First thing to do is get a GPIO pin or two to toggle. Plenty of debug patterns that one can blink out.

Magic-1 and BMOW did similar, a while back. See: https://www.homebrewcpu.com/ The actual list of sites who have built their own CPUs: https://www.homebrewcpuring.org/

Far simpler, cheaper, and closer to the "understandable by one mind" machine. Add Bywater BASIC, if desired.

gcc will not let you actually define a negatively-sized array. Check it with some simple code -- I did. Even with -Wall -Wextra -O1 -std=c11 -Wpedantic, if I actually try to create foo[-1], on the stack or in BSS, I get the proper error: er

Artix 7 is simplistic compared to any of the Versal chips. You buy an expensive FPGA and then try using an "open-source" tool chain that exposes 25% of the FPGA's potential. Not a great trade-off, eh?

It's not just that the boards are expensive; you'll also need a Vivado license to create any designs for it. That license is at least several thousand dollars for the Versal devices.

"The compose window now also takes up less space with recipients listed in “pills” instead of an entire line for every address.." Yup, already hate it. I much prefer not looking through a list of buttons on the To line for the one

You clearly didn't understand my meaning. I suggest re-reading what I wrote, and then think about the "90%" figure. I'd flag your insulting "stupid conclusion" statement, but I'm sure someone else will do

There is a limit to reasonable accommodations. For instance, restaurants are not required to feed you if you cannot lift a fork. From my reading, social anxiety has only recently been suggested as a disability under the ADA, in one state. I

You could always obtain a TDD terminal, use those facilities to call the restaurant (call TDD, interpreter then calls the restaurant, ..) to place the order. IANAL. You could also sue and see how it comes out.

I live in a state which has one of the highest new-cases-per-day number, and we can still go get take-out. 1) I call in my order. 2) I drive to the restaurant. 3) I put my mask on. 4) I go inside, get my sack of food. 5) I drive home. We do

The market determines what is reasonable, not you (or any one person). "Recover their cost"? What is this, communist Russia? So what if the food providers sell off to the delivery services? Perhaps it will result in a better match

Indeed. Let the market discover the proper price for this service.

Lol. Reminds me of The Crown where Price Charles is learning Welsh. However, at least all the letters are familiar. Asian languages are at least an order of magnitude harder for westerners.
