I’m interested in FGPA technology and today via HN: Awesome Lattice FPGA boards.

This turned up on HN today: Tomu, a tiny ARM microprocessor which fits in your USB port.

Today I discovered the UN Codes for Trade. It includes info about countries and locations, currency, etc.

This via HN today, various types of Software Development Waste.

This popped up on HN today, looks handy: The Connection Strings Reference. Well, I thought it might be handy, but it doesn’t seem to support PHP PDO.
