For me the issue to be solved is how to easily get the team to run the tool. Some focus should be on integrating build tools. When I or a team member do gradle build, npm build or cargo build or similar on a fresh checkout the tool should

I used to have lucid dreams regularly until I was 17, until I told a friend and never had a "real" one since. I am not sure if it is connected. I mostly used it to avoid nightmares as a child, unfortunately after a while, I got ps

Anyone have some insight into why RISC-V seems to be getting traction? Has there not been prior attempts to make an open source cpu? Is there a lot of skill in making the ISA? It seems to me (naively) that most talented EE students could pr

If you leave the comments, doesn't the code get cluttered? If you remove the comments, don't you lose information? I could see this being useful if there was a script, that moved the comments out into either the commit message or
