Filmmaker David Beazley of Beazknees Films has created an interesting documentary short that dives inside the creative mind of British inventor Colin Furze. Colin talks about why he enjoyscreating all sorts of new and odd inventions and how the magic of the internet has helped him out so much.

Colin Furze is a plumber by day – but in his spare time he retreats to his garage and invents all manner of weird and wonderful contraptions, like the Jet Bike and World’s Fastest Mobility Scooter. He also holds the Guinness World Record for the World’s Fastest Pram, Longest Motorbike and biggest Bonfire!

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
