Hype for the Future 19B: New England Decoded

Maine Located at the northeastern extreme of the New England, the Northeast, and the contiguous United States (CONUS) as a whole, the State of Maine is the most sparsely populated state of the New England region. Particularly along the border with Québec, Canada, the State is renowned for logging, timber, and related industries that may unfortunately trigger increasing environmental concerns. Along the border with New Brunswick, Canada, cultural traits associated with Acadia from New France […]

The first progress report on the #HP1653B is taking much longer then expected.

Its turned out quite time consuming to produce more modern representations of the data format.

Here is a preview of the blogpost in the first image compared to the original programming manual in the second.

I will probably split the posts in two and only start focusing on the actual Python decoder in a subsequent post.

🧠✨ #Decoding Your #Brain – How We Think, See, and Hear! 🔍🎧🌈

How does the #brain really think?

In our new #Zoomposium, #DanielDennett, one of the most influential philosophers of the mind, talks about how the brain creates #meaning without there being an inner “observer” anywhere.

Wie denkt ein #Gehirn eigentlich wirklich?

In unserem neuen #Zoomposium spricht #DanielDennett einer der einflussreichsten Philosophen des Geistes darüber wie das Gehirn #Bedeutung erzeugt ohne dass irgendwo ein innerer „Betrachter“ sitzt.

🔍🎮 Oh, the riveting saga of #decoding a child's toy fire engine because actually playing with it would be far too pedestrian. A tale of grown-up techies with too much time on their hands, using #SDRs to listen in on the profound secrets of a 27MHz toddler frequency. 🙄🔧

Reverse Engineering a 27MHz RC Toy communication using RTL SDR

My kids have this RC fire engine that works in the 27MHz band. I got curious how the communication is, with objective to control the toy from laptop. I had an RTL SDR in my toolbox. I have used it …

🚀 Welcome to 2025, where nerds are still trying to decode Vec<T> like it's the Da Vinci Code of #programming. 🤓 Spoiler alert: it's just a bunch of nested types wrapped in layers of "safety" jargon, because apparently, simple pointers are too mainstream. 🧩

Under the hood: Vec<T>

Let's look at Vec<T> to get a better understanding of its inner structure.

Update：在 Mastodon 上被說明這不是沒包好：「ap0.nicolasyang.me/@nicolas/statuses/01K6HWCYCGM0AR96C0KKG2YTR0」，而是 free 版本本來就沒支援，參考專案首頁 Intel(R) Media Driver for VAAPI 上面的支援表格，Intel N100 屬於 Alder Lake 架構，所以表格支援看...
