i cannot get over how good this piece of writing by @neauoire is. this is (i think) the first time i've been brought to tears while reading about technology

absolutely beautiful

monochrome image from a slide deck. on it is a black rectangle with white writing that reads: "we have been conditioned to believe that gadgets for everyone just rain from the sky" overlaid on top of a figure that can't be made out
monochrome, not anti-aliased image from a slide deck. there are many things overlaid on top of eachother. in the foreground, there is written "that which cannot be repaired is already broken." behind it are a kanji i don't know, an icon of a wrench and some gears, an image of a man at a chalkboard (it's andrey kolmogorov but you can't tell from the image), and some blocked out text that starts with "advantages of simple tooling".

A neat "book" i came across courtesy of @itsfoss.
"Putting the 'YOU' in CPU" explains how a CPU works, how computers run programs, and the basics of these wonderful devices that have taken over our life, in simple (ish) terms.

For anyone that wants to know HOW computers do what they do, this is a great place to start, and it's free, readable on the website, on GitHub, or as a downloaded PDF.

Intro - Putting the "You" in CPU

Curious exactly what happens when you run a program on your computer? Learn how multiprocessing works, what system calls really are, how computers manage memory with hardware interrupts, and how Linux loads executables.

Recently I found that quite a few of my #Twitter and #Mastodon followers are working in high-performance #computing (HPC). At first I was surprised because I’m not a #HPC person, even if I love high performance computers. Then I realized that there are quite few overlaps, and one of my best friends is also deeply involved in HPC. My work, #logging, is also a fundamental part of HPC environments.

Capacitive touch input with RP2040 and Raspberry Pi Pico

In this online class, technology journalist Jeremy Cook will teach how Raspberry Pi's RP2040 can detect touch inputs with the addition of a single resistor for each pin.

Looking for people who know something about early computing, especially in the Netherlands. Please boost and help me solve the mystery of this custom made plate that used to belong to my grandfather Bram Jan Loopstra, one of the pioneers of Dutch computing. What do the pictures mean? #computing #history

The National Museum of Computing awarded #RaspberryPi co-founders Liz and Eben Upton Honorary Fellowships acknowledging “outstanding individuals who have made significant and lasting contributions to the fields of #computing and #technology.”

They had to stand up and talk about themselves. For ages. But they got nice medals in exchange.

Photos and video from the event here:

Liz and Eben honoured by The National Museum of Computing - Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi co-founders Liz and Eben Upton took a trip to The National Museum of Computing because they're both really rather good.
