Oh boy we invented Axlotl tanks!

He managed to make the first and only successful pro sport outside of the NFL and NBA and MLB in a century. As long as the shareholders gets what they want, who cares?

Absolutely correct

Sure, but it's the same thing in 10x fewer words. Having parametric generic types that accept constraints allows your functions to have the best of all worlds. So a language _with_ that is superior. All zig needs to do is add some way

Well, Intel management is very good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

This is _also_ doable with the ability to constrain generics. sort<A> where A implements Comparable Simpler explanation IMO.

Null modem is also an excellent name for anything vaguely cyberpunk

1000% all these ai hardware companies will fail if they don't have this. You must have a cheap way to experiment and develop. Even if you want to only sell a $30000 datacenter card you still need a very low cost way to play. Sad to see

Hence the subjunctive :)

Well no one bothered to actually implement it so who cares whether they thought it first or not?

Finally. We should use numerical relativity and simulate using full-fat GR. Not the half-assed approximations.

Typical plan 9, change for the sake of change. Second system effect writ large.

That doesn't preclude syntactic compatibility, does it?

Sure but golang has its own special assembly flavor rather than using standard gcc flavor inline assembly. Probably because it's a soup to nuts compiler but still.

Good. It was a pointless standard now that ble exists.

This is the real hacker news. More of this! We need more curiosity about things :)

by nimish 2y ago
They could have added crypto primitives via intrinsic, or had some other way of including the edge case functionality it solves. But it's good enough and I guess it compiles quick which was a major goal for golang.

CKD/SKD is the legal version of this tactic. It's not new. It's a great way to get around tariffs though!

Alice did this 20 years ago? Smalltalk did this 50 years ago? What's new and cool about this one? I'm jaded and cynical. I want to be proven wrong.

I wonder if anyone's bothered to assay their alloy to reverse engineer it.

If they support aoa and other ultra modern ble features they have to expose the raw IQ samples to a higher layer for dsp. That's not the same as full control since you have to trigger it using gfsk anyway but there's other MCUs w

No, I mean rf mcus that let you do all the way down to IQ sampling or pulse shaping. It's up to the developer to decide what level you let the hardware handle. This is how those proprietary rf protocols work for mice and such.
174.
by nimish 2y ago
Some microcontrollers have much better documented rf subsystems. Onsemi has a well documented RSL15 radio. Nordic has docs and there's an open source ble implementation from apache too.

Do we need one? Quarantine them from the countries that can't or won't enforce discipline on prescription and the problem solves itself.

Ethernet doesn't need a transformer. You can use capacitive isolation as well. But your point still stands though the edge transitions provide easier clock recovery too.

If anyone is wondering why nVidia is dominant, it's because this guy can run the same CUDA stuff as the $30000 H100 So everyone can play around and develop for it. That's how you get to software dominance, and then can reap the re

Gelsinger did not entirely do what needed to be done: cut the fat, _encourage_ the lean -- rebuild the culture of growth that made Intel strong. Re-light the fire. Perhaps he wished us to identify the real culprits: the negligent board. Or,
