I need a favor. A good friend of mine got laid off. She's in NYC on a H1B, and being trans means she's not very keen to return to her home country!

She's an amazing software engineer, with experience leading teams, working with stakeholders, and is happy to come in to existing code bases to improve things.

She's primarily looking for full stack and is very comfortable with TS, JS, Python and Rust, but is happy to adapt.

NYC/Remote DM me for contact details #getfedihired

On Monday Surfer turns 3 and yesterday we released v0.5.0 featuring the long awaited analog rendering 🎉

There are of course a bunch of other improvements that you can read more about in the change log

Massive thanks to Roman Popov for the analog drawing feature!

@whitequark Gah, stupid autocorrect. FOSSi

@whitequark Hard to define I guess, but it seems like my posts reach a much broader circle than anywhere else. And more industry people than what I can get to on fedi/bsky

In the fossil space I seem to also have made a name for myself as the "LinkedIn hot take poster" in addition to the Surfer guy :D

Not entirely sure how I feel about that particular title, but still

@whitequark @zrb 100% by far my most spread post on there is a meme (that I posted after ranting about Vivado)

And that in turn gave me a while bunch of attention for Surfer and Spade

@whitequark Unfortunately I have had way more success there than on other social media. I hat dit but it sure is effective

I find that it is way easier to game than bsky is and twitter was which is honestly kind of fun to exploit

@whitequark Crystals are clearly black magic technology and every working crystal requires the sacrifice of another

@whitequark @dmbaturin @dramforever Oh, being able to set CORS headers would have made a lot of tings easier for me in the past

@whitequark @gsuberland That's easy Surfer can live reload the underlying file (as long as the names don't get moved around)

I don't _think_ we have a way to load waves from a string via wasm but that's easy enough to add, I can look at that in the next few days

@whitequark @gsuberland How embeddable are we talking here? You can absolutely throw a Surfer instance into a tab on the playground and have it show waves (assuming you have a VCD string you can hand over)

Some automation (like adding signals on the top level) automatically should also be pretty easy

@whitequark Damn, that is extremely cool

@whitequark I... uhhh... damn, that sucks :/

@whitequark Oh never mind then :D

~~Maybe you need an exhaustive list of projects you didn't build on your website too~~

@whitequark You should! Especially with such a wide variety of projects.

It took me a long time to realize you were the original author of solvespace for example

@whitequark @wren6991 Needs more tcl

@wren6991 I love it when I learn about basic things missing from gtkwave like this :D

Glad you like Surfer :)

@whitequark @tom_verbeure @wren6991 time for a repost

@karotte I'd be curious how many i2c targets actually ignore clocks that are too fast

@wren6991 @whitequark You may be interested in https://sonic-rv.ics.jku.at/. I don't know the full technical details but it does allow fully in-browser simulation of a few risc-v cores.

Given that it uses GHDL I assume that this has a backend and doesn't simulate in-browser but I could be wrong. Maybe @lcsklmmr knows more

@whitequark @wren6991 Oh true, I forgot that the cxxrtl is probably way easier to just build and embed in wasm, I should give this a try
