Open Domesday – free digital access to eleventh century England

Open Domesday by Anna Powell-Smith is the first free online copy of Domesday Book. Domesday Book (/ˈduːmzdeɪ/ DOOMZ-day; the Middle English spelling of “Doomsday Book”) is a manuscript record of the Great Survey of much of England and parts of Wales completed in 1086 at the behest of William the Conqueror. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle states that in 1085 the king sent his agents to survey every shire in England, to list his holdings and dues owed to him. Written in Medieval Latin, it was highly abbreviated and included some vernacular native terms without Latin equivalents. The survey’s main purpose was to record the annual value of every piece of landed property to its lord, and the resources in land, ...

Tracking down a 25% regression on LLVM RISC-V

Kavin Gnanapandithan performs an analysis of a benchmark on RISC-V targets. A recent LLVM commit improved isKnownExactCastIntToFP to fold fpext(sitofp x to float) to double into a direct uitofp x to double cast, but this inadvertently broke a downstream narrowing optimization in visitFPTrunc that relied on the fpext to narrow a double to float, causing a ~24% performance regression on RISC-V targets, where fdiv.d (33 cycle latency) was emitted instead of fdiv.s (19 cycle latency). My fix extends getMinimumFPType with range analysis to recognize that fptrunc(uitofp x double) to float can be reduced to uitofp x to float, restoring the narrowing optimization. See the analysis in the post here.

This fun project from Thai maker Yakroo will speak to anyone who grew up in the 90s: In this project, we will build Cyber Gotchi, a digital life system that evolves from a simple virtual pet concept into a physical interactive device. The system simulates a living digital creature with real-time internal states such as hunger, energy, and health. These states affect its behavior and appearance through animation, sound, and physical output. Unlike traditional digital pets that exist only on a screen, Cyber Gotchi extends its “life” into the real world using hardware. More details here on Instructables.

Ken Shirriff looks at the amazing electromechanical angle computer inside the B-52 bomber aircraft’s star tracker. Before GPS, how did aircraft navigate? One important technique was celestial navigation: navigating from the positions of the stars, planets, or the sun. While celestial navigation is accurate, cannot be jammed, and doesn’t require any broadcast infrastructure, it is a difficult and time-consuming process to perform manually. In the early 1960s, an automated system was developed for the B-52 bomber to automatically track stars and compute navigation information. Digital computers weren’t suitable at the time, so the star tracking system performed trigonometric calculations with ...

An open source Arduino library for the ESP32-P4 LP (Low Power) core

Xorlent on Github has released an MIT open source licence library for using the ESP32-P4 LP (Low Power) core. The ESP32-P4 includes a dedicated LP (Low Power) core – a full RISC-V processor that runs independently while the main dual-core CPU is in deep sleep. It has access to LP peripherals (LP IO, LP I2C, LP UART, LP SPI) and can wake the HP core when a condition is met. ESP-IDF exposes this through its ulp component (ulp_lp_core_load_binary(), ulp_lp_core_run(), etc.). Arduino-esp32 does not include that component library, so those functions cannot be called from an Arduino sketch. The ESP32P4_ULP library solves this by: Re-implementing the necessary ...

Fits on a floppy

Many of Matt Sephton’s apps are small enough to fit on a 1.44MB floppy drive. Why go small? A Manifesto for Small Software Software has lost its way. Apps that once shipped on a single floppy disk now demand gigabytes of your storage, minutes of your time, and far too much of your patience. We accepted this gradual bloat as progress. It isn’t. Every app I make is built to be as small as it can be. Not as a gimmick, but as a discipline. The floppy disk is my measuring stick: 1.44 MB. If the software that ran entire ...

Salim Benbouziyane is working on the second iteration of a DIY CAD Mouse, rebuilt to behave like a real 6DoF controller. There are still some motion processing issues, but it’s much better than the previous version. It uses a custom PCB with three magnetic sensors, a 3D printed spring, and a redesigned enclosure that is smaller and easier to build. Check out the video below and more on GitHub.

Franklin’s bad ads for Apple II clones

Over on Such Bad Tech Ads, they write about how a beloved hometown impersonator had no idea what he was signing up for with a photoshoot. Franklin Computer Corporation’s hardware, software, and ad concepts were stolen intellectual property, which, I think, qualifies as “bad.” Franklin was focused on cloning Apple products and selling them for less, from day one. Their first computer was the ACE 100, an acronym for Apple Compatible Equipment according to nosher.net.

