There is probably some nostalgic influence, but it doesn't seem like that is the reason. There are many different truck companies that exist and try to tweak the design to improve some aspects. Some of these companies will be trendy fo

About Zero people use riser pads in modern skateboarding. Nobody cares about wheel-biting either, even with loose trucks. if you wheel-bite and fall, you failed to land your trick. The goal is to land 'bolts', as kids say. (Source

It is progress to get rid of leeches that are profiting off of publicly funded research. Very simple. The water was clear until Dr. Christopher Steven Marcum, Dr. Ryan Donohue, and you shat in the pool.

Listen to his responses when he is asked to explain in interviews. He quickly tries to divert the conversation away from his attention grabbing claim of 'AI is sentient', and tries to smuggle in some conversation about AI ethics.

Not everyone believes in your religion. Nothing about this has anything to do with equity or 'groups that are discriminated against'. The paywalls are about greed and wealth distribution. Trying to twist the narrative to suck symp

"The car is supposed to drive itself based on solved captcha or an army of people trying to label everything??" You're learning is a little bit off. Self driving cars are not a big truck. It's a series of tubes.

Xilinx/AMD basically provide their toolchain for free for most devices. You only have to pay when you are trying to design using the largest highest performance devices.

I can find articles saying there will be a surplus, and the shortage will continue, so not sure. I would agree that there will probably be a lot of unbalances in the supply before the situation settles.

This article's main premise is that everything can be blamed on 'bad rich CEO guy' making self-serving decisions to enrich themselves. This is probably partially true, but many others are guilty of playing this game, politici

I agree with what you are saying, but you are also only talking about notes, which is just one aspect of music. This is also what most attempts at 'AI music' will focus on, because it is much easier to generate a string of notes t

Images themselves have very little correlation beyond a few pixels in any direction. We might think of them as complex because we are interpreting 3D objects, light and building a scene from our understanding of reality, but none of this ac

An image has none of these things. That is all put together in a person's mind psychologically, and what neural nets are trained to infer. In a 2D image there is no difference between actual shadows, and for example some flat picture o

This has always been the case in the past, but these boards are build around the SOM's. You can just buy these as off-the-shelf components (not counting lead-time issues..). This makes FPGAs much more accessible especially for smaller

These boards are a combination of a SOM (system on a module) and a baseboard. The SOM's are actually designed to be used in commercial products, so they are sort of in the middle ground. You don't have to design a complex multi-la

I think I see where you are coming from. There certainly could be some power reduction if you limit the amount of switching. It's just combinatorial logic, so there shouldn't be any tool issues. The real challenge would be in veri

What you are describing is called an 'overlay'. Basically an overlay is some sort of computing architecture built with/on top of FPGA fabric. Soft processors are an example of overlay. You could imagine some kind of special l
