Linux Journal articles
I had a read of a few Linux Journal articles today. Easy reads that give you a high level view of what’s available:
- File Sharing on Linux Using NFS and Samba
- Combining Configurable Button Widgets With Kwin’s Shortcuts to Transform Your KDE Experience
- How to Monitor Your System with Zabbix
- Navigating the Linux Textscape using Vim and Emacs
- Locating Leviathan Files in Linux
- How to Configure Postfix Mail Server on Debian
ChatGPT policies
Today I got a note from ChatGPT today that the policies are being updated. I figured I might take some time to actually read them:
QUIC Loss Detection and Congestion Control
This came up in my feed today: QUIC Loss Detection and Congestion Control. I wish I had time to read it closely! It’s about how they re-implement the TCP bits and pieces (such as congestion control) atop UDP.
AliExpress sale
Today there was a promotion/sale on at AliExpress, so I picked up some consumables and a few natty tools. I paid the promotion price AU$63.46 for stuff on sale at AU$142.82 which normally sells for AU$326.12.
FPGA reading
Things to read to learn about FPGA programming:
- Designing Video Game Hardware in Verilog (recommended by @indigo)
FPGA options
I’m learning more about FPGAs. Haven’t actually purchased one to play with yet though.
- Adafruit ICE40 (recommended by @gwozniak)
- iCE by Lattice Semiconductor
- Papilio
- iCEBreaker
- iCEstick Evaluation Kit
- FPGA @ adafuit
- FPGA @ SparkFun
Affiliate Links
I took some time today to update the Affiliate Links page on the blog. Now there’s a table which catalogs most of the interesting equipment in my lab along with a link (or two) to where you can buy.
I’m on Patreon now
I suppose it’s a poorly kept secret that now I’m live on Patreon. My Patreon page is here: https://www.patreon.com/JohnElliotV
I would like to stress that I do my blog and my YouTube channel for love and I do *not* expect anyone to send money, so please don’t feel pressured to do so. <3
If you have any thoughts on the Patreon page or how my YouTube channel is configured I would be happy to hear from you, particularly if you have suggestions about how to improve things.
