Just looking at some code of mine from 1994, for satellite tracking, and found this optimistic gem.

TIL: Dickie George, who spoke at the 2007 #SELinux Symposium, and who was added to the NSA HoH in 2022, is the guy who created differential cryptanalysis while reviewing the DES code from IBM! This is why the then-mysterious S boxes were added. https://www.nsa.gov/Press-Room/Digital-Media-Center/Biographies/Biography-View-Page/Article/3330261/richard-dickie-george/

@danluu @regehr I think this is more about the culture of the company / team than anything else. Productivity is a side effect of good culture - working conditions, recognition, respect, inclusiveness, overall package, challenging & meaningful work etc. You don’t hire for productivity, you create an environment where everyone can thrive, and productivity will come.

@rvedotrc The training modules I see are so painfully slow. Oddly enough, these tech companies seem to forget about neurodivergance & how awful these things are for so. many. tech. workers.

I'm not interested in having Fedi 'splained to me. I'm just saying why more Black folk are on BlueSky:

1. It should be almost impossible for a new, non-technical user to onboard onto the Fediverse and accidentally join a server where they will receive racist death threats.

2. It should not be possible for racists to reply to a Black user's post with hateful gore images, without other users on the server knowing it.

3. It should be easy for a new admin to default into a safe, general denylist.

@jayulfelder Anti-trans speech is a form of violence, in my view.

Slow but sure progress on my 1kW HF/VHF amplifier power supply. Bought a PCB for the Eltek module and decided to solder the output wires (10 AWG THHN) rather than use the more common XT-60 connectors. After some research, I found out that XT-60s, commonly used for drones & RC batteries, are only rated at 30A continuous. The 60A figure is for peak current, and the available specs are very light on details generally. This PSU is being built for 40A continuous (at 50v), so the XT-60 is not sufficient. Next up will be to connect this Sparkfun CAN shield to configure & monitor the Eltek.

This is all rack mountable & could be installed into gator cases for portable use with a generator. I like rack mounting into gator cases for home use generally as it can be all kept clean & self contained. And easily moved.

And here is the power supply. 50 VDC @ 40A max. I’m using a surplus Flatpack2 server PSU, with space for a 2nd to run in parallel or backup. Also room for 28V (for relays) & 13.8V modules.
