Learnings:

- Anything that needs to "store" a state must be a reg?
  => wire's can't be assigned in always blocks, yosys complains
- regs must not lead to wires? (unsure where I read that)
  - https://blog.waynejohnson.net/doku.php/verilog_wire_and_reg
  -> wires of an outer module can be connecting to an inner module.
  -> reg can be input to an inner module
  -> regs can't be outputs
- Clock on the tang9k is 27 MHz

Questions:

- Why do so many examples use always @(posedge clk or nededge rst).
  i.e., why is the clk always included?
  - "async reset" - asynchronous events might be missed, and they
    don't work well with clocked registers.
