hehe, finally my Atten 858D reflow tool (hot air) arrived. And they added a postcard-alike notice: "we do care about environment and nature - GREEEEEN!!! - we don't ship manuals on paper anymore, to save trees and nature" BWAHAHAHAHA! On a paper postcard printed with glossy colors
<DocScrutinizer05>
I dunno if it sounds similarly strange in English and French, but the German "...machen wir einen besseren Planeten" is kinda weird. Terraforming? Or even Slartibartfas?
<wpwrak>
that's what's engineering is all about ! if earth 1.0 doesn't work, let's make a new one. get rid of those pesky trees, the fragile climate, and all that. it's nice to see the return of the spirit of the 1950es and 1960es. on this brave new world, we'll have nuclear-powered flashlights :)

(or that statement could just refer to FPGAs, which, AIUI, inherently work better in synchronous mode?)
<DocScrutinizer05>
I said something similar
<whitequark>
DocScrutinizer05: what do you think about AMULET? They had fabricated their design and it even was used in something commercial
<larsc>
whitequark: is that the one which runs faster if you put a hot coffe cup on it?
<whitequark>
it seems that the tech at least makes sense
<whitequark>
larsc: um, what? :)
<larsc>
since there is no central clock the processor runs faster if it is warmer
<larsc>
or something like that
<whitequark>
hm...
<DocScrutinizer05>
makes sense and is what I said
<whitequark>
that could be a neat feature
<larsc>
because the propagation delays change
<DocScrutinizer05>
never heard of AMULET
<lekernel>
larsc, don't propagation delays *increase* with temperature?
<lekernel>
at least they do on spartan6 ...
<larsc>
maybe it runs slower if you put a coffe cup on it
<larsc>
"When a cup of hot coffee was placed on the chip, the pulse rate (the effective "clock rate") naturally slowed down to adapt to the worsening performance of the heated transistors."
<larsc>
that makes more sense
<larsc>
btw. I've heard the hot new thing for DSPs is to use bayesian logic

it's supposed to yield the same performance at a lower power consumption
<whitequark>
interesting

funny: if you have a .txt file, mplayer will "play" it for you ;-)
<larsc>
does this also work for *.patch?
<wpwrak>
libavformat version 53.21.1 (external) Mismatching header version 53.19.0
<wpwrak>
for.txt, i get: Selected video codec: [ffansi] vfm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg ASCII/ANSI art)
<wpwrak>
also with the mismatched header. seem that it first tries avi, then gets experimental
<zrafa>
wpwrak: bah.. it would be nicer if it reads and plays on speaker the contents :)
<wpwrak>
or if it's a script for a movie or theater play, it could enact it
