Verilog is a hardware description language, not a programming language.
It's both! Writing synthesizeable Verilog (or direct structural descriptions) is more hardware oriented, writing Verilog behavioral models and simulations is more programming language, and I would say the two 'views' overlap in both cases.
While I'm not sure how useful Verilog is for a strictly software developer, as a hardware and software developer I agree the combination of Verilog and C can't be beat. They are complimentary and knowing one often lends insight to using the other.
More precisely there will be 15 billion Republiborgs and 15 billion Demoborgs. You may think voting is futile, but you wouldn't want the wrong borg to get in would you?
This reminds me of the painful driver development from NT4 to Windows 2000. A few years before release MS was pushing us to port NT4 drivers to Win2K. We jumped on it quickly and had working drivers, but as the years rolled by changes would be made that broke the earlier work. This rinse and repeat continued to the *very* end. Years of wasted time and resources for no reason.
What I learned from that is to start looking at new Windows driver documentation a few months before release and then wait until the actual release before changing or writing any code. You just don't know what fundamental changes will occur until the discs are on retail shelves.
You sure as hell can't trust what MS tells you as a developer about interface changes and release dates.
Heh, I couldn't agree more. Prepare to be flamed by parents who are convinced their children are little angels and could never annoy anyone in a movie theater or restaurant.
I have an HD-DVD player ($200), and have purchased a few discs (about $100). I made the purchases knowing it could be the losing format, but was willing to try it out for the cost. I agree, without complaint, that the thing to do is buy Blu-ray replacements for the few titles I have. It is the easiest and most economical thing to do.
Here is the kicker: One of the titles was Led Zeppelin's 'The Song Remains the Same' This title was supposed to be released in December on both formats. Come the release date, suddenly most of the retailers that were accepting preorders announced that the release was pushed back indefinitely.
It turns out a limited amount actually made it to some retailers and I was able to pick up an HD-DVD version from DVD Pacific (the only place that seemed to have any).
Now even DVD Pacific has none (of either format).
I now have a great show (video is spectacular, audio is perfect) on a dead format, but the title is no longer available on any HD format. There is no indication when it will be officially (re)released, if at all.
I guess if I was desperate enough I might try something like the article describes. The industry has left no other choice.

It's just the warping of space time making it appear to drop in a Newtonian absolute frame of reference.
