  1. The information has to be reliable by OutputLogic · · Score: 1 · on MIT Develops Camera-Like Fabric

    For a soldier to detect a threat the information coming from such a uniform has to be reliable:

    - it should work in different weather (rain,snow) and light conditions (day,night)
    - it should detect threats moving at different speeds (bullet,running person,vehicle) and different distances (helicopter, sniper)
    - it should never produce "false negative" information: it's better to detect an invalid threat rather than miss the real one

    Not a simple task

  4. Koenigsegg CCX doesn't fall far behind by OutputLogic · · Score: 1 · on Bugatti's Latest Veyron, Most Ridiculous Car on the Planet?

    Koenigsegg CCX doesn't fall far behind Bugatti Veyron:
    - price: $2,100,000
    - 1018 hp
    - top speed of 257 mph

    And on top of it: it's buying Saab. Koenigsegg has only 45 full time staff empolyees and sold 18 cars last year,which is 97,982 less than SAAB did.

  8. Territorial dispute with Japan by OutputLogic · · Score: 1 · on Pictures of Kuril Islands Volcano From ISS

    Are those the same Kuril Islands that are source of the territorial dispute between Russia and Japan. Maybe after that volcano there is a chance Russia and Japan will finally sign a peace agreement - who needs those islands anyways.

  10. It's a full time job by OutputLogic · · Score: 1 · on You're (Probably) Not Going To Be a Pro Blogger

    Having some talent is one thing. But running a good blogging site is also a time-consuming job. Think about how much time it takes to write a quality post that attract a lot of traffic. Another thing is promote that blog. It requires constant attention. Don't reply to comments for a few weeks and you'll see the traffic drops significantly. So I'd argue that people who spend a lot of time blogging and promoting it have a chance to earn some money.

    How about putting DNS servers on a neutral territory. Mars is a good candidate: there is a growing list of countries that launch their probes there. There will some web access delay, but it's another issue.

  20. Re:learn digital design, then learn syntax by OutputLogic · · Score: 1 · on VHDL or Verilog For Learning FPGAs?

    Totally agree.
    VHDL and Verilog differences are insubstantial as far as synthesizable code is concerned. As far as code readability I prefer Verilog because it's more concise.

  25. Xilinx software by OutputLogic · · Score: 2, Insightful · on VHDL or Verilog For Learning FPGAs?

    How is this info relevant in 2009 ? I've been working with Xilinx in the last 9 years and can attest that their software has a decent quality. By "decent" I mean no better or worse that its competitor Altera. There are occasional bugs which are quickly fixed or tech support offers a work-around.

    Thanks