Turning speakers to microphones by hackers

A paper from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev Cyber Security Research Center explores how common audio devices like headphones and earbuds can be covertly turned into microphones via software vulnerabilities. Headphones, earphones, and simple earbuds can be covertly turned into microphones by malware, even if a computer has no microphone or the microphone is disabled. This is possible because modern audio chipsets, especially Realtek codecs, allow software to change the function of audio jacks—a process called jack retasking. Malware like SPEAKE(a)R can exploit this by reconfiguring headphone jacks to act as microphone inputs, enabling eavesdropping. Experiments show that while the audio quality ...

Unlike previous versions that relied on dynamic memory, this revamped library uses C++ Templates to allocate command lists and buffers statically at compile-time. Command strings are stored directly in Program Memory (Flash) using the F() macro, ensuring that SRAM is preserved for your application logic. The library operates using a non-blocking state machine, allowing your main loop to continue running while serial data is being gathered.

The Linux 7.1 update includes new speedy NTFS driver

Tom’s Hardware writes about the Linux 7.1 update which includes new in-kernel NTFS driver, a storage support upgrade for Linux users. Linux 7.1 is bringing what might be the biggest under-the-radar storage change in years: a new in-kernel NTFS driver that finally treats Microsoft’s filesystem like a native citizen instead of a tolerated guest. After years of half-solutions, including slow FUSE drivers and under-maintained kernel code, Linux users will finally get fast, reliable, and fully integrated NTFS support out of the box. The headline feature under discussion here is a ground-up rework of NTFS support built directly into the kernel. Unlike the long-standing ...

This Stockholm cafe is run by Gemini

An new cafe opened on April 18th. Andon Café is in the Vasastan section of Stockholm, Sweden. It serves coffee, drinke, and limited food. What sets it apart from other cafes in Stockholm or elsewhere? This cafe is managed by a Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview bot. The website, andon.cafe, gives the basic information. Inside, there is a phone where you can call the cafe’s bot, Mona, to communicate with it. There is also a monitor explaining their experiment and the profit the cafe is generating.

See where Amtrak trains are and how full they are in real time

Riley Walz is scraping Amtrak, and made a website to see how busy each train is. The data is formatted and presented on the website walzr.com/amtrak-trains. (picture above) It pulls from Amtrak’s ticket reservation API. I can see both the number of tickets still available and the total capacity for each train. Which I can then use to infer number of people on the train. Check it out here. Via X. Also check out amtraker.com for US train info.

Printed Neurons Communicating with Living Brain Cells

To move closer to a biological model, Mark Hersam’s team developed artificial neurons using soft, printable materials that better mimic the brain’s structure and behavior. The backbone of that advance is a series of electronic inks. Photo by Mark Hersam via Northwestern University Engineers at Northwestern University printed artificial neurons capable of communicating with the brain. In a new study, the Northwestern team developed flexible, low-cost devices that generate electrical signals realistic enough to activate living brain cells. When tested on slices of tissue from mouse brains, the artificial neurons successfully triggered responses from real neurons, demonstrating a new level ...

Three binding posts (GND, V1, V2) on the board can be assigned to schematic nets via the dropdowns. GND is automatically assigned to net 0 (SPICE-style) or GND when a netlist is loaded. The validator treats an assigned binding post as an electrical endpoint on that net. ...

Well, we can’t. The bigger the lens is, the bigger the cone of light is too. But also: the wider the field of view of a lens, the bigger the cone of light too.

Learning something old every day: 8087 emulation on 8086 systems

Michal Necasek had a recent opportunity to get reacquainted with the mechanism used for software emulation of the 8087 FPU on 8086/8088 machines. The 8086 CPU (1978) had a generic co-processor interface utilized by the Intel 8087 FPU (1980), initially called the Numeric Processor Extension or NPX. And although the interface was generic, the 8087 was likely the only chip which could actually use it. The 8087 was a somewhat expensive add-on, assuming that a given system actually had a socket to plug the 8087 into (IBM PCs did, but other 8086/8088 systems did not necessarily have one). There was ...

ESP32Synth v2.4.0 is an ultra-fast bare-metal synth engine for maximum polyphony

Danilo Gabriel’s ESP32Synth v2.4.0 is a high-performance, polyphonic audio synthesis library for the ESP32. It has been engineered for applications requiring extreme optimization, zero-latency audio, massive polyphony (up to 350+ voices), custom DSP hooks, and direct SD card audio streaming. With it, you can create music, complex sound effects, and generative tracks. You can emulate the classic Chiptune sounds (using the native bitcrush and bit reduction engine) or play large WAV files from an SD card in the background without straining the processor. Dual-core ESP32 classic or ESP32-S3 are recommended as well as an I2S DAC. See this MIT licensed ...

