The published British Museum Rosetta stone is not even what I would consider a high quality scan today. In a proper scan you would be able to easily discern the carved writing just from the geometry. At 1mm faces, it's actually a prett

I agree with you that making RDMA a more accessible commodity technology is very important for "the future of compute". Properly configuring something like RoCEv2 or Infiniband is expensive and difficult. These technologies need t

Bingo bango. In truth they just need to allow actual apps to use the virtualization that’s already in the goddamn things. It’s maddening.

This is great; for your next trick, can you please figure out how to install MacOS on an iPad so that we can all finally get the dang computer we want Apple to build?

Strong agree; 7/10 is a ludicrous score for a device that takes a heat gun and a proprietary screwdriver to open. It is my opinion that iFixit is starting to turn from being actually hacker friendly into something of a mouthpiece for t

Red Pitaya has the same problem almost every other board like it has: it is completely impossible for it to transport the full firehose of data to and from the computer. Since you absolutely must decimate the data to and from the ADCs and D

I've been around this space as a hobbyist for some time. There is great hardware for capturing signals; there is great software for processing signals. But getting the two things together will fully consume 99% of any effort to build s

So use SAML for that part; education is still a big market and they have a case for delegating the responsibility of establishing and managing trust relationships to a federation provider that most b2b and b2c applications will not have. Fo

Being around longer or being widely implemented within some market segment is not a great reason to advocate for expanding its use. I could play devil's advocate for Kerberos or NIS just as easily as you can for SAML. It's fine if
