One example is that Netflix launched it’s streaming service in 2007, just at the point when the cost of streaming a movie over the network (which was dropping fast) became less than the cost of shipping a DVD. You need to be able to innovate fast enough to pivot or reinvent your business model and leverage the change.

The goal is to produce a low-energy hardware classifier for embedded applications doing local processing of sensor data. Race logic has four primary operations that are easy to implement in hardware: MAX, MIN, ADD-CONSTANT, and INHIBIT. One efficient way of doing that in analog hardware is the use of current-starved inverters.
