I literally just set up a mac mini last night to run arm64-linux builds. They still don’t support GitHub hosted arm64 runners so this is not so bad I guess.

More shocking is that they still don’t support GitHub-hosted arm64 runners for private repos. Only public repos.

I had to go buy a mac mini off ebay.

If only there was a company that let me run my own cloud like the hyperscalers do.

Does USB use bit stuffing?

I really need to write some more, but I did make a start on some blog posts about using rust in firmware

Storing Vital Product Data with TLV-C
Each product we make has embedded "vital product data" - information which the firmware uses to introspect the multiple hardware revisions or variants it may be running on with a single binary. In thi...

What does Oxide use as an API gateway on top of services using dropshot to handle things like CORS and authentication?

I tried looking around in the omicron repo and didn’t find what I was looking for.

What is the process like getting a product distributed by Mouser? I’m keen to get some of my stuff on there.

Decoding/encoding CAN bus frames. I’d love to be able to inject various kind of bus errors.

I usually stack them vertically. Might try this next time.

In Australia, so I guess I will start buying directly or from the UK instead of from Mouser/DigiKey.

Thank you for the explanation! I didn’t think about the three wire constraint and half duplex.

Looking at the protocol, it’s strange that they didn’t just use Modbus.

Any idea why?

Does postation work over CAN bus yet? I develop multiple hardware products a year, but so far I am using RTT over SWD which requires a debugger attached and is lossy in some cases.

you download the installer so it can download the installer so you can install the installer.
