Long-shot to end all long-shots but: does anybody know anything about USB on raw Xilinx transceivers (e.g. without a PHY)? Officially it's unsupported, occasionally people say they've gotten it to work and more details on exactly how would be incredibly useful

Boosts appreciated for visibility

I have once again hit the y2k22 bug.

For the uninitiated, say you want to store a timestamp (but not seconds for some reason) and normal methods are too mainstream. Then you can encode the date as YYMMddhhmm, parse the resulting string, and store it in a 32 bit signed integer.

Except, 2201010000 is greater than 2^31, so this format no longer works as of 2022

Of course, the only software stupid enough to trigger it that I've seen is #xilinx vivado and vitis

#Tcl (also known as Tool Command Language; pronounced as either "tickle" or as an initialism) is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language.

It was made in 1988 by John Ousterhout and it was inspired mainly by #C, #Lisp, #Shell, #Awk and has served as one of the inspirations of #PowerShell and #Python due to its simplicity and elegance.
