I may be confused as to what you mean by GUI in this context. If you are talking about a data exploration GUI... many, many scientists and physical science engineers use Jupyter/JupyterLab as a frontend for data exploration. This large

I'm not sure if you know, but canbus is used all over the place, even in aviation. The main selling point is simplicity of wiring and circuitry, as well as the fact that many lower end / cheap microcontrollers have it built in. Et

Its funny to me that they are able to produce cool R&D stuff like this, but they chose to go all in on the metaverse.

Funny enough, they don't need to truck anything in, since they are right next to a canal, but also have significant water infrastructure that was built to support the site. Also, its in a water district, where we have really done a gre

Absolutely. where the TSMC plant is going there are several things that make it perfect for a fab (I'm a little biased, since I drive by it quite frequently): - Phoenix is in located inside a water district, meaning there are many rest

SiFive is pretty nice, they have a very attractive offering and will probably make the transition much easier for folks who are on ARM offerings. IMHO the biggest issue right now with ARM is the uncertainty surrounding it, their Chinese sub

I really like Pine64, this is really nice to see! The coolest part IMHO is they are including an PCIe x1 slot, right on the board. I feel like RISC V has really started to pick up momentum over the last year or two, which is awesome to see.

They are too busy trying to get people to use the metaverse and dig deeper to get out of the absurd hole they have found themselves in. I imagine that the senior leadership probably hasn’t even noticed the sucking chest wound twitter has.

If they don't change the way they make decisions, its only a slight delay... not a Win. A win would be a commitment to never do this again (ideally), or put in something that binds them to provide <x> amount of notice.
