I can finally talk about what I did during the last year! In collaboration with @cfbolz we developed a Verilog simulator called verijit based on meta-tracing just in time compilers. The results are pretty crazy: verijit is up to 100x faster than verilator for simulating processors.

You can follow us on Mastodon @verijit

We have a neat mandelbrot demo below:

Anyone know what circuit board this easter egg is from, and who made it? I'm trying to find a source to attribute.

Not the quote itself, I know that's from System Shock. I mean the board that had this printed on it. Looking at reverse image search, it's one of those meme images that's been around for ever and has gone through the social media human centipede so many times that the source is just "idk internet engagement farming bots".

I'm hoping the six degrees of separation thing works out, and someone recognizes the board and can tell me who to credit.

EDIT: solved in thread! It's an ACA1221ec accelerator card for the Amiga 1200, https://wiki.icomp.de/wiki/ACA1221ec and board pic at https://www.ppa.pl/graffiti/obrazek/4095/look-at-you-hacker . Thank you fedi!

Side note, if you want to see how common of a pattern this is, and I can't believe I didn't think of this earlier, go search Github.com for 'deleteduser.com', lots of examples of delete functions from apps there that do this type of thing.

Couple of new additions today to the internet dumpster:

- Some internal system at one of the worlds largest and most recognizable consumer electronics manufacturer is telling deleteduser.com all about approved purchase orders, including direct links to the orders, and the names of all the people who are involved.

- More gyms, very common.

- Some platform used to offer temporary shifts to healthcare workers asked a nurse at deleteduser.com if they were available to urgently cover a shift at a South African healthcare facility.

The delusion and disconnect between Silicon Valley and the real world will persist until the venture capital runway—or the dangerous debt financing—runs out. At which point, demand will be revealed as a fraction of the desire to build supply.

Nobody. Wants. This.

You can make people use tools they despise, but you do so at the cost of productivity and employee turnover. Say it with me: Gen AI is a loser.

When people ask me about "AI" policy, I like to point out that there is policy being made at many different levels and even if our national government is currently a shitshow, local action really matters, like zoning against data centers and "AI" policy in schools.

New metric shows renewables are 53% cheaper than nuclear power

A new metric for assessing total system costs puts a least-cost mix of offshore wind and solar at about €46 ($54.20)/MWh in a future climate-neutral energy system for Denmark. Researchers tell pv magazine that figure is less than half the equivalent cost of nuclear under the same conditions.

I buy peppermint tea from Aldi. It's not very convenient because every single individual tea bag is wrapped in paper for some reason but I can at least just go and buy them from a shop with cash normally. At least until 2024, when they started wrapping each? individual?? teabag???? in plastic??????? so of course I stopped buying my teabags there because, well, OBVIOUSLY I stopped, wew lad yikes. I sent Aldi an email saying hey yo I'm not buying your weird plastic-wrapped teabags, email me when you come to your senses, they emailed back almost immediately saying they were a very sustainable company actually and you can put the plastic in the recycling and do not reply to this email.

So I started getting Celestial Seasonings tea bags which just come in a cardboard box lined with wax paper. I bought a bunch of boxes off the evil monster bastard empire amazon. Then I went grumble grumble well I suppose I should stop buying shit from amazon as well, they're so convenient why can't they just be good, so I would occasionally grab a box out of Giant Eagle, which is a real American grocery chain that actually exists and has that name and this is your daily reminder that it's impossible to satirize Americans.

Anyway spouse has a sore throat and needs much pep T so yesterday I was gonna go to the whiskey shop for whiskey and Aldi for milk and also heck we're out of mintyhot so I went up to Giant Eagle and as I was walking up to the door a guy walked in with a handgun and one of those belts with all bullets around it straight past the bouncer bold as brass and I turned right around and went nah fuck that I'll go to Aldi.

Defeated at amazon by their evil-capitalism shittiness and defeated at giant eagle by their guns-yay shittiness I returned to Aldi to embrace their that's-a-lot-of-plastic-even-for-americans shittiness and I shamefully bought a box of peppermint-plastic tea.

And when I opened it this morning the teabags were still individually wrapped, but in paper like they were before. So like, still a pain in the arse and a pointless waste, but apparently while I wasn't buying their plastic-wrapped teabags they stopped wrapping them in plastic. And never bothered to email me back and say hey Dan we did what you asked, come back and give us money.

You don't expect buying teabags to have fucking three acts and a betrayal and a twist and a redemption arc but here we are I suppose
