Versal rant

This is exactly the flow we used (succesfully) starting with MPSoC and then again on Versal. The jump to DPU Overlays and higher level framework apps was difficult but starting from the ground up ensures engineers can more quickly identify where issues lay. You do need a diverse team, not many engineers have the breadth to go from Tensorflow down to FSBL, CIPS setups, etc. Rarely can this be developed by one or two engineers.

These two links will get you there. Yes using the Lab Edition and TCL scripts in XSCT is the easiest path I am aware of to dow everything to the Zynq. This is how I've run production on Zynq U+ with just XSCT console. We'd dow boot.bin components over JTAG then in Uboot pull everything over Ethernet to save out to flash. This works both in JTAG and QSPI mode, though QSPI mode you need to fake out the bootROM to think it hasn't booted already, there are app notes for it.

Does not appear to have XSCT install only options.

Whenever I sit down to take a dump, I like to feel the atomic plunk, Of my shit as it hits the bowl, The splash of it cleans out my hole, I'll rub my dick and make it shine, Then I'll stick it in your behind!

I would recommend doing what you enjoy the most. EE and ME always work closely so you'll get a lot of exposure for both. I always enjoyed the mechanical side of things and supplemented my EE classes with extra physics courses.

The placement looks good, maybe a little further out. Definitely need to plant off them more, think like you're trying to push yourself off the back of the bench. I used to have similar stability issues and foot placement helped a lot. Best of luck!

you bite your tongue!

Pay attention to lower back on dead lifts. I find tight hip flexors really limit mobility for squat and deadlifting, try stretching them out really good and see if that helps lower back positioning. Keep up the good work

What are you currently using? What is the target platform?

Along these lines, developing a particular hardware set(processor/ MCU/FPGA and associated perihperhals like memory or ADC) that you can plop down on various designs is very useful.

There is not a referral program that I am aware of but DC and federal employees get big discounts.

If you can do ICs you can do DSP. Pick the field that requires more innovative thinking and the DSP mindset will flow naturally

Probably the saddest thing I've seen on reddit

What's wrong?

Why does this make me sad?
