'on '18, I have made it a key thing that when we get some more info that is more than we had hoped for, to use such an item to
completely sever with the past and leave it behind. An item that says there is just NO point in carrying such stuff in your head.

Consider that some events that were painful are VERY good for  QUIK. How?

just a few.

1. SPI- sensor platforms inc.- when their ip was taken out, and QUIK scrambled and built an algo team. I like that it happened now. Why?
I see parallels to the current situation of Sensory IP. I sleep better knowing they WILL not be overdependent on any single IP partner. That each and every contract will take the very real possibility of M & A into consideration. They will do in house what they can.

2. Andy Pease- "we do NOT call on Apple." I read the detailed account of Apple leading little Valencel along- seeing all the health stuff they had- with some notion of using their IP- then zippo and Apple maybe just took the best of the ideas. The lawsuit won't do Valencel much good?

Commentary-so in the GEEK writing they say...SiRi has trouble still with the high rates of voice recognition that As Alexa and Goog have. Their accuracy is lagging. Always on voice has put a crack in their future? Its great in some ways. No offence to the very loyal Apple ecosystem fans.


3. Apical- Michael Tusch's one very grt algo. It was compute intense. It was a huge success, it has been placed on BILLIONS of smartphones.
It must have really stung when that algo fell to Moores law and was placed onto the CPUs of those Billions of devices. .

It must have increased the resolve to get onto the RIGHT side of Moore's law as we are now.



So having been in business for these past 30 yrs. gives them real experience not only with eFPGA tools, but they are wise in ways start ups are NOT? They are not likely to blow it as they step from one room to the next-they will just execute and follow the technology-
