Weren't it for the really un-pragmatic script, I'd considering it learning it as well, even if just for the "it's frustrating there's something outside of our reach". Because, well, it is.

It's a consolation that Kaczyński was not able to gather supermajority in the parliament to change the constitution. It's unlikely to happen anyway, as he divided the Polish society in half. His party will probably rule for some t

To reify something you have to name it, apparently. I see nothing wrong about it. Apple spends billions on R&D yet still manages to push crap designs to the market (as evidenced by Louis Rossmann). If naming something *-gate will make a

A bit of a premium? I'd say their prices are an insult to their customers. It's not even new chips where you'd expect this as they need to recoup NRE. Oh no, they price gouge on designs that are decades old. Avoid them at all

There is no validation team, however everyone can check the latest edits [1]. If there's a developed community in a location, say someone in your city, you can validate it yourself. Someone can use Notes feature [2] and report that the

The shrink is usually done at the fab. I.e. layout designers pretend to draw in a higher nm node, then the fab scales the layout. Like 28->22 nm, or 16->12 nm and so on. Transistor models stay roughly the same, often they include SPIC

Might be true, recently there have been highly boasted improvements in the RTL-to-GDSII pipeline, using AI, as one does. Both from Cadence and Synopsys.

Oh yeah. I have friends who work or have worked at Intel. Management who runs this company are straight lunatics. The sheer amount of shelved projects, pointless reorgs, layoffs-for-show is staggering. I do work in a corp, but thanks God ou

Japanese companies seem to have a boner for custom ASICs. I never understood that. For example Roland uses custom chips [1] for their synthesizers and effects, where they could use almost any DSP on the market. Likewise printer manufacturer

OSM is a map first, not a business directory - although these do overlap. Admittedly, businesses without a marked presence are not de facto priority (as in: no explicit rule, but they don't get mapped first). Shops, restaurants and so
