Daniel Estevez – 10 years of blogging
- CamperBob2 1y agoOne of the all-time great in-depth technical blogs. Criminally underrated.
- tverbeure 1y agoYeah, it’s a must read if you’re interested in satellite communication and related topics.
- gus_massa 1y agoWhich is your favorite post?
- CamperBob2 1y agoNot necessarily leading-edge stuff, but the work he did on Voyager 1 decoding with GNU Radio was fascinating (e.g. https://destevez.net/2021/09/decoding-voyager-1/ https://destevez.net/2021/09/decoding-voyager-1/ ). Same with 802.11ah ( https://destevez.net/2025/01/decoding-ieee-802-11ah/ https://destevez.net/2025/01/decoding-ieee-802-11ah/ ). The fact that he puts so much care and attention into describing the methodology as well as the results makes his blog a great educational resource for GNU Radio and communications DSP in general. Estevez pretty much does for DSP what Karpathy does for ML, sans the latter's videos. I also just noticed a post on the Remez algorithm for FIR filter design, where he ran into some of the same problems with 1970s-era legacy code that I have and (unlike me) actually addressed them. That one, I'm going to have to bookmark for sure.
- gus_massa 1y agoThe first was posted 4 years ago, with many points and little discussion https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28490238 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28490238 so it may be reposted now. The second one was never posted... Both are good to be posted, but I recommend to post one and wait a month to post the other so no one get annoyed.
