mask

Straight As can mask a lot of problems.

Instead, they mask the symptoms but only for a while.

It's not illegal to change your mac address or wear a ski mask.

As for masks being easy to fit - see almost any facemask and check for the nose strips.

Since the 500 samples per second was driven by a hardware timer interrupt, we needed that to not be masked out.

Sleeps would mask the symptoms, yes, but would never actually solve a deadlock, the program would just do nothing for a longer period of time.

This is almost too good:"As Swartz entered the wiring closet, he held his bicycle helmet like a mask to shield his face, looking through ventilation holes in the helmet.

If you could effectively 'decompile' the resulting silicon and verify it against your netlist, that would catch mask errors.

The silicon analysis is really cutting edge stuff, and I think it would be useful for chip designers in verifying their masks are accurate too.

So with every release of the OS, I had the job of locating all the places that the interrupt masking took place in the OS and changing the instruction so that it wouldn't mask the timer interrupt.

Funny, I consider the ostentatious parading of excessive and spurious pseudo-sophistication as a mark of dishonesty, the inability to feel...the mask of cruelty.

This seems to me a bit like saying we could never have a flat tablet computer because its impossible to have a perfectly flat crt that's thin enough what with the magnetic yoke, the electron beam, shadow mask etc."Breakthrough" is used much too often these days.

If we find a hardware bug in real silicon, at best, we catch it the moment we get the first chip back, and it means that we have a multiple month delay as we fix it and tape out a new chip, not to mention the cost of throwing away all of the partially fabbed chips we've got, plus the multiple million dollar cost of a new mask set.
