@pcbwayofficial.bsky.social is a great service. that fact that i can click around in @kicad.org, just press a button and have this turn up in the mail is just magic.

awesome talk! some great discussion on what it means to do research with an LLM www.youtube.com/watch?v=svl_...

If you're headed to #electronica, come check out the edge lab LIVE! events on Wed 11/11. I'll be hosting a workshop (reinforcement learning for #robotics) and evening interviews/demos. Use the code GUEST-SHAWN for free admission (first 50). #embedded #electronics Links ⬇️

running a cycle accurate fpga emulation of the amiga paula audio chip in eurorack. ( with some extensions for sampling and different modulation ) #eurorack #tiliqua www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPUj... www.matpalm.com/blog/paula_t...

At Imagine Innovators, we just announced our Developer Plan, offering expanded access to Edge Impulse’s powerful tools, completely free! Get GPU training, longer runtimes, more projects, and production-ready licensing, all at zero cost. Details: www.edgeimpulse.com/blog/introdu...

have moved mixing out of the rack to the model1. such a great performance focussed mixer! #improv #techno

It's about time I updated my recommended #FPGA links. Send me a suggestion this #FPGAFriday. 😊 projectf.io/recommended-...

i wish this was always an option...

still "finding" ( i.e. stepping on ) screws from the great M3 drawer spill of Sept '24

I'll take "n^2 - n cursed images" for $1000, Alec

Great interview with @jascha.sohldickstein.com about diffusion models! This is the first in a series: similar interviews with Yang Song and yours truly will follow soon. (One of these is not like the others -- both of them basically invented the field, and I occasionally write a blog post 🥲)

Making LLMs run efficiently can feel scary, but scaling isn’t magic, it’s math! We wanted to demystify the “systems view” of LLMs and wrote a little textbook called “How To Scale Your Model” which we’re releasing today. 1/n

"In what part of the world do you currently live?" lol

ooffff! the "DeepSeek-V3 Technical Report" is info dense! arxiv.org/abs/2412.19437

still my fav "at doom's gate" cover! ( i'm probably 1K of those 2M views ) www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZG1...

this looks like it's going to be a good read! www.amazon.com/AI-Robotics-...

went camping in an area with lots of eucalyptus and was surrounded by koalas! so cute!

my largest category of splurge spend for last month was "bandcamp" :D #winning

and here i am trying to debug why param_set((2,3,16), seed=1) vs param_set((2,3,16), seed=2) isn't working... ::/

by a lot of measures this was a completely irrational purchase, but, you know what i like it! it's ok to be irrational some times.

started learning "Amaranth HDL" this morning. my prior FPGA neural net stuff was verilog but switching to amaranth since the match the gateware on a device i'm targetting. as someone with a python background it's 1e6 times nicer than verilog!!

this board looks really fun! "a small, low cost board with the Raspberry Pi Pico processor (RP2040) and a Lattice Semiconductor iCE40UP5K FPGA" pico-ice.tinyvision.ai

"Newton Losses: Using Curvature Information for Learning with Differentiable Algorithms". interesting approach using 2nd order info to avoid the exploding/vanishing gradients that come from non differentiable relaxations.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aFP...

still the best tech speech ever. "whatever path you're on, i advocate for long, hard work." so, so true. knowledge & skills do not just pop into our heads, we have to push and shove and jam it in ourselves. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOZn...

i always have this weird compulsion to move back to seattle. no idea why, given how bad the weather was lol

Today STMicroelectronics @ST_World announced the incredible new STM32N6, a powerhouse microcontroller with built-in neural processing that achieves 600x performance over current high-end STM32 MCUs — and offers native Edge Impulse support. Press release: www.businesswire.com/news/home/20...

my 2025 goal is to play a hardware only improv techno set in a full club have played a few times in smaller settings around friends but hearing one of my tracks recently on a proper club PA has really inspired me! dithernet.bandcamp.com/album/chapte...

"the new iris dataset" i'd almost forgotten about this!

the dog always waits. the gate in spring is shaded. she will run like hell. #haiku

i can't repost this hard enough...

keras3 vmapped jax models to tflite via orbax matpalm.com/blog/keras3_...

stuck a jax laptop sticker up in a nightclub bathroom friday night. hoping some spaced out dev has a 3am WTF moment...
