That is excellent, and explains much!
> CLIC was awful (thankfully it has been abandoned) Could you expand a little on what made it a bad design? I'm not much up on RISC-V.
I re-took Computer Architecture recently, and we used their earlier book "Digital Design and Computer Architecture: ARM edition", and it was also excellent.
From the GitHub page: > It is a Gameboy Advance from a parallel universe where RISC-V existed in 2001. A love letter to the handheld consoles from my childhood, and a 3AM drunk text to the technology that powered them.
> We think it is highly likely that these LX2 chiplets are etched using SMIC 7 nanometer processes at the N+3 refinement, and we base that on the fact that the chip only runs at 1.55 GHz. That is nowhere near the 3 GHz…
I was a programmer, and moved over to biology recently. I was very "wtf is R" when I started, but slowly its strengths are coming through. I found the combination of the REPL plus the IDE, and the language syntax,…
I love this, it's like a grown-up PrintShop.
That's fascinating, I remember my Dad telling me you would pay for something in guineas as a sort of tip, but I never knew it was for horses (this is in Australia).
I loved Swaine's Flames from DDJ. Shame I missed his revival.
Great map! No Opeth?

You'd think they'd just ban repeat offenders.
Yeah, you'd think they'd include that. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aec6413 "Upon treatment with acid, that bond breaks to release more than a megajoule per kilogram of the compound, enough to rapidly…

Do you mean for a teaching job, or just any job? Certainly in fields like biology, you can only be taken seriously by others in the field by having an advanced degree (which is really only the beginning). In computing,…

I loved the Circuit Cellar columns. It was all very over my head, but I loved the descriptions and the writing, and the process.
BYTE mag and Creative Computing were the first computing magazines I read, and really kick-started my excitement with computers, even though everything was out of my reach (either too expensive as a kid, or running on…
I don't know much about him, only that he was in the same party. I have heard that he is pro-EU and anti-Russia though, is that true?
I clicked on this fearing it was a "256 bytes of JS" (plus X GB of browser), and was pleasantly surprised it was actually 256 bytes.
I checked out some subreddits on the mission, and left pretty quickly for that reason. It's nice to find some positivity and wonder at it. I love what Artemis II is doing, found the launch very exciting and a little…
Game making is like film making in this regard: it's often a "passion job."
