Yes we stopped building. Because every new technology is sold as a way to fire people and not “grow the pie”. What do you expect? Rich folk don’t like it when poor people get more. It’s not partisan, it’s class based.

When the the only thing CEOs talk about for every new technology is how many people they are going to put out of work because of it, the collective desire for new technology and progress is understandably lessened.

Other countries don’t have the bodycount of dead children like the USA. If anything it proves that less guns makes you safer. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%27No_Way_to_Prevent_This,%2...

Apple won’t let you install software you wrote onto your own computer. Culturally the same as Ma Bell.

I have had an ember mug for a couple years now. Never have used the app. Works fine without, unless you want to tweak the temp from default.

System Verilog is the C++ of chip design. It sucks, but it’s everywhere and tied into everything. Like C++ there are so many ways to write dangerous code. We do need a new chip design language but it’s going to take something special to mov

Sideloading, otherwise known as installing software you want, on hardware you own. Love how the term tries to make it sound so suspicious.

The ADA also helps anyone who has kids and a stroller. Also helps people when they are injured and immobile for a time. Dealing with these things in other countries makes you appreciate the ADA so much more.

Being actively updated and maintained when Perl wasn’t helped Python dramatically.

Code can absolutely be incorrectly indented in python and to make matters worse it changes the functionality of the code when it is.

The current state of every app store search is atrocious. IOS, Android, and Windows store. Even if you search for exact terms on IOS you have to slog through large amounts of BS. This is not a new thing.

Because the CEO shares your politics and is only allowing your brand to express themselves at work you want to work there. I mean I understand the feeling but can we stop pretending that this isn’t entirely political?

Not an assumption. Just the data showing this to be true almost universally across the US. Statistically, breakthrough cases also skew older. Locally where I live >95% of patients in the hospital with COVID are unvaccinated.

Have you read the verilog spec? Half the commercial vendors haven’t implemented large portions of the spec or have implemented it differently from each other. I’d love to have the momentum around open source EDA tools. At this point I’m not

The entire EDA stack from front to back is so ridiculously bad. System Verilog, UVM and the ecosystem that works on it are equally terrible. Just depressing all around.

COVID has almost nothing to do with the erosion of civil liberties in the US. That ship sailed to much applause after 9/11 and neither party has done anything to remove the powers they have. Trying to rewrite this as some sort of COVID

Social activities are most certainly trivial when compared to a pandemic. Right now my kid’s school is starting remote only primarily because teenagers and early 20’s somethings couldn’t stop going to parties over the summer. Actions have c
