And yes, I am going to keep shitting on Ezra Klein until one of us is dead, and depending on fate and cosmology, probably after that. It’s Ezra’s obligation to work to find common ground with me.

Before you come for me with your pitchforks:

Dependency Injection? Good!

Dependency Injection Frameworks, however, always seem to make the same awful tradeoffs that mean you're left debugging some surprising/unexpected/nondeterministic behavior at runtime that you could have just specified explicitly at compile-time.

Starmer’s AI gamble risks Labour’s future

chriswere.wales/posts/starmer’s-ai-gamble-risks-labour’s-future.html

Labour is continuing to punch itself in the face over its approach to artificial intelligence. The party has abandoned both its climate pledges and its commitment to public safety as Prime Minister Keir Starmer stupidly embraces the tech industry’s AI…

Four years ago, SSR was started to make the great highway permanently car-free. Now, sunset dunes is one of SF's most popular parks. Like the embarcadero and central freeway removals, there may be more fights ahead, but we're not going back.

The recall shows a few things:
-Reactionary politics is inherently unsustainable; the recall-loving, pro-car base that engardio relied on to win in '22 immediately turned on him the minute he did his only visionary act
-Initial data indicates the recall—despite getting some prog engagement—was driven by conservative voters who refuse to acknowledge we live in a city and deny our climate emergency
-More D4 voters voted yes on prop K than yes on recall. This vote was not a referendum on the park

There is no meaningful difference between Charlie Kirk and Charlie Manson. Neither of them killed people themselves. Both of them had targets they wanted dead.

There are two ways you can consume this: “Obama is a weakling who is tacitly endorsing Charlie Kirk because he’s not using the language and tone I would,” or “a professional communicator is making a point, I may not be the audience, and his primary aim may not be my personal emotional needs.”

While I was out, my colleagues finally root-caused and fixed a nasty low-probability bug causing crashes on a specific Hubris-based machine.

It's an exciting consequence of our firmware being weird along three axes, simultaneously:

1. We use privileged/unprivileged mode on the Cortex-M7 (most systems don't, or use unprivileged only very cursorily)

2. We use the MPU to effect component memory isolation.

3. We use the STM32H7 FMC to access expansion peripherals on an FPGA through a parallel bus.

tl;dr: ST's default memory mapping for the FMC, combined with the ARMv7-M default memory attribute map, combined with our decision to have the kernel bypass the MPU (thereby using that default memory map), _combined with_ the M7's access speculation behavior to "normal" memory... meant that we'd occasionally get spurious accesses into the FPGA that would take out the system, despite having no code able to actually _do_ that.

This deserves a blog post but you can kinda reconstruct the details by reading the issue thread backwards: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/hubris/issues/2198

Things haven't started too well in Windsor, have they? 😂

After a giant image of Epstein and 47 was laid out on the lawn, and another projected onto a tower at the castle, activists disrupted a Republicans Overseas event celebrating the start of the state visit at Windsor last night.

Dr. Marvin Dunn, whom I've posted about before, is an extremely brave #Florida professor of Black history. He's one of the heroes of the resistance that shut down #AlligatorAuschwitz. He is completely against violence, but also completely against bullcrap.

He says: "True, I don't usually cuss but this shit has gotten serious! So, now you can get fired for saying something hateful about a racist who said George Floyd was a "scumbag" and he was glad Floyd was dead? You know what?..."

When (Google) X moved into our new digs in 2015, I suggested naming the conference rooms after dead products to keep us humble: Newton, Edsel, etc. This did not go over well. (They were eventually named after fictional robots, which... honestly seems like a far more biting commentary on Google X's output.)

At Oxide I've got my choice of dead computer company mugs each morning, and guess what our naming scheme for our conference rooms is....

(Oh I made that sign out of walnut and oak)

Anyway, culture fit could be much worse

Kash Patel—the Director of the FBI—testified in front of Congress today that he had no idea who Dylann Roof was.

To clarify: in June 2015, Roof, a white supremacist and Neo-Nazi, entered a church in Charleston, South Carolina, and gunned down nine Black people *after they invited him to take part in their Bible study group.*

You’re now more informed than the director of the FBI.

Remembering is an act of rebellion.
