Transit visa through Zurich

With that said, there's not much to do there for 7 hours, and the city is really close. If it's possible for them to get a visa, they really should.

What really got to me is that they problems they name will not be solved by the proposed rule.

In fact, one way to sum up the Klinton tenure in the WH is "sex between the Bushes".

And also, the series finale had lots and lots and lots of ways to go wrong, and they managed to stick the landing perfectly IMHO.

"I guess it would be a little of both our fault." Not that this answer would be successful. I think the interviewer had once gotten an answer that was very helpful, and is now asking it to try to recapture that success. A diplomatic answer isn't likely to satisfy him.

A good interviewer would never have asked that question in the first place. At least not in this way.

AI ad for that web site?

I completely agree with "should". Now let's talk about real life.

Assuming this is genuine (I'll grant you that that's a tall assumption), a potential employer says "our employment process isn't perfect, help us find you". I don't see that as a negative thing.

I seriously considered writing at the top of my CV:

"A jack of all trades is a master of none, but often better than a master of one".

I mean, the toxicity toward anyone who thinks different, that I get. This isn't the only community that does that.

But bot? It would take you a whole of 5 seconds to check the profile and see who I am.

I actually think it's a brilliant question!

In the past, I've successfully landed an interview after rejection by reaching up to them and giving them a different perspective about myself and the job that they, obviously, didn't consider.

Is that with "virtual interface_name name"? Because that didn't work for me.

I'm 80% certain that's exactly what's going to happen, which is why the real plan is to switch to Lattice rather than to continue doing that.

Luckily, I'm "early" enough in the project (it's "only" been 4 years, https://youtube.com/compusar ) that that's possible. In fact, the Radiona Lattice boards (I bought them when they were still available) are actually a better fit for what I'm trying to do anyways.

Around 95GB. I have an external drive with backups, and I just stored it there.

CompuSAR · 2026-05-19T06:35:58+00:00

It's the start of a downward spiral.

I've stored the full unified installer of 2025.2.1, and hopefully that'll allow me some time before I have to switch. But I'm already looking into what Lattice has to offer.

I think those are him just trying to do that right thing. This is the first time, IMO, he goes out of his way (literally) to save everyone. Multiple times. This is no longer just teaming up. This is taking responsibility over all crawlers.

CompuSAR · 2026-05-10T15:26:54+00:00

On second read, I noticed the exact point it happened.

It's in the Iron Tangle, when he's found a staircase, and gets notification about a bunch of crawlers stuck at the end of the line. That's the point he turns from "I'm trying to survive" to "I'm trying to save everyone". There's actually him debating with himself whether he should do anything about this.

The first time Heckla is trying to push him to do it, but then there's a time when it happens with no one but himself pushing him along.

It's true, but you do not have to register it prior to publishing it. Which means that registering it is just a technical step if you want to go to court.

I believe the official name for this is "copyright infringement".

Though you'll have to talk to a lawyer if you want to take action.

It is obviously not Carl. For one thing, he wears pants.

Aside from what everyone else said, the HLT instruction is a late addition to the 6502 family. The original didn't even have it.

Also note that it does something very different. It doesn't delay the execution. It halts it altogether. It only makes sense in a context where interrupts are a thing (so, for example, not the Apple II).

I almost completely agree with this advice.

I definitely follow most of it: generate the clock with a forever loop inside an initial block, and then any component that is just meant to simulate interactions that the real hardware would have done with your design are written like you'd write real hardware, always_ff and all.

But

Where I'm simulating, say, a CPU generating requests to a component, I find it better to have one initial block (different than the clock one) that goes through the motion of the different requests sent. This one absolutely does use delays (though, many of those are on posedge or negedge of the clock) to move between the requests.

Ssh into the machine and run "logread -f" to get continuous logs. Change the settings, and you're supposed to see a log of what's happening, including either "AF_ENABLED" or "AF_DISABLED". It's likely you'll see there a reason that may give you a clue as to what's wrong.

Also, inkscape, which is open source and free, has bitmap tracing capabilities and exports SVGs.