The design is based off of lcamtuf’s 5×6 font-inline.h, which is itself inspired by the ZX Spectrum’s 8×8 font. 5×5 is the smallest size that doesn’t compromise legibility: 2×2: Impossible. 3×3: Technically possible, but unreadable. 4×4: Not enough to draw “E”, “M” or “W” properly. 5×5: This font.

Using flipdisc / flipdot displays

Flipdiscs (or flip dots) are a display type that utilizes electromagnetic pulses to flip a small disc between two colors. Despite being invented over 80 years ago, the underlying technology is mostly the same today. Kathy Korevec dives in to these devices: I chose them because I wanted to design a large interactive wall art for my office, and didn’t like the LED glow of traditional screens. Flip displays are an interesting alternative. They have high readability, a long lifespan, and achieves anywhere between 25-60fps.

The copy-protection mechanism of the SNES is something I already dig into in my 10NES article. It works by having two chips talking in lockstep. One chip is in the console, the other in the cart.

On Monday, version 2 of this dataset was released and now contains more than 3.4M panels. In addition to the panels and arrays being refreshed, there is a new rooftop array dataset. See all the details in the post here.

Sparkle is an easy-to-use solution to creating Commodore 64 projects

Sparkle is an easy-to-use “all-in-one” cross-platform solution to creating multi-file Commodore 64 projects with an IRQ loader (demo, game, disk magazine, music collection, etc.). It supports both sequential and index-based loading and has limited file saving capability. There is a manual. (PDF) See more on the GitHub project page.

Discret 11, the French TV encryption of the 1980’s

Fabien Sanglard describes the encryption used on the SECAM video broadcast on French TV in the 1980s. 1984 was the launch of a fourth French TV channel. Canal Plus (Channel Plus) was to revolutionize the TV landscape with recent movies, international sports coverage, and no commercials. To fuel its ambitions, “Canal” was to be funded with monthly fees paid by subscribers. The technical difficulty was dead simple. How do you make sure only those who paid can watch when the signal is broadcast to everybody? Easy, you encrypt it with something called “Discret 11”. Discret 11 doesn’t encrypt at the ...

A new tool lets you see where your backyard was millions of years ago

Paleolatitude.org allows you to trace latitude changes for any given location throughout Earth’s history. From roughly 320 million to 200 million years ago, the North American continent was contiguous with Africa, South America, and Europe, existing as a single continent called Pangaea. Then, a three-pronged fissure tore Africa, South America, and North America asunder, creating a volcanic rift zone that unleashed powerful eruptions as magma surged through the weakened crust. This tool will be particularly useful for paleoclimatologists—scientists who reconstruct Earth’s ancient climates. Many do this by analyzing geological samples, but because latitude determines the angle of the Sun’s rays and ...

Samir Bashir on igor’sLAB writes about an issue we all run into: USB port colors. USB ports are one of those wonderfully everyday details that almost everyone sees but hardly anyone really questions—until suddenly the external SSD runs at a snail’s pace or the smartphone charges sluggishly when plugged into the “wrong” port. For years, the colors of USB ports have served as a quick guide. Unfortunately, in practice, the whole thing is far less clear-cut than many YouTube tutorial videos suggest. That’s the real takeaway: The colors can help, but they aren’t a binding standard—and anyone who blindly relies ...

People backed it. The board shipped. And from those modest beginnings grew MicroPython — the language that has made microcontrollers approachable for makers, students, hobbyists and educators worldwide. Before MicroPython, learning to program a microcontroller meant wrangling C, Makefiles and toolchains. After MicroPython, it means plugging in a board and typing print("hello") at a REPL.

How Does GPS Work?

image via Shri Khalpada, PerThirtySix In this addition to the How The Heck? series for curious, non-technical readers from PerThirtySix, Shri Khalpada explains how the heck GPS works: The answer is in some ways simpler than you’d expect, and in other ways more complex. GPS is fundamentally a translation tool: it converts time into distance. A satellite sends a signal, your phone catches it, and the delay between those two events tells the phone exactly how far away the satellite is. Everything else is about making that measurement precise enough to be useful: accounting for bad clocks, satellite geometry, ...

