#22: Why don't you keep your mouth shut as well? I highly doubt that calling someone an asshole just for a blog entry is respectful. It would be great if Anand decides to stop doing weblogs esp. when people like you are calling him names just because he hasn't had the time to blog. His life is much busier that yours or mine. And don't forget that he has been working on this site for 7 years, which is a long time. You probably can't even work 8 hours a day without getting tired and Anand receives conference calls, review requests at all times of the day.
Just calm down. Once again, It would be really sweet if Anand stops his blog and all your morons die because of it. So much fun and it would get rid of some problems in this world...
Lol...Anand probably finally cracked under the pressure...completely gave up tech...moved to Sedona, AZ....is living in a teepee...and probably painting pictures with his own feces....poor guy ;-)
Anand come back, you haven't blogged in quite a few days! Or at least promise that when school is over you will tend to this blog often, I for one enjoy it very much.
yea i'm looking at long-term benefits here with reduced hardware costs. I know I sure do love patching IIS every 3 days...
"thousands upon thousands"? come on now. i've written a good number of content management systems and, while I'm not downplaying anything that has gone on here, quite honestly they aren't *that* complicated.
At least with PHP (or even perl if you wanted), you aren't locked into one platform.
not trying to start a war here, just offering my opinions.
I'm at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario in computer engineering. Our program included an in-depth hardware design course.
The lab component that course involved building an 8-bit processor using Quartus and VHDL. The lab section of the course used to be done in 4th year, but due to schedualing it has been moved to 3rd year without much change.
#7: AnandTech already runs on Windows servers if you couldn't tell. If would take lots of man power to convert thousands upon thousands of ASP technologies and pages to php. I don't think its possible now.
Take a look again at some of the programs across Canada. From what I've seen, almost all of the major universities in Canada offer a major design project in your final year. I just completed mine, and we had to designed a full fledged 5 stage CPU.
why are you guys switching .NET? have you looked at possibly using PHP/Apache/creative-caching to serve up pages? probably would reduce your server requirements quite a bit from the resource hungry IIS/CF/.NET setup you are currently running. (see shacknews.com, they serve up tons of PHP/cached-html pages with only two servers)
If they had an ISO for travel cups that covered drink cans, I would guess it would be done already. But with QuikTrip and Raceway having drink wars, it will probably never happen. ;)
I think the Elise has it solved. It probably does not have a cup holder.
I would delay the raptor article just to anonymously spite you (-:
Also, you said the end is coming not quickly enough...i am a senior elec/comp engr major in texas and also working on my senior design project. I find that the end is coming all too quickly...i could use a few extra weeks. Glad to hear things are turning out for you...good luck with the rest.
I'm in computer systems engineering at Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I'm only in first year, and I would like to pursue the hardware stream in my upper year. Unfortunately I don't think many universities in Canada offer courses as in depth or related to the hardware design side of things as the class you're describing.
Good luck on your exams and final compiler project!

Oh, I forgot to mention, the processor design lab is separate from the 4th year design project that we do.Anonymous - Friday, April 30, 2004 - link

Anonymous #1 has Anand envy. Similar to penis envy.Oh, and keep up the good work Anand, this site is absolutely invaluable.

As far as the high G cup holder is concerned, they should make one based on a microphone shockmount: http://www.sweetwater.com/images/items/EA1MT-large...hmm_not_sure - Thursday, April 29, 2004 - link
