Today on lobsters there was a link to the Descent3 Source Code. Very cool.

I just needed to make a note of this unironic statement which I read here:
The 6502 Instruction Set Database
This is great: The 6502 Instruction Set Database. It’s a database with details of opcodes for the 6502 processor. You can see the SQL and TSV.

Today I stumbled upon some vintage Dave Jones which made me happy: EEVblog #63 – Microchip PIC vs Atmel AVR. :)
Make: AVR Programming
I am reading Make: AVR Programming: Learning to Write Software for Hardware and I found this excellent video: Programming AVR Microcontrollers in C – O’Reilly Webcast available from here: Beyond the Arduino: Programming AVR Microcontrollers in C.
The author’s github page is still operational: https://github.com/hexagon5un/AVR-Programming
Their website littlehacks.org is offline but still available via archive.org: https://web.archive.org/web/20160307235812/http://littlehacks.org/
Also there’s this really cool collection of projects over here: Cornell University ECE 4760 Designing with Microcontrollers Final Projects.

I’m trying to get my house in order so I can pass myself off as respectable when I start promoting my new show In The Lab With Jay Jay in earnest.
To that end I have reviewed the look and feel of my wiki. It no longer has that black, green, and orange monospaced font vibe going on, but now uses the relatively unoffensive default theme.

I’ve also been tweaking the website for my show, including an updated about page.
The blog, the wiki, and the show also now all use my new favicon which is my take on the Hacker Emblem:
