OK I was gonna post a picture of Edith Prickley and be like "Edith Prickley jumpscare" but when sourcing photos I found something better: she has a page on the Heroes wiki (a wiki for heroes as a concept, not the TV show) in the "Live Action Heroes" category https://hero.fandom.com/wiki/Edith_Prickley

Attachments:

• Screencap of Edith Prickley's page on the Heroes wiki. It has a summary of her role on SCTV and a picture of Andrea Martin as Edith Prickley with her trademark leopard print clothing and rhinestone cat-eye glasses. The page is filed under the categories "Female", "Live Action Heroes" and "Comic Relief"

I would genuinely be interested to see the results of an objective, data-backed study on whether TypeScript actually saves as much time as it costs.

I like it, but holy shit I waste so much time just trying to make it shut the fuck up for literally zero actual benefit.

"Carbon Aware Computing: Next Green Breakthrough or New Greenwashing?"

https://hackernoon.com/carbon-aware-computing-next-green-breakthrough-or-new-greenwashing

My contribution to this article was the focus on demand for compute. I made to models showing that the only way to get significant reductions in emissions is by demand reduction, not by moving workloads in time or space.

You can play with these models here: https://codeberg.org/wimvanderbauwhede/low-carbon-computing/src/branch/master/Low-Carbon-Computing/computing-emissions-scenarios-v2.ods or

In loving memory of the Xilinx CoolRunner-II CPLD family (2002-2024). They had a long run but were the last major product term CPLD family on the market and the time finally came for them to go EOL.

These parts will always be a bit special to me because they were the first programmable logic family I did bitstream RE work on, as well as my first major gate-level silicon RE project.

As a tribute, here's a never-before-seen image of the XC2C384 (second largest device in the family), made on UMC 180nm like the others.

There's five outer power rings. Likely VCCINT, VCCAUX, GND, VCCO, and maybe something else? The second ring in from the outside looks to be VCCO (since it's broken at IO bank boundaries).

Center of the device is boot flash and global config, then above/below are two tiles of 2x3 function blocks for a total of 24 FBs, each with 16 macrocells. Global interconnect runs vertically down the center of the device.