Creating specific pulse trains using an RP2040, PIO and CircuitPython

James Bowman writes about a common electronic need that does not have an easy, universal solution: generating a specific critically timed set of binary pulses. Because pulse shape and line turnaround are timing-critical, they require custom low-level code on a microcontroller to implement the protocol. An example is the WS2812B RGB LED spec (commonly called Adafruit NeoPixels). James has created a CircuitPython program called PulseTrain specifically for the Raspberry Pi RP2040 Pico. The code uses the RP2040 PIO subsystem to generate exact pulse trains to drive a digital line, allowing an easy creation of common bitstreams used in many protocols. ...

NASA originated sourced images are generally not subject to U.S. copyright and are made widely available, though they are not technically “public domain.” Hank has collected them and allowed search by a number of methods: chronologically, crew photos, spacecraft exterior photos, photos by specific camera and videos. Full metadata is shown when available. Check out the site here.

Building the MetaClockClock78: 156 analog clocks in one display

Erich Styger over at MCU on Eclipse has completed his most ambitious clock build yet: the MetaClockClock78, a pair of wall clocks each containing 78 individual analog clock faces arranged in a 6×13 matrix. Combined, the two panels put 156 independently controlled clock faces — each with a 360-degree dual-shaft stepper motor and a ring of 40 SK6812-SIDE LEDs — on the wall simultaneously. The concept is elegant: because each clock hand is individually addressable over an RS-485 bus, the array can be choreographed to sweep through animated patterns or render text. The clocks don’t just tell time — they ...

Comparing the Z80 and the 6502 to their relatives

Michael Martin writes about two classic microprocessors, the Z80 and 6502, and compares them to related chips. Last week’s adventures with the Exidy Sorcerer led me to write a Z80 version of the LZ4 decompressor I’d previously used on the SNES, the CoCo, and the Genesis. At this point, this has become generic enough that I took my previous implementations and broke them out into their own little library directory so I could use them in other projects. However, while I was looking at those implementations, I rapidly found that I had not three implementations, but six; the Z80 implementation inspired versions for the earlier ...

midi2 is a small piece of infrastructure for boards that already have too much to do. Sound chips, displays, USB stacks, sensors, network. MIDI 2.0 arrives at the transport layer as 32-bit words; midi2 turns those words into structured events and stays out of the way the rest of the time. The library implements 100% of the UMP format (M2-104-UM v1.1.2) and 100% of MIDI-CI (M2-101-UM v1.2). The application owns memory and decides which modules to link. The transport (USB, BLE, network, serial) lives somewhere else, by design. midi2 is the C99 core. Higher-level wrappers depend on it and add ...

Where generative AI tools are being deployed, workers are increasingly asked to perform supervisory control tasks as the “human in the loop” overseeing and analyzing a process rather than executing the process manually. We draw six lessons for ...

How to reverse-engineer almost any keyboard matrix with Raspberry Pi Pico

thanishurs31 on Instructables has developed a Pi Pico and CircuitPython solution to scan an entire keyboard ribbon cable matrix. The old way to tackle this is the continuity-meter dance — you probe every possible pin pair, draw a grid, cross things out, wonder if that reading was real or just a ghost, and eventually end up with a hand-cramp and a half-correct diagram. It works. Eventually. But it’s also the kind of experience that makes people give up and buy a new keyboard. This guide does it differently. We use a Raspberry Pi Pico running CircuitPython to scan the entire ...

On TikTok, young women are going viral for crafting whimsical homemade computers inside purses.

This tool is a simulator that allows you to execute and verify the programmable I/O (PIO) assembly code for the RP2040 ( found in the Raspberry Pi Pico) and the RP2350 (found in the Raspberry Pi Pico 2) directly in a web browser. No installation is required, and you can immediately check the behavior of the state machine within the opened page.

Winpodx is like a Linux Subsystem for Windows

Although there are a bunch of ways to run Linux applications on a Windows PC, WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) is by far the more efficient option – both from the convenience and performance standpoints. Ayush Pande has been using it instead of dual-booting or running GUI-heavy virtual machines on my everyday systems and dev environments, and barring gaming, it has surpassed its rivals in every scenario. So much so that he started wanting something similar on the Linux front. Winpodx is essentially WSL’s Linux counterpart, but it uses containers instead of WSL2’s VM.

Researchers have uncovered an unusual new form of aluminium that challenges long-held assumptions about how this common metal behaves. Researchers at King’s College London have identified an unusual new form of aluminum, one of the most abundant metals in Earth’s crust. The discovery points to a much less expensive and more sustainable substitute for rare earth metals that are widely used in modern technology and industry. A central achievement of the research is the first reported example of a cyclotrialumane. This compound consists of three aluminum atoms linked together in a triangular arrangement.

