lkcl | programmerjake, rrright. i finally recognise what happened with SwizzledSimdValue. it's an Asperger's thing, which, luckily i have had happen so many times to me that i do in fact recognise what has happened (retrospectively) | 00:32 |
---|---|---|
lkcl | basically, you came up with something that was "so complete" and solved *so many* things that it overwhelmed your ability to explain them all. | 00:33 |
lkcl | does that sound about right? | 00:33 |
lkcl | eeeeventually - after about a *week* of discussions - something came up that demonstrated and explained why you'd designed it | 00:34 |
lkcl | but, you couldn't explain it at the time, because it was only one of *so many* issues that were being "solved" | 00:35 |
lkcl | if that happens again (and it almost certainly will), please please say so. | 00:35 |
lkcl | this is for QA and planning reasons, ok? | 00:35 |
lkcl | i've created https://bugs.libre-soc.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732 | 00:35 |
lkcl | and i will fill in additional blocker tasks which will need to be completed in full, first, before #732 can proceed | 00:36 |
*** A_Dragon is now known as Awoobis | 10:12 | |
lkcl | ouaff SimdSignal Slice is frickin involved. first time ever that SimdSignal will have to adapt to fixed width elements rather than fixed width overall (total) size | 13:09 |
lkcl | unnfortunately that propagates *right* the way through the entire damn thing https://libre-soc.org/3d_gpu/architecture/dynamic_simd/slice/ | 13:10 |
lkcl | programmerjake, when you're awake, https://bugs.libre-soc.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734 | 15:32 |
lkcl | we need to shelve Slice for now until (to-be-renamed) ElwidPartType is operational and in use | 15:33 |
lkcl | i've put in a stack of notes | 15:33 |
lkcl | i haven't implemented them, deliberately, so that *both* of us get a "feel" for how this all hangs together | 15:33 |
lkcl | this is so damn crucial to the entire project that the last thing we need is only one of us knowing all of the pieces | 15:34 |
lkcl | we *both* need to know exactly what the hell is going on | 15:34 |
lkcl | actually, if you're also understanding, cesar, that would be good too | 15:34 |
lkcl | Veera[m], kylel, sorry, i am kinda focussing on SimdSignal at the moment as you can see. can i leave it with you both to sync up (irc, list, bugreport) | 15:36 |
kylel | lkcl, will do...I know you are super busy. nice work, always a great feeling when a breakthrough pans out | 15:50 |
Veera[m] | lkcl: Can you run the symbiflow-install script and get status so that we can close the BUG: 654. Please read the bugzilla page for updates I have made. | 23:30 |
