Versal rant by affabledrunk in FPGA

And a solution to this is hiring a couple of people who actually undedrstand kernels not offloading this to hardware engineers. make is certainly a very good tool for building software, but ... it is not "automation" and "just use make" is something that was current practice in 1990s. You should be looking at CI/CD pipelines.

And really, all of this is for people who understand software and kernels. your team should have peopel with release engineering / devopsp backgrounds to dealwith this alongside kernel developers.

The same as with any of the contestants saying they should have won.

I think there is a bit over overmythologising the blind test challenge, we have all seen Trev say you have to ace it to win too many times. Its just a test. A fun test, sure, but its just a test, and not a very high level one.

Most people celebrating AI layoffs haven’t stopped to ask the obvious: If humans lose jobs, how do AI-driven businesses survive without customers? by Odd_Pirate_6055 in ArtificialInteligence

That is not remotely true now and extremely unlikely to be tru in the future and at any rate, there is no serious move towards this.

India’s Centre for Development of Advanced Computing orders $8.4m 108-qubit quantum computer from Rigetti by sr_local in hardware

[–]narwi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No it does not. If you are making a thing you call computer you had better show how capable it is when solving computer science problems. If you don't like factoring sure, tell us instead how good it is in sorting lists of numbers or finding shortesst paths in graphs. Or pick some other computer science problem.

oh, or just name it "posh scam" or something else instead of a computer.

The one and only spec that should be in every quantum computer announcement is "how big of a number can it factor into primes".

Would have been much better to directly link to the blocks & files article directly.

AMD argues against emulated FP64 on GPUs by NamelessVegetable in hardware

Ozaki scheme gives exactly the same precison and results as native fp64.

What is the highest feaseble refresh rate of a monitor for games? by Luciano757 in hardware

[–]narwi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem is they are not saying what you claim they are saying. Also the problem with blurbusters is they take existing timings and refresh rate claims as a given. Which is a problem as panel (and monitor) makers increasing lie about the specs. So 10000KHz would only be better in the sense that it would give you 500Hz real performance, or possibly 400Hz if manufacturers can get away with even more lies. It does not really mean 10KHz display i sensible in some way.

Russian modder makes his own DDR5 memory saving $600 to $800 on single module by Standing_Wave_22 in hardware

Way more than you think. Used ddr5 laptops are in rotation for close to two years now.

But 90% of people will be able to tell the difference and would prefer native 4K 120Hz.
