Building systems to optimize chips.

StrongARM Latch <=> Binary Option Black-Scholes

Both have:
- A strike: V_in = 0 for the latch, S = K for the option - A price: the probability of finishing on the high side of the strike, which is a Gaussian CDF of moneyness in both cases
- An uncertainty parameter that controls how sharp that CDF is: σ√(T−t) for BS, input-referred noise σ_n for the latch
- Greeks: sensitivities that diverge at the strike as the uncertainty shrinks

BS binary call:  price = Φ( ln(S/K) / (σ√(T−t)) ) StrongARM latch: price = Φ(  V_in /  σ_n  )

@united Internet has not worked on a single flight I have been on since December.

When I go to watch a movie I get ads that you have Starlink...

Did @realGeorgeHotz LinkedIn get banned?

The foundation model labs can totally make a new form of money if they let people send tokens between accounts.

Are you interested in ASIC tools and pushing the boundaries of chip design and implementation? Partcl and Hudson River Trading are launching a new competition to build the next generation of macro placement algorithms.

By the end of 2026, I predict token spend will be greater than engineering salaries at early stage startups.

@blip_tm Wanna go halves?

[Will @Willschips]

@Microsoft GCP and AWS actually respond in a timely manner and the auth works.

[Will @Willschips]

@Microsoft

Azure is a terrible product and your reps respond too slowly. Microsoft auth never works and your people are sleeping during the workday.

I am never going to use Azure ever again.

[Will @Willschips]

The EDA tool is as much a part of the design as the RTL and architecture.

[Will @Willschips]

Why is every Microsoft product unusable??!?!

The auth is so bad and confusing!!

Tourists think that EE = manually routing PCB

@beaversteever I know. Its so annoying. Haha
