Does beaming power to earth change the energy in the system? At least with solar all energy was already being absorbed by the earth's atmosphere, just being converted to another form and ultimately back to heat. By beaming energy that

I've never waited. 95% of my charging is at home. The other 5% is Tesla superchargers and have never waited. At most 90% of slots taken, so close, but never had to wait so far.

There is no need to charge for an hour today unless the car is first gen EV or the charger is not a fast charger. The fast charger roll out could be better, but it's expanding quote rapidly, only in the most rural places is it a major

Thanks, so a single clock and reset is implicit, but clock2 (or more) is explicit.

Everytime I look at the examples, coming from a verilog background, it's strange to see the clock and reset are all implicit rather than explicit. The blinking led for example, while readable the link between the generated verilog with

This is a very valid point. 100% AMD need better support of consumer cards to get research, university and everyday folks using their SW. The high end consumer7900 xtx are supported now, and a lot of other cards not officially supported act

HIP is a direct drop in for CUDA. It's ready, and many folks using it ported CUDA code with little to no effort. The SW story has been bad for a long time, but it is perhaps right now better than you think

Extremely impressive, well done.

AMD also have HIP which is almost exactly CUDA, but target agnostic, so basically now CUDA code will now run on AMD hardware. So they have the low level via HIP, and have also integrated into the libraries like pytorch. It's a great bi

Actually a sexual predator did call me when I was primary school. Back then when the phone rang as the principal was also a teacher, a student would run out to answer the phone. One day it was my turn. I answerd and asked politey how I cou

It means it's designed as a direct drop in replacent for a traditional microblaze ISA code..sure software must be recompiled, but hardware interfaces match what was there before for peripheral access, debug, instruction offload, etc. T

I just looked briefly at the simple lfsr and fir filter examples, and have to say they look more complex than a sustemverilog version. Perhaps the benefit comes in the hls implementation option...

Shit. I remember clearly spraying roundup out of a backpack sprayer on a calm day, when a stray gust of wind blew some of the spray back up and into my face. I often wonder if I inadvertently sealed my fate despite that level of exposure be

Thanks, makes total sense. If the first counter is free running then it should look pretty random if sampled when there are collisions as those would be random themselves. Love how simple the solutions are when transistors were expensive.

I work in ASIC design, and while it seems like gobbledygook, it's not too hard to grok with some experience. Ken's blogs help a lot in that regard. For context, compared to modern chips these are extremely simple, bit at the time

One part I didn't follow 2qs where then pseudorandom element is introduced. This seems like it can implement variable delays in powers of 2 based on the mask.

The latest microblaze is already RISC-V under the hood, but of course other vendors can be used too.

I would say this was partially true in my case. While I ate badly, I didn't eat huge portions regularly. I also didn't eat breakfast regularly then (and often don't now either). In college we got fish and chips takeaway once

I've always been curious about my own metabolism. When I was a teenaeger / in university I ate pretty badly. Chocolate bars every day after lunch, loads of carbs, not to mention alcohol, etc etc. I was rail thin. I once got a body

I was talking about this with a colleage today who does benchmarking. He was of the opinion that the os scheduled generally does a better job than manual core pinning, but would be interested to hear more on your experience.

The price for all units sold is set by the highest producer at a any one moment. This led to windfall profits for generators with fixed costs like wind. It's not a functioning market. Imagine if the price of a beer everywhere in the US

AMD playing catch up is a good thing, their SW solution is intended to run on any HW, and with hip being basically line for line compatible with cuda it makes porting very easy. They did it with FSR,and they are doing it with rocm. Hopefull

Not really, modern phones have fast charge capability that's been improving generation over generetion, so what happens is new chargers are bought to take advantage of that. The older gen chargers are E-waste either way, and apple get

Those charts are at 35w for the Ryzen, so calling that a comparison with a server class processor is a stretch. I don't see the power of the M2 in those benchmarks, do you know what it was for reference?

by tails4e 3y ago
Latest zen4 is very competitive power wise with M2, M2 still has the crown,but laptop battery life is dominated by other parts of the system when you're down to 1 to 2 W of cpu power for light workloads.

Yes the UK plug design is the best I've seen. Mandatory 3rd pin to open the shutters, insulated prongs until they are well disconnected, and very solid fit. More often than not I see plugs half falling out of US sockets, with live and

And given the US outlet design, I imagine people do come into contact with 110v quite frequently!

UK and Ireland (as we copy a lot from the UK) spaces are ridiculously small. Average cars struggle to fit. Big cars / SUVs must be a nightmare to park. Not sure why car park designers don't have one less space per row, and make ev

Interesting, from the screen shots it seems windows 1.0 had what looks like a burger menu on the top left, and a task at (or status bar) on the bottom. Went full circle 30+ years later.
