  • It’s been pretty lackluster so far. Embedded(includes FPGA) is one of AMD’s lowest performing divisions, along with gaming. They’ve used Xilinx circuitry in Ryzen AI CPUs (XDNA), but those have been slow to catch on.

    There’s a lot of copium in the AMD_Stock sub about how Lisa is playing the long game and Xilinx will pay off over time, but for now, it’s a drag on revenue, operating margins and return on equity.

    We paid $40B+ for a company that brought in less than 1.5B last year. - AMD bagholder, avg price $140😐

    It just means the developer posted the source code of their program for others to use. There’s nothing wrong with it. Id open sourced their Doom and Quake games back in the 90’s. Valve recently open sourced Team Fortress 2.

    So you’re free to play around with the code and make changes, but if you want the full game with all the maps, you still have to buy a copy.

    Disclaimer before anyone jumps on me, that’s just two examples. There are tons of different types of open sources licenses.
