@Tathar Okay, since we don't know verilog and remember little of vhdl (it was like six years ago and we haven't used it since), i'll just explain like this

say you have some sort of code that says "for each input x1 through x5, do this to it and output the result to outputs y1 through y5", so each yn is a function of xn only

if you messed up and said "for each input x1 through x5, do this to it and output the result to output y1", then you'd have y1 simultaneously driven by five circuits

@LexYeen The difference between private property and personal property is not very well explained. we didn't understand how socialism would work at all before having that clearly explained to us like, less than five years ago

@Tathar It looks to me like you're using a generate statement or something along those lines (is this verilog or vhdl? we only know vhdl) and not properly instancing all the pins, so it's generating two things but connecting them to the same output instead of different outputs

Today's thoughts, character design, lewd implied 

Involuntary shapeshifter who goes around as whatever shape most recently caught their eye... except they tend to watch a lot of weird porn so they end up hypersexualized and multi a lot

Since meeting the latios from yesterday, they've been seen wearing a shape identical to his (with small modifications whenever they pass through their mind) quite frequently.... they're trying to work up the courage to ask him out on a date, but haven't yet

@Tathar Ooh, fun, I remember doing that! How's it going?

everyone around us does programming, there are so few people we can talk hardware with

re: warhammer 40k joke re: dead monarchy 

@LexYeen what does this mean?

we are outsourcing the decision, just to see what happens: what should we do for dinner tonight

@MinkOfTheEnd That's just our suggestion of course! Others may haveother requests

@MinkOfTheEnd I would say describing it to someone who's asking what you drew. Don't go into too much detail unless someone asks

Today's thoughts, pokemon character design 

Two-headed, four-armed latios guy with well-groomed facial hair and ridiculously large boobs (three of them)

Uses psychic power to hold his boobs up, because otherwise he'd have immense back pain

Two legs? Or perhaps a naga? Unsure. Not three legs or taur; he definitely has a slim waistline.

Works at a fancy restaurant (and is a respected decision maker; he'd probably be one of the owners if it weren't a worker-owned cooperative), usually as wait staff. He can cook too, but isn't as good as others who work there so he only does when filling in for people

Gender and presentation are very firmly male, but his clothing can be basically anything. He usually wears a formal suit top and matching floor-length skirt to work. He also looks good in a dress and knows it.

He might be part haunter. Sometimes his necks, thighs, and upper arms are just not there, heads and forearms and legs floating instead.

@MinkOfTheEnd The usual suggestion is to write what you would say to explain it to someone over the phone

some creative exercise is nice. we haven't done much creative stuff in a while, other than circuit board layouts

@trysdyn @socks Also worth noting that a large part of graphical quality is quality assets and code for dealing with them well. Very, very few games on much newer hardware look as good as Final Fantasy XIII on the xbox 360, for instance.
