I nailed the Keystone SATP change bug on CVA6 after only 1.5 months of constant debugging:

"Sometimes smart thinkers just don’t know when to stop, and they create these absurd, all-encompassing, high-level pictures of the universe that are all good and fine, but don’t actually mean anything at all."

Is this a description of Haskell or NixOS? I'm sorry, a bad joke. Please don't get upset.

I still regret selling my Gravis Ultrasound MAX. I might buy one of these some day. It is amazing achievement. Before GUS Amiga sounded so much better than any of the Sound Blaster crap hardware with its 8-bit DACs. GUS was a game changer in the 90s. https://www.tindie.com/products/kdehl/gravis-ultrasound-gus-pnp-replica/

kyllä mä näkisin, että aleksanteri kivimäki on voittaja, vaikka saisikin tuomion.

istuu ehkä kolmisen vuotta, mahdollisesti ison osan avovankilassa, ja onko sakoilla väliä, jos rahat on hajautettuna pseudonyymien takana kryptoissa.

rikos todennäköisesti kannatti. kiinnijäämisen olisi voinut kokonaan estää varmaankin vuokraamalla palvelimet esim. venäjältä, eli ens kerralla fiksummin...

Just realized:

ranger --cmd='set viewmode=multipane' ~/ ~/

Sort of thing that has kept me using midnight commander :-)

#typst is IMHO phenomenal! i've only used #latex for the sake of #beamer but always hated using it. this will change my life for better. yes, there is beamer alternative for this: #polylux.

i've waited something like this to happen for ages (because i neither have time nor skills to do it myself tbh).

I know many people who do something super complex at their work in science or tech, and then after the work they go to a local Chess- or Go-club and then hang out at the local Hacklab soldering stuff together.

I would do that sort of stuff if I was e.g. a factory worker to sort of balance things out in my head. In the current situation, I rather enjoy culture and arts and anything that is not too formal. I would go nuts if I did not balance out both sides of brain :-) In the end, I unscientifically believe that this will also help me to perform better also in a tech job.

I will vote Pekka Haavisto for #presidency of #Finland. There is a show called "The song of my life", and all the candidates were in todays episode. Pekka picked Leonard Cohen track, and that resonated, so the choice was obvious. He picked "Hallelujah". My favorite is from Leonard is "Everybody knows". Not being very politically oriented, I guess the music taste is a good way to select your candidate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xu8u9ZbCJgQ

I try to learn at least one RISC-V opcode a day to get more familiar. Today’s opcode was auipc which stores to a register a PC-relative address from an immediate offset. The offset is given as number of pages.

It is e.g. used to set the gp (which is mnemonic for x3), which is the base address for global variables.

Not trying to teach anyone. Writing things down like this just works for my memory :-)

eipä toi #vastaamo-todistusaineisto jätä hirveästi arvailun varaan. huvin ja harrastuksen vuoksi kiinnostaisi tietää, miten #KRP murti salauksen, mutta se jäänee pimentoon.

This #Behringer release made my realize what was missing from authentic #Roland JP-8000 sound when using @uheplugins #Diva: I need to add 12-bit bit reduction :-) With #ToguAudoLine #DAC added it hits the spot for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Trv8i3PyAAY&t=568s

I need to really in-depth my RISC-V understanding and shift the focus away from the bug I've been struggling with (see various posts) :-) Reading all articles I can find related to CPU state changes, and also CVA6 user manual. So far have survived with trial and error but now I feel that I just don't have understanding of some bigger ideas... I should have taken my focus away from the issue at hand weeks ago but well you know...
