A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Look, if you search up FPGA issues on the internet, the best you get is forum posts literally 10 years old with one or no replys. However, I went on reddit and posted a hypothetical issue with all of my relevant information, and one day later the guy literally posted the exact chapter in the (hidden) User Guide that was relevant. The other 10 comments had other platform solutions that all had uses.
This is an engineering discipline with less stackoverflow questions than the Discord API (20305 vs 6000+6000). And because HDLs are cool like that, they literally have parts of the programming language that will make it unable to work in real life designs, so half of the answers will screw you. The subreddit understands this and will break down every little gotcha in detail because there is no chance in hell you will find it elsewhere.
