bucket brigades were also used to read large scale sensors like a CCD camera. they are more efficient in their use of die space because you need fewer data paths; they don't need to be digital either, each bucket can be analog for "grey" scale
>Pure Silicon Demo Coding: No CPU, No Memory, Just 4k Gates
ok, but silicon is doped so it's slightly impure, and CPUs are also silicon and memory is also silicon.
you actually meant "4K gates, no clock, no synchronization, no timing" and maybe a little "not exactly sure when the output is rea... is rea... is ready"
I've heard (though cannot find any supporting references) that Devo's song "Whip It" referred to "whippets", nitrous oxide cannisters which could produce a brief but euphoric high.
Context was a stage performance (not by Devo) roughly 20 years ago, referring to late 1970s / early 1980s youth culture. The song itself was released in 1980:
glancing at that map, an interesting (to an American mostly just cuz we think we know our own geography) trivia factoid came to mind:
Q: Where in the US are you closest to Africa?
I'll explain the answer key at the bottom so you don't see them sooo readily if you want to think about it... but whatevs
an entirely different interesting factoid, the Catskill Mountains in NY State, which seem to be part of the Appalachian Range, are in fact not mountains at all. What appear to be mountains is actually erosion of a high plateau, leaving mountainous appearing hills https://static1.thetravelimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/upl... (they are however connected to the Appalachians, they just aren't mountains)
>The problem is that there is no "missing data" color
they should use "green screen green" and give you viewing glasses that fill in the colors to your own historical preference (e.g. rose colored? blood-soaked?). then if you point a finger with your "anhistorical" complaints, there will be 3 fingers pointing back at you!
