Well... Again this is far out of NDA time, the documents were not on site anymore. That said, I would be willing to bet that doing such an act, even as a client, would be problematic on other levels. Let's remember; part of this whol

.... At least 10 to 15-ish years ago, I would actually be closer to agreeing; You could get Cube or Chuck steak for 3-5$ a pound and potatoes were cheap as hell too. Toss some diced onion in and You'll have a good dinner. How do I know

It can but you need to be careful. At my org we use Github Copilot as our AI tool for devs, both internally and for vendors (Including a WITCH =/). Where it gets ugly, is that we have a -lot- of WITCH provided code already in our syste

Pretty good question. I remember two things about my university. First, I was a 'provisional' admission. Which meant that I had to maintain at least a C Average for the first year, Had to log a certain number of hours in one of th

P4 was such a curious thing in it's own right; a lot of ambition that was perhaps too forceful. Hell, if you -could- keep the pipeline from mispredicting and fed with data, one or two of it's internal ALUs actually ran at 2x the m

Probably depends on the kind of solitaire IMO. I feel like Klondike, -should- be simple enough with a set of vectors/arrays/lists, the biggest thing is making sure you have the traversal logic right. [0] [0] - I mean, here's

When you're playing a game, you don't -usually- see, let alone care about the underlying code, you care about what it does. At least in certain genres, the use of AI art (or worse, writing) can become obvious to the player, and it

There's in-betweens; '1T SRAM' or eDRAM. Of course, 1T SRAM isn't really SRAM, but my understanding is it doesn't require external refresh like eDRAM, is a bit easier to fab on-die than eDRAM, and is half the mm2 pe
