Biggest pet peeve of FPGA toolchains 2 by vWijdaan | 0 comments on Hacker News. I’m interested - what’s everyone’s most hated features of AMD/Intel FPGA toolchains?

AMA – "Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within", milestone in CGI, is 25 years old 4 by kaveh808 | 2 comments on Hacker News. It might be fun to reflect on the creation of [0] 25 years ago.