While it features a standalone Command Line Interface (CLI) written in Python, it is most commonly used as a highly optimized extension for Visual Studio Code. The core of PlatformIO is its unified, declarative configuration system. Every project relies on a single platformio.ini file at its root directory, which dictates the build environments, microcontrollers, and settings.

Intrusion Logging, available as part of Advanced Protection Mode, enables “persistent and privacy-preserving forensics logging to allow for investigation of devices in the event of a suspected compromise,” the company said. The feature, it added, was developed in partnership with Amnesty International and Reporters Without Borders. According to a help document shared by Google, it logs device and network activities on a daily basis, including information about device behavior and the various applications that run on it.

From $70,000 SUVs to orphans overnight The speed of Fisker’s collapse was staggering. The company, once touted as a Tesla rival that had secured over 31,000 Ocean reservations totaling $1.7 billion in potential revenue, produced just 11,000 vehicles before the money ran out. Bankruptcy filings revealed more than $1 billion in debts. The core problem was architectural. Fisker had built what ...

Bumbershoot Software writes about a nice lazy afternoon with PICO-8 making a port of Simulated Evolution. The first challenge, of course, was that I had to write the simulation itself. My earlier implementations were all in C or assembly language, and PICO-8 needs to be programmed in its own dialect of Lua. Happily, Lua is, itself, pretty comfy, so adapting the C code was straightforward. It was not, however, perfectly exact. The original BASIC code I had adapted was a little bit buggy. It intended to loop through all the bugs in each simulation step, but because of the way iterations interacted with ...

Gyroflow is an application that can stabilize your video by using motion data from a gyroscope and optionally an accelerometer. Modern cameras record that data internally (GoPro, Sony, Insta360 etc), and this application stabilizes the captured footage precisely by using them. It can also use gyro data from an external source (eg. from Betaflight blackbox). See the video below and more on GitHub.

NEW PRODUCT – Machined Red Aluminum Servo Arm – 1.75″ Long If you’ve bought a servo from us, you probably got a bunch of plastic add-ons that you can snap onto the servo’s rotating shaft. These are called ‘servo horns’ and the standard ones you’ll get are plastic pieces. They’re good but often short and not very strong plastic. This Machined Aluminum Red Servo Arm lets you bring your A-Game to servo projects. It’s made out of strong anodized aluminum, looks great, is easy to install, and will last for a long time. The servo arm is ~57mm long, and the ...

Pi-Hole Without the Pi

While it is in the name, you don’t actually need a Raspberry Pi to protect yourself from ads. Pi-hole will run on any hardware that meets the minimal requirements and is running one of the many supported operating systems. Switch and Click uses Docker to turn an old computer into an ad-blocker for the whole network. Pi-hole is THE go-to way to block ads across every device on your network, and it turns out you don’t even need a Raspberry Pi to run it. Here’s how it went for me.

Designing an FPGA calculator from scratch

This is a scientific BCD calculator that uses binary-coded decimals, the same internal number format HP used in its scientific calculators going back to the 1970s. It represents every decimal digit as a 4-bit nibble, which means perfect decimal accuracy, no floating-point conversion errors, and an architecture that is genuinely shaped by the problem it solves. To make that work cleanly, we also design a custom CPU that thinks in nibbles too. It runs on an Altera Cyclone II FPGA, synthesized with Quartus, simulated with Verilator and ModelSim, and debugged through a Qt-based desktop prototype that also compiles to WebAssembly ...

Implementing virtual memory using two MC68000s microprocessors

Hisabumi Hatsugai has tried implementing virtual memory using two MC68000 chips. The MMU was configured using SRAM. There were two SRAMs: one was TransRAM, which converts logical addresses to physical addresses, and the other was AccessRAM, which records access to physical pages (read/write). The logical space is 8 Mbytes, ranging from 0xFF800000 to 0xFFFFFFFF. The page size is 4 kbytes. TransRAM converts 11-bit logical page numbers (A12-A22) to 8-bit physical page numbers (see block diagram). In TransRAM, physical page numbers 0xFE and 0xFF represent page faults. Accessing the logical page containing these values asserts the page fault signal PGFault. In ...

By early 1980, the Apple II, which had trailed the Commodore PET and Tandy/Radio Shack TRS-80 at first, had become a remarkable success, with a great deal of help from Personal Software’s VisiCalc. The Apple IPO at the end of the year ratified that fact, minting hundreds of new millionaires. In 1984, thirteen computer magazine editors unreservedly recommended the Apple IIe as the best computer for schools, because of the “tremendous body of interesting and innovative educational material available for the Apple ranging from real-time science experiments to ...
