Yesterday I just sent my buddy picture with energy generation in Germany. 32,8% coal!!! So the future will be burning coal to power emission-fee cars. It’s just shocking nonsense as I see it as an engineer.

Let’s talk about my future Model X 2017 with free supercharging. The chassis is disaster from beginning to the end. The car has air suspension, it’s nice. But! You go with low setting, tires don’t last 10k miles. You go with high settings,

Maybe in US. Tesla has nothing to throw against some serious cars like Mercedes EQS or EQS SUV. Hyundai is also catching up. Charging infrastructure isn’t an issue in Europe anymore and is getting better and better every year. Tesla superc

Many ordinary people live their lives without great passions and interests. That’s absolutely ok. Not everybody is Feynman, Zornader, Da Vinci or… yes… Hitler. There is no Mein Kampf for everybody.

Not sure about reliability of battery swapping. First thing is that one needs now 2 batteries per car while one battery is being charged somewhere. It’s technically hard problem to connect and disconnect 1000s of cycles coolant lines and th

Looks like this is very Xilinx centric list. There are other vendors too. Intel/Altera being the biggest. With Lattice and Microchip probably following. Plus some newcomers I have no experience with.

I had a neighbor with Tesla and he was happy to charge his car only on superchargers. Today in Germany all fast chargers cost at least 2x more than electricity at home making electric vehicles barely economically viable. My assumption: real

Life is not a pony farm. Get used to it. As long kids and you are healthy and there is some food on your table it’s alright. Turn off your damn phone. It’s draining your mental health. Leave all your social networks. Leave all your friends

Sounds like normal day in Belarus or other less democratic country. I really don’t understand why these people choose death over other alternatives. It’s not that they didn’t know what is awaiting them. Killing some protesters is absolutely

Not really. Russia put enormous effort to bribe German politicians. Ex chancellor for example. I don’t think, that China is bribing Apple. They go there voluntarily.

My upper management wants me badly in the office. It’s 12 seat open office. These people have their own comfy offices, but work all days every week from home. What a paradox.

Woooow, neighbor’s older X3 consumes 12 liters petrol for 100 km. Looks like renewing car could be economically viable option. i4 is amazing, but not suitable for my needs having only one car in the family.

I was always wondering how people get these 6.5l/100km. Never had that. Diesel Mazda 6 was closer to 8l/100 km, old euro 3 Passat was 7, petrol Golf 4 - 8, BMW 3er no less than 10. In the BMW case it’s 21€/100km and it will b

Making it human safe with light curtain drives cost and as someone already mentioned it is patented. So it’s an expensive product for riches with integrated patent troll lawsuit. Not good starting situation for development.

Are these tools able to handle the Xilinx blocks like BUFGMUX_CTRL? Or I should still have fun by myself? That makes the difference. Writing plain VHDL and constraints is the smallest pain point for me.

I share your opinion. I know few salespeople that are calm and introvert during our private gatherings and actively talk non stop while selling. Like two personalities in one body.
