So, upon further reading, I was less informed on that than I had thought. The best explanation I could find is here[1]. Basically, ANC does reduce sound pressure level when it lines up correctly. If you're listening to the sort of ambi

As several commentors have mentioned, in ear monitor (IEM) type headphones have pretty good sound isolation properties. It's important to note that active noise cancelling (ANC) headphones increase the total sound pressure on your ea

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of IP cores, but they have their place. The biggest thing that I'm a fan of is the push towards standard TCL methods for everything Vivado does or touches. That's the difference between UCF and XCF.

I'm not the best FPGA engineer out there, but I am relatively educated. I agree that most of the tools suck, but I'm quite impressed with Vivado. Xilinx has really upped their game there. Does anyone have any experience with it, a

That does work, if I actually come from the google page. I'm somewhat disturbed that that's necessary... Thanks for the help though.

Something about libuv or some lua library for libuv not wanting to build. That was after I had to do arcane things to get linuxbrew to recognize my distro's gcc, apparently it's expected to be in /usr/bin/gcc-4.X an

I actually can't get it to build on Fedora 20, at least easily. Not to mention the things I had to figure out to get LinuxBrew working at all. Neovim is not "drop in ready" until it's easy to lay hands on, which basicall

I use Wuala, which not only has a Linux client, but a FUSE module for true ease of use. It also does client-side encryption, and if you forget your password, you've lost your data, which is how it should work. I'm also reasonably

The acquisition systems in almost all medical imaging, along with their noise reduction and such are built with FPGAs. An MRI machine costs several million dollars or more, and GE sells a handful each year, so spending $10,000 on the FPGA t

I worked in medical diagnostic device design for a while, and there we needed FPGAs because literally nothing else could accept data as fast as we needed. I'm talking GHz speed ADC reading, with special purpose transceivers that are bu

The thing that strikes me as scariest about this is not the clear-cut sexual harassment and possible rape, though that's pretty unforgiveable on its own, but rather the fact that a random man posed as a security screener at a major int

This is an awesome idea/project. Sadly, I do not have any project ideas that the brilliant minds at John Deere haven't already come up with because those guys are awesome (Google can't beat their driverless tractors). I would

They're not all that much slower. Take a look at http://zedboard.org/ . That's a Cortex A9 dual core proc attached to a hell of a lot of FPGA fabric. In general, I would expect that the speed of data "out"

Slightly off-topic, but how do people here think Yandex search stacks up against Google? I mostly use DuckDuckGo at this point, but I like to have several alternatives and Google is not going to be one of them anymore.

Due to the manner in which data is client-side encrypted (password-based keys, password not stored on their servers), they can hand your (encrypted) data to any government with no ability to decrypt it. Now, depending on the outcome of some

There's a difference between seeing these stories in dribs and drabs all over the place and seeing them all on here today. It's sort of the forest vs. the trees, and I for one think that we're all starting to see the forest w

It will, but they don't provide code examples. This display is interfaced via a SPI connection, and the RPi has one SPI bus (see: http://elinux.org/RPi_SPI ). I expect that a community driver will be written presently now that there are ey
