Re:Google's driverless cars designed to exceed speed limit on Tuesday August 19, 2014 @04:57PM (#8199781)
Is this speed measured by GPS or vehicle?

In my experience, even though speedmeter in the instrument panel shows 10mph over, actual GPS speed is around speed limit.

Wow, after viewing the examples, almost 10% battery was consumed.
Re:Atom Is Now Open Source on Thursday May 08, 2014 @12:59AM (#7714016)
I wonder why almost every apps that was introduced at first don't support wide character type system such as CJK.

Atom's soft wrap doesn't works well. It seems to count character length in order to split the line.

Re:CLaSH: A functional hardware description language on Tuesday April 15, 2014 @10:22PM (#7595688)
Thank you for explaining my thought. I'm not good at English.

In my experience, it is quite easy to describing the hardware logic if the architecture is designed well. So, what I mean in "VISIO and Excel are much more important" that the architecture should be concise and cycle accurate. Then verilog coding is just a piece of cake.

Re:CLaSH: A functional hardware description language on Tuesday April 15, 2014 @06:12PM (#7594637)
I am hardware engineer in this industry. And I know Haskell and made my site with Haskell language. But I do not understand why Haskell is used to hardware design.

Designing hardware is much more important than describing hardware logic itself. IMO, VISIO and Excel are the tools to design hardware logic not Verilog nor like this CLaSH.

But, If this kind of HDL can be used along with Verilog, it might be helpful to build verification IPs.

If you are correct for the first clause(8 Flops/MHz), 45GHz of Ivy Bridge core has 360k Flops (8 Flops/MHz * 45GHz ==> 8 Flops * 45k).

But when we consider the consuming power of ASIC platform, I think this board has strength. They said this board consumes 5 watt for typical jobs.

I agree with you. This might be good for bitcoin mining. :)
Re:Use Jekyll To Keep Your Blog From Folding Under Traffic on Friday October 05, 2012 @12:03AM (#4615631)
I'm using Hakyll which derived from Jekyll with Git server. It is quite appropriate for personal simple website like mine.

To edit page for website, just open terminal and edit and git commit & push. That's all. After git server accept the push request, it rebuilds and publishes the website automatically like Github with Jekyll.

The translation is almost same, however, the meaning is quite different.

Chinese 망양보뢰 means that it is not too late to fix the cowshed after lost. Korean, however, shows the useless of the fixing activity. Later connotes the regret.

:)

There's verb in Korea.

Fix the cowshed after loosing cows.

I definitely save this article not for the awesome main post but for the useful comments and replies.

Thanks all.

Re:First Python 2.7 interpreter to use multiple cores on Wednesday May 09, 2012 @06:42PM (#3950866)
It seems to use Software Transactional Memory scheme. I hope that it will work better with hardware-aided transactional memory in Intel's next generation architecture Haswell.
you are really super fast! I just got 80 WPM with mechanical keyboard (The Cheat CMA)
I agree with it. If Apple supports Device Management scheme, S.Korea Military won't prevent iPhone. Actually not just iPhone but all other phones that MDM cannot be installed.
Re:How to read Korean in 15 minutes on Monday April 23, 2012 @06:55PM (#3881423)
As I am Korean, I also feels same difficulty for English sound between 'r' and 'l'. 'f' and 'p'. because in Korean, 'r' and 'l' have same sound 'ㄹ'
Re:How to read Korean in 15 minutes on Monday April 23, 2012 @06:50PM (#3881396)
that kind of irregular sounds is usually happened at final consonants to move smoothly to next letter.
Re:How to read Korean in 15 minutes on Monday April 23, 2012 @06:46PM (#3881374)
Korean (letter) is easy. Korean (language) is quite difficult. There are many irregular syntax and postposition. Also, there are many rules for a prolonged sound.
Re:How to read Korean in 15 minutes on Monday April 23, 2012 @06:44PM (#3881364)
before Korean was invented, Chinese letters are used in Korea. Korean was invented based on the form of mouth that need to speak that sound. For example to say 'ㄱ', your mouth should be form like that.

Not all Korean letter was made based on this concept but King Sejong who is known as inventor of Korean tried to make the public learn letter and write letter quickly, that requires easily understandable form.

Re:Hacker News Redesign on Friday April 20, 2012 @09:29PM (#3870526)
IMO, most important design value for HN should be readability. But this design? I don't think so. It just distract viewer's focus.

Current HN has too wide with respect to font size neither. :(

Re:My Git Habits on Thursday March 15, 2012 @07:09PM (#3711083)
By the way, that article page is too hard to read comfortably. Shortened the width of each paragraph and upsize the font will be really good for me to read it.

tl;dr , I didn't read that page. :(
