@joxean You mean the power lines/transformers? If so, are these expensive enough to outweigh differences in power plant rebuilding costs? I mean even if you rebuild the distribution system you'd still be in trouble if there's nothing to hook up to, but maybe the distribution is much more costly than the plant so it doesn't matter? On the other hand, how many men, bombs, planes, etc. do you need to wipe a distributed vs. monolithic system?

I read a report recently that confirmed that straight PCB traces, right angle, and orthogonally placed components can actually make electrons sad and slow them down. They much prefer the excitement of whizzing along curvy traces, particularly if they end up going in to a chip at a random angle. And bright colours really make them want to work harder.

So I will be updating all kits with design philosophy. The first to be done is the RC2014 Mini II Picasso. You can pick one up now at

I was foolish enough to link to a Twitter thread in an old slide deck. It's not on IA.

Are there any alternatives where I can look up the tweet?

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2025032721-CVE-2023-53032-70ce@gregkh/T/#u "Note that it's harmless since the value will be checked at the next step." Sure, but our Bash script has determined this will get a CVE anyway: https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lee/vulns.git/tree/scripts/cve_review#n192

The demoscene has become a national UNESCO heritage in Sweden! I was part of making the application, so ofc I think it's great, but I wrote a little bit about how difficult it is to generalize the demoscene. https://www.goto80.com/the-demoscene-as-a-unesco-heritage-in-sweden

@algernon As for generating SVG's, a fuzzer may be useful: https://komar.in/en/code/xmlfuzzer (haven't used this one, but the description fits)

The Pentium processor, like many others, implements its instructions in microcode. Each step of an instruction is described by a micro-instruction, stored in the chip in the microcode ROM.
This die photo shows the parts of the Pentium. Let's take a quick look at the microcode ROM...1/N
