I have an ET-3400 on the shelf behind me! I was just playing with it the other day. After watching Jason Turner's CppCon talk on writing an i386 to 6502 assembly translator [1][2], I started working on a fork that would target the 680

About 10 years ago, I met Al Alcorn at an event. Prior to that, I had studied the original pong schematics in school as part of an interesting challenge in a digital design course, where the goal was to figure out what the schematic did, wi

I deal with this every day, because we only notarize our electron app in CI if we're building the master branch or an RC branch. I don't see it mentioned in the article, but what gets me every time is that the "right-click&qu

Absolutely. Data corruption from VIA based host controllers was probably the worst issue we've seen, and the USB 3.0 ASMedia host controllers are probably the worst now that VIA was able to solve their issue with a driver update. Most

We've done a similar analysis of USB 3.0 host controllers and the state of their drivers cross-platform. It's amazing how bad the state of USB 3.0 is, even 5 years after devices started shipping. Even the latest Intel host control

Instead, I want to build a tool that constantly scans your plate number for tickets and auto-pays them as soon as they show up to avoid late fees. ...Because I deserved every ticket I've ever received.

Looks awesome! I would love real time updates of counterfeit products as they are posted to ebay, etc - especially in all regions/locales. We automated the process of sending the take down notice once a listing was identified, but we&#

Interesting perspective - we deploy our QT app on Linux, osx and Windows, but I find that the best experience has been on Windows. (we statically link QT and boost, which may cause more headaches than the default dynamic linking). Specifica

This almost feels like legal cover more than anything else. At least they "tried" to protect the music files from easy duplication & piracy. I wonder if circumvention of XOR is illegal under the DMCA. It feels just about effec

I would argue that analog FM radio has a pretty bad user experience, and I completely understand a manufacturer not including it because of that. The audio quality is usually poor, it's location and environment sensitive, and the syste

I would have guessed closer to the world's GDP, maybe a few orders of magnitude more.

Then what happened? Did he get his stuff back? Did the police make an arrest? The cynic in me assumes that the police just ignored the lead, and no justice was served. The company's blog has updates, but still no resolution: http:&#x2

I really wish iFixit would do a formal root cause analysis every so often. As an electrical engineer running a small manufacturing operation, I'm always very interested in the failure rates and root causes that much higher volume produ

fascinating. I assume that was the first kinect. Was the vision processing separated from the USB interface in different chips? Sounds like a fun project.

2030s? Why wait 5-15 years after SpaceX gets there? I'm guessing it will be a little awkward when they try to plant the flag on Elon's lawn. side note, you can get SpaceX flags here: http://shop.spacex.com/accesso

This is a fundamental in FPGAs. The mode where the bit is unstable is called metastability. Most FPGA tools can automatically infer gray code for state machine states, and pretty much all cross clock domain FIFOs will use grey code to indic

keep it, with the intention of using it as a development platform for a robot or something, but then never end up doing anything because who wants to learn another toolchain, right? Instead, lets just drop that in the box next to the palm p

Next time I get a parking ticket, I'll be sure to investigate the temperature stability of the parking meter's clock.

The good news is that we have cross platform software & and APIs for using the device without our software and writing your own analyzer plugins. These products won't sample fast enough for decoding USB 2.0 high speed, but we do su
