Hey, we'd love to talk to them. We've heard about them a bit but not from their customers so far. If you have an intro we'd appreciate it, otherwise we'll reach out. Verilog is not the best language, totally agreed on th

Yeah, you make some good points, orchestration has been historically painful -- we've personally seen the headaches that come with scheduling on slurm and lsf; I'd guess some of the most thorough bikeshedding in history has been

Those will certainly be a big part of it. But we’ll also be adding a lot more dev friendly tooling around it as well.

Yeah, our team has experience in both hardware and software. DV engineers have a really hard time and we're trying to make it better.

Hey, thanks! CI is one component of our platform. Most other CI tools are pretty agnostic about how tests are structured, though. We also integrate a way to structure your tests into groups so you can control when each test is called. For e

Hey, good question, thanks. We speed up developers in two ways: For debugging individual tests, we have a web based log viewer and web based waveform viewer, so you can share test results or look at waves via a URL, instead of opening VNC.

Thanks for the observations. It's true that every company that needs this eventually figures something out. The difference is (a) our customers don't want to be in the devops business, and for startups especially it's a sever

UVM support is a high priority for us, and our current infrastructure should make it basically drop-in once it's ready. Drop me an email if you are interested (email in bio), we will be sure to let you know when it's ready! :)

Just to clarify though, we are targeting both ASICs and FPGAs.

Thank you! Yes, we're very excited for the new chips that will be developed in the coming years, and we'd love to help them be born.

Thank you! In fact we'll be helping our first customer with FPGA development. I don't know if we put a lot of thought into FPGAs vs semiconductors in terms of marketing but you raise good points, we'll discuss it.

I guess it's clearly within the capabilities of modern LLMs, but it's still cool to see that you can just specify linter rules with natural language now.

At least 25% of that is a single Jira project consisting of formulaic tickets to capture routine changes in production, and a large portion of that is created by automated systems. There may be other such projects too. Source: former Cloudf

With bag (multiset) semantics, {1, 2, 2} is different from {1, 2}. With set semantics, they're the same.

Fwiw I think SF Bay Area Grindr is mostly torsos as well.

Once while driving through the Navajo reservation, which is enormous and sparsely populated, my friend and I picked up two hitchhikers. I was shocked to see that their houses where we dropped them off seemed to have no power connections or

A couple things: * Unions could definitely use better software, but I don't think software can replace their core functionality. * Many companies whose main product is a seemingly simple mobile app require surprisingly large staffs. *

Amazon employs hundreds of thousands of people. I'm sure that a substantial bureaucracy would be needed in order to represent them effectively. Or are you saying that the Teamsters bureaucracy in particular is bloated relative to what

When I was around 12 I learned Dvorak and lost the ability to touch type in Qwerty, then my parents forced me to go back to Qwerty because I kept leaving the family computers in Dvorak. Because of that I can type in both, though my Dvorak i

Oh, damn. Well, I'm glad I didn't figure that out. Doing it the "right" way was fun!

"Privileged" and "marginalized" are not moral judgments.

I agree with much of what you've said, especially the part about the shared problems that poor minority and poor White people face. Based on what you've said I wouldn't say you were very "privileged." But responding

Yes, Jews are native to the Middle East, specifically the area of Israel/Palestine. But why should that make Palestinians who lost their land feel any better? It's irrelevant.

Parent probably would not have been flagged if they had documented their sweeping claim with evidence, but they didn't. It added little to the discussion.

As the article briefly touches on, these aren't limited to cooking, but even extend to eating. One weird experience I've had recently is having to explain to friends how to eat Korean food: you pick out individual bites of side di

My background: citizen of USA, son of two immigrants from Korea. Hopefully someone who actually lives in South Korea or Japan can step in here too. Subjectively, it seems to me like Japan and South Korea are somewhat culturally similar, but
