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.

> Also I still haven’t figured out how to combine a mechanical and digital solution. Like I want light switches that match my server state for my lights. If I change the switch via…

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?

> The hardware industry can't benefit from rapid iteration because every iteration costs a mask set. Before tapeout there are steps which could benefit I suppose. But as a function…

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 developm…

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, t…

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…

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…

"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_I…

But can you imagine the adblock activated by the "flip off!" (or more colourful) thought?

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 gu…

The only linked source to this is express.co.uk, and even that doesn't direct to a related article, but the homepage... It seems that a bunch of theories and research ideas from 6 …

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 sti…

It makes me glad to read such success stories as I can partially relate. I have been working on 2/3 side projects for almost three years now, and my partner realised soon how much …

Also, in 2014, the very first episode of "The Quantum Around You" https://youtu.be/BRfkbwO8Als?t=214

Doing VHDL designs for a living here, using SystemVerilog once in a while when absolutely required. Take my words with a good pinch of salt! SV is anyway a hardware description lan…

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…

I find sprite's content so enjoyable that I would still check on his website monthly even if it had www.tic.com design!

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 was wondering why the one in danger was always black child, in every video I watched! I never thought that this could be the reason, but your comment is indeed insightful, thanks…

Looks neat. Now this needs to become a plugin for ST3!
