minus-square@Gradually_AdjustinglinkEnglish84•1 year agoThe tech is apparently so outdated that it’s next to worthless. What’s the $5m for? Funeral arrangements?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish22•1 year agoDoubt that. It’s probably the value of the land and building.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•1 year agoMight as well sell it on storage wars. Open the office door, let people take a peak, then they essentially gamble as to whether there’s anything of value and bid on it.

minus-square@TreczokslinkEnglish6•1 year agoThey design the chips and the software needed to work with it. They write the code in a HDL (Hardware Definition Language) and test them in simulation runs, and when everything works, they synthesize the chips’ masks from it.

Wait, then what DO they do?
