We switched the whole line to Efinix. One disadvantage though: They don’t supply a simulator.

They are afraid of getting infected? In “Measles Parties are Natural Immunisation” country? Or do they acknowledge that they are not up to par for serious medical issues?


The free simulator.


So make it 0.1%. Close enough to make people happy, but not zero to appease the f-ed up software.


Xilinx has turned asshole against us, because their reseller misreported numbers. Our boss was fuming after the conference and told me to find another vendor.
We are now using Efinix chips and their forum and direct support is wonderful. I had discussions with their tool developers about UI design decisions that actually led to improvements. Imagine trying to get something like that done with Xilinx - they have grown too big to care unless you buy millions of chips.


Handing this event to Mexico, USA and Canada was a stupid idea in the first order.
When the World Cup is done in a European country, you can travel from location to location by train in a few hours, less than half a day. You can book your hotel somewhere independent of the game location, and move to all the games from there and be back for the night.
In the current event, you basically have to book a hotel in the games’ location, have to fly there, and usually rent a car there.


Dealing with this kind of shit was one of the reasons we completely dropped xilinx. Apart from that they were very unhelpful and unfriendly.


This was not about device access, that’s why I considered interesting. No, I don’t have links to everything I have read in my life… IIRC it was in a discussion on Reddit, which I don’t frequent anymore.


Wow. Not what I expected in the Android world.


I would not limit it to him.


A number of WhatsApp conversations unexpectedly appearing in courts.


Yes, it is spreads by contacts and liquids. Now imagine someone infected standing behind you in a stadion and shouting and screaming for their team. That little spittle hitting your neck can suffice to transfer Ebola…


Given the low hotel booking numbers, this might actually happen.


And can you review the source for this APK?


That’s another reason. Hosting a world cup in an European country where you can easily reach all game locations within a few hours by train or car is different than one where you have to fly a few hours to get to the next game.


I’d be more afraid of ICE concentration camps. But if an Ebola infected person would attend this event, it would get interesting fast.


It is not. They sold the tickets, mostly to first level skalpers, so they are good and don’t need any more advertising.


Well anything beyond ticket sales is still game.


They probably have sold all tickets to first-level skalpers (and maybe to a handful of real fans) long ago, so why waste money on advertizing?
