fridays are for demos!

If anyone's interested the kinds of stuff we do in finance...this is the best overview I can give :)

New clip to end your week! I've always been interested in the low level optimizations made inside of financial trading firms, and @[email protected] does a great job of outlining the software and hardware that goes into these systems.

We saved the best for last at #ZephyrDevSummit ! Golioth's Daniel Mangum talks all things Wasm - how, when and why you should (or shouldn’t) run Wasm on Zephyr Project. Watch the livestream: hubs.la/Q02tq7z50 #EmbeddedOSsummit #ZephyrRTOS

If you’re interested in WebAssembly on microcontrollers, I’ll be wrapping up #EmbeddedOSSummit with a talk on how, when, and why you should (or shouldn’t) run Wasm on Zephyr Project!

There will be some fun live demos with Golioth 👀

.Golioth's Sam Friedman is taking questions after his #ZephyrDevSummit presentation about Microservices for Microcontrollers. Want to learn more? Stop by the #Golioth booth today to speak with Sam, dylan.js 👨‍💻 or Daniel Mangum. Zephyr Project #EmbeddedOSSummit

Far far away from here, but Daniel Mangum is probably proud of me now I have a RISC-V soldering iron from PINE64 😂

somehow I just learned today that `xxd -i <file>` will output hex dump as a C include file.

Want to learn more? If you're at #EOSS today, stop by the Golioth booth E22 to talk to dylan.js 👨‍💻, Sam Friedman, or Daniel Mangum about the news or read about it in detail on the Golioth blog. lnkd.in/gTMgNdXZ

The story of Acorn Computers never gets old for me. May we all be so bold to think that we can also design our own chips!

Thanks to @[email protected] for relaying this history!

let’s build something great this week!

was not expecting to be building LLVM at the gate waiting area in this airport, but here we are.

Headed to #EmbeddedOSSummit and Zephyr Project Developer Summit this morning! I’ll be giving a talk on Thursday afternoon about WASM on Zephyr. Stop by the Golioth booth if you’d like to chat!

the number of GCP SKUs that I can recall on demand is reaching an alarming level.

when preparing for a conference talk, the speed at which I go from 'I don't have anything to talk about' to 'I wonder if they would give me 5x the allocated time' is alarming.

new hardware saturday.

Here's a very interesting video in which the MOS 6502 and Zilog Z80 are compared. @[email protected] also mentions his time as a teenager trying to hack into some of by BBC Micro protection code and how he later unlocked the workings of 6502 RMW ( Read/Modify/Write ) instructions.

Some old-school BBC Micro game hacking tidbits here! Kevin Edwards ( Retro Videogame development ) this is all your fault ;)

Live in 15 minutes!

Enjoyed going deep on early microprocessor architecture with @[email protected]! Make sure to check out the full clip for Matt's story on how the 5th cycle of the 6502's ROL instruction could be used to reset a hardware timer in an attempt to make decrypting games more onerous 🤯
