How is Functional Thinking? I'm starting to write a toy SAT solver in scala and I could probably benefit from some good,non-trivial design examples

This fails to address that Stansted is far out of the city centre, while St Pancras could hardly be better positioned

I guess that implementing SATA for a small batch of board would have been cost-prohibitive. SATA isn't simple.

Old technique with "spying drone" buzzword

JS ecosystem is pretty well know for changing very fast compared to other mainstream languages. This is a fair point, NPM could implement the local cache without (hopefully) breaking anything

Because then the testing stimulus is not hard coded anymore, but generated. It's then trivial to run longer sequences, or tweak the test.

In hardware design, where reliability is key (making a chip costs multiple millions and 6 months time), there is only random testing (with seed for reproducibility), not "that bunch of case that the person testing thought of that day"

I don't need to learn how a switch work if it's not "smart".

That's what we want you to think, but the hardware is at least as much of a mess as the software

This is only tangentially related, but is there any standard advice to get git on a remote file system (ceph) to run fast with a long history?
