Registration and the Call for Proposals are now open for DebConf25. This year's event will be held in Brest, back in France its place of origin, and will offer talks, hacking sessions, activities and discussions. We are looking forward to a Cheese & Wine party in the right country this year ;-), and an additional Crêpes and Cider evening, a tribute to Brittany https://debconf25.debconf.org/news/2025-03-24-dc25-registration-cfp-open/ #debian #debconf25 #brest #france

Red Hat has an opening for a @fedora Quality Engineer https://redhat.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/jobs/job/Software-Quality-Engineer---Fedora-Linux_R-045047-1

The original Dear Abby was a badass, esp for her time, she was a champion for queer acceptance in her column and was very big on telling parents to listen and accept their children instead of punishing and fighting with them. But also this response is a banger. Top 10 advice columnist responses of all time.

Linaro’s Toolchain team is one of the leading contributors to #Arm support in #GNU #toolchain projects. In this blog we look at a year's worth of Linaro's CI results for the #GDB testsuite: https://ow.ly/n7KT50V3xJH

Celebrate with us next week on the 20th when we’ll do a slow ride on the new park as well as some Slow Streets!

Odd-sized loads: no problem. The wife's cargo today. #cargobike #bicycle

I am looking for a remote (I am Europe-based) internship or half-time job.

Half to learn, half for an extra income.

I do GPU driver & compiler dev for fun. Nowhere near professional level, but I got some experience and a thirst for knowledge.

I also do some type theory things with proof assistants, and some light Linux x86 reverse engineering.

I had worked on reverse engineering mpi3mr & megaraid RAID controller APIs.

I have worked extensively with Vulkan and OpenGL from writing quite a few small game engines in Java.

I did a lot of Java bytecode things; Messed with the Rust compiler; Loads of C OSDev things; Haskell (mostly messing around); Wayland (I have a bunch of simple apps); X11 (wrote a status bar, window manager, compositor, image viewer)

I have extensive experience with reading very large C codebases, and spent a lot of time digging around the internals of Linux, specifically the kernel and low level subsystems.

I worked with encrypted chat protocols specifically on E2EE, on Matrix, writing spec proposals for removing ambiguity, improving UX, and security.

I have some experience with x86 and 6502 assembly; wrote a 6502 assembler and partial (not cycle accurare) emulator.

My gitea https://gitea.itycodes.org/itycodes

If anyone is interested, please reach out. (Boosts welcome)

This is sort of my CV; I will not be able to sign a contract under my legal name, but tranquillity codes is a name I use for years and has a commit in Mesa, so it should be good enough as common law.

Do note that this is a personal account, so be careful about viewing our general posts besides this one. We have posted recently about SPIR-V control flow, stack machine to SSA, and Intel GEN assembly.

"Voters in Stockholm and London both initially opposed congestion pricing before and as the toll was introduced. But as the benefits of less traffic became immediately apparent, support for the toll shot up in both cities."

You can now jailbreak your AMD CPU! 🔥We've just released a full microcode toolchain, with source code and tutorials. https://bughunters.google.com/blog/5424842357473280/zen-and-the-art-of-microcode-hacking

Hey RISC-V folks! It'll be a 5th Gbg RISC-V meetup, co-located with the RISC-V in Space Workshop! Sign up here: https://www.meetup.com/goteborg-risc-v-group/events/306521257/

Announcing it on Mastodon before anywhere else:

We've just set up a Discord server for Patreon supporters at the Sergeant and Lieutenant levels. We're doing this slowly and might expand to other tiers as we see how it all works out.

Thanks for your support!

I hope I ever get to be even *one hundredth* as brave as Zelenskyy when it comes to standing up to powerful bullies. 🇺🇦🇨🇦

@keithp ya, sounds like it...

Good news is I was trying to do something so stupid I don't even need to run the tests to know it'll never work ;)

@keithp ya, for builds crosstool-ng is great. That's why I was kind of happy to stumble into the test script. It's gluing together all the test stuff that's the big headache, I'll just end up with a box full of hung QEMU instances again...

@keithp having something smaller than OE would be great. The crosstool-ng flow would need some distro, though, and at that point I'm back to gluing stuff together -- which kind of defeats the "use someone else's stuff" goal ;)

@keithp looks like maybe OE can do it, though? https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/blob/master/meta/recipes-devtools/gcc/gcc-runtime.inc#L286

@keithp it seems to be somewhat common, everything assumes you've got HW that you want to run the tests on. I think we're just in an odd spot because we still don't have any useful hardware...
