the fork into LEDE, and then rebrand move complet

Wow, you just described everything that commaai[1] did (or tried to do). They tried the kit that can be self installed[2] but decided not to continue[3] They also have a dataset that can be downloaded by anyone[4] And they have open sourced

Jeeva is a telugu[1] word, which is actually pronounced 'jee-vaa' athough Jeev does mean a living thing in Hindi. It's easily to get confused with less popular Indian languages as being Hindi words because it's more popu

The FPGA in the image is the retail version. But it's more than likely that amazon is using the same one since they don't modify the GPUs although they purchase them on a much larger scale.

Maybe I should've included this but older versions are not much different from the new one and the more older ones go for dirt cheap compared to the new one. Here's a 4th edition used book for $13.95 http://www.ebay.com

I would suggest Digital Design by Morris Mano[1]. It'll start off with basic intro from digital gates to FPGAs itself! And you really don't need any EE background for this book. This book starts from absolute basics and it'll
