I'm probably getting older, but this gives me a speck of hope. Maybe some teens will rediscover or reinvent the pre-social 2000s web.

Yes, Ada not ADA, my mistake which ironically Ada's case insensitivity wouldn't have caught :)

Any recommended resources to get up to a sufficient comprehension of functional programming for an EE who didn't get to study functional programming?

VHDL springs off of ADA, so I wouldn't say it was specifically developed. Anyway, ADA and VHDL are strongly typed, which incidentally works well with critical applications development such as hardware design.

You have high-level-synthesis tools on many FPGA vendors tools, using C/C++ or even Python for hardware description. I personally don't think they are superior than typical HDLs, the thing that makes the difference is to think abo

True, I directly answered the syntax-related question, but talking about implementation this would be a bad description - be it FPGA or ASIC. As the parent's-parent comment said in other words, think circuit first.

HDL (hardware description languages - Verilog and VHDL the most representative ones) do actually work like that. They give you access to structural descriptions for bitwise control, but also and mostly behavioural descriptions which allows

"great cheeses" is rather subjective... Wikipedia (and my personally biased experience confirms) states who has got the most cheese variety: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Italian_cheeses I would argue

Nice article, I didn't know this iterative process could trace back to Feynman. Anyway, I suppose it would benefit the article if the title was to reflect the original as per HN guidelines

Interesting, I wonder if up/downvoting the ads in the way you describe influences the frequency they are displayed. I would guess this is not the case, but then apparently they still are just videos subject to youtube's algorithm.

Indeed VHDL is supposedly based as much as possible on Ada syntax. Naturally you would have several differences due to the purpose of the languages, but they are _very_ similar IMO

Same for me, I see many comments about this not being ideal for scalable projects or Saas, but in my experience gitflow has worked well even for maintaining pcb design repositories!

I discovered Radare2 some years ago, and found that Cutter strongly lowers the learning curve of r2. On that note, I used to play (as a n00b) to some crackmes and ctf, but not having kept up to date I can't find a live replacement for

If I'm correct TextMate was first using multiple cursors before sublime text came, but yes, sublime text has such a versatile UI!
