Nice. A friend of mine built one with ball bearings: https://youtu.be/40DkJ9vt5CI?si=2TupxpdiZkEg3nVB

Very binary, much wow.
I write assembly for test cases and early setup code. I read far more assembly than I write.
I’m not sure if that is the op or Lemmy cropping stuff. I’ve seen similar when I’ve tried to post stuff.
I don’t think Kamikaze’s came about until much later in the war. I’m sure a few heavily damaged planes went down taking targets with them though.
5·9 months agoHmm don’t know why the image gets clipped. Is today a Mastodon or Lemmy issue?
I have not, but I will now thanks.
I’m looking at Embassy too for a Pico project and combining it with a nostd mqtt implementation. However I need to understand Futures and if/how they relate to the async paradigm.
13·9 months agoThe ISA may be open but I’m pretty sure the microarchitecture will be totally proprietary. Even with a kick ass microarchitecture they may still struggle if they can’t use the latest process nodes to actually manufacture the chips.
Having said that I suspect the main challenge RISCV is going to face is the software ecosystem. That stuff can take a decade to build and requires a degrees of cooperation between all the companies building chips.
This seems like an excellent idea and hopefully provides a model for other media outlets to follow.
Most open source developers don’t want to be messing about with non-profit admin tasks. This is why umbrella organisations like the Software Freedom Conservancy exist.
I wasn’t personally using C++, I was using relatively modern C which has had an homegrown object system added to it.
It looks like a lot of mappings need adding as most people come up as unknown:
EDIT updated with newer mappings.

Sorry yes this was GCC, I can do the same for the rust repo if you want.
The gitdm scripts come from LWN who do a regular “who writes the kernel” report but can work on any git repo.
You can be fairly certain that patches coming from a corporate domain are paid for their time. You can add extra metadata to track people who use personal or org addresses if they confirm it’s a paid gig. The project I work on most is about 75% paid contributors with hobbyists and academics making up the rest. The good unpaid contributors can often get hired if they want to be.
I added gitdm stats awhile back although the mappings could certainly do with some clean-up. For the last year of activity the stats are:

That’s a hell of an assumption. I know a number of Arm GCC and LLVM hackers who are all employed by various companies including Arm themselves. It’s in chip designers/manufacturers interest to have good GCC support for their architecture.
Is this what people who haven’t been introduced to #magit use?
5·1 year agoOr where commanders stand in tanks.
There is a very large corpus of FLOSS software out there serving everything from individual itches to whole industries. Any project that is important to someone’s bottom line is likely to have paid developers working on it but often alongside hobbyists.
The project I predominately work on is about 90% paid developers but from lots of different companies and organisations. Practically though the developers don’t care about the affiliation of the other developers they work with but the ideas and patches they bring to the project.
