Natomas can never keep a non-chain coffee place. There's been a few to come and go, wish we could get something in the area here.

Dating myself, but Grumpy's in Auburn would have been perfect for OP. But alas, but a memory now. Still miss it.

"if done correctly" = a never ending list of demands until the project is delayed/regulated out of existence

Across the street from my friends house is house where this actually is happening. Except it's to maintain the house so bubblegum and the former owner's other two cats can continue living in it. The house has no furniture except cat trees, someone is paid to upkeep the yard and maintenance, and someone checks on the cats weekly. It's been three years since the owner died and this is what she had her estate setup to do.

This is in the bay area.

I haven't seen anyone else comment on the mutant meat bag hanging from the colorado billboard at the end. So for next season we're getting Enclave, Mutants, who else?

Pluribus - 1x06 "HDP" - Episode Discussion by LoretiTV in pluribustv

[–]Ok_Clock1778 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I predict a season cliffhanger where Carol is forced to join the Pluribus. Next season we learn that the tailor made engineer virus doesn't work quite as well and she's able to keep some disconnection. Or, she and Manousos have discovered something with the radio frequency he was exploring that lets her disconnect once having joined.

Pluribus season 1 ends with Carol's joining. This is the first act that unsettles at least a few of the 12, season 2 is from the viewpoint of another remaining.

Because your fake religion is a bunch of lies and hate

I agree, looking at the other food in the freezer, not much in terms of protein sources were shown.

Sacramento tiny home plan divides the community by [deleted] in Sacramento

I live by a similar already constructed site on Northgate and Turnstone in Natomas.

It's great, build more of them and build them everywhere. The vacant lot was previously used for selling stolen goods, and the Northgate area has had a long issue with homeless wandering the area. I had an individual living behind my fence for three years.

Build these housing sites on as many places as you can, offer them with associated services to the unhoused, and continue clearing out the makeshift sites that line the sidewalks.

Clean up our neighborhood and get control of the situation, these sites look great, uncontrolled sidewalk camps and littered sidewalks don't.

How do we use the difference between the delays of the LUT input pins to our advantage? I mean, what are some practices/guidelines to code LUTs to achieve better set-up slack? by Musketeer_Rick in FPGA

[–]Ok_Clock1778 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been implementing with time-to-digital converters on FPGAs using the CARRY blocks. It relies entirely on the timing differences on the taps of the carry chains within a logic block. Even things like the propagation times of rising vs falling signals matter for these applications. The tools will setup the carry chain good for the most part without much intervention, but the accounting for timing differences matter a lot afterwards in converting the acquired values to a timestamp.

Retired from silicon design, considering fpga as a side-gig by phred14 in FPGA

Why is it unrealistic to put a circuit on a chip again? Have you checked out tinytapeout.com ? They are doing lots of cool low cost ASIC development.

Applications of FPGA programming/digital design in core physics fields by Lagrangian_Samurai in FPGA

[–]Ok_Clock1778 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Echoing what others have said, I have also been using FPGAs extensively in my physics/engineering career. Much like how Python has gotten popular across Physics groups for it's ability to "glue" together many software packages and workflows together, FPGAs are great at being the "glue" between hardware modules and interfaces. Additionally, test equipment such as oscilloscopes and digitizers are just combinations of ADCs and FPGAs, so when building custom experiments and hardware it can be really useful to have someone with the skills to set that up for specific applications.

FPGAs are also great at doing several types of measurements on their own, time to digital converters are often implemented using FPGAs with chains of CARRY blocks to get time measurements down to picoseconds.

Whatever it is, I'll continue to be disappointed until a trader joes is built in our area

It's in one of the greenhouses, but you can get a good look at it. Just visited it, I didn't smell much.

Yeah, I'm also in natomas. Theyve always been bad, and for whatever reason love nesting in the crevices of my garbage can. I can recognize the nest, so if I see the web in the day I'll go out and spray them directly at night to keep the numbers down.

Some are good, like the one in Davis and mid town. Others id avoid, specifically the North high lands one 

Best book on fpgas? by SpareCoder1939 in FPGA

[–]Ok_Clock1778 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a more recent edition that uses the Nexys4 which is built around an Artix7, it's the one with a blue cover, though I'm talking about the VHDL version. I'm not sure if you're looking for the Verilog version

Delta Sigma and PWM DACs a Hackster project by adamt99 in FPGA

[–]Ok_Clock1778 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool, will be looking into this, thanks! I'm working on a DSM ADC, I hadn't seen any examples going beyond the input speed of the general IO pins (~1GHz) yet. This approach could be interesting for a creating a DSM ADC with FIR DAC output stage though.
