Nordmark

Digital designer and supposedly a software developer. Enjoyer of Fusesoc, beer and synthesizers.

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

ah, intended to go but forgot all about it with various other stuff going on. I'm currently doing som design work among other things for Zeropoint, quite fun stuff

[Björn Töpel @bjorntopel]

The first Göteborg @risc_v meetup is a wrap: Rivos, Inc @gaisler_space @AssuredAB @ZeroPointTechno @Kryptoblog Thanks all! It was a blast!

Oh, and if you're interested in giving a talk -- ping me!

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

@amann11 https://t.co/7p6xWArd1x this was the talk referred to, hopefully the slides will be made available. Haven't looked up in detail myself yet, still at the event

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

Interesting to hear about using qemu together with verilator outputs, a possibility that's been brought up at work but didn't even know AMD had official work on it. Last serious technical stuff for the day I think, time to find a chimay

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

speaking of Subservient I haven't properly brought up any chip yet because reasons, but the IO tests are working out fine for some of the chips and they sure are shiny

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

Pretty sure I just saw my living room (image from unpacking of Subservient) in Philipp Wagners talk at FOSDEM. Good with a surprise to wake you up properly after a night of beers

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

@mguthaus @0x01K Yeah, I'm suspending judgement for now, but I certainly wouldn't call it pretty.

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

Watching the first session for the ASYNC summer school. Big brained stuff. As usual my first thought is "how can I build a synthesizer with this?"

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

@proppy https://t.co/wDJqutt8ae slides are openly available here, the sessions were recorded so I'd assume they will be made available later on

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

Olof up to no good again. Some probably award-winning animations in this presentation

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

Day one of RISC-V Week done with then. I should try Clash. I should also fire up a Linux-ready RV core on one of my boards and do some more serious project rather than messing around bare metal. Right now I feel more like trying a beer though

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

@OlofKindgren you should stop by my "studio" sometime, we can insert exactly one sequence into the octatrack, turn knobs and wave our hands at the theremin for ten hours

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

got a weird mood yesterday and started cleaning up the audio synthesizer I originally intended for openmpw. Lot of things going on as usual so we'll see when I actually make repos public but man cocotb is nice, having scipy directly available in DSP testbenches and such

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

*MPW4, if not obvious

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

Olof went and had the MP4 submission printed. Got kinda large.

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

So I'm not only going to show up at the RISC-V Week next month, I'll actually speak for a bit. Now, I'm not all that worried given some prior stage experience, but I suspect the audience here will be somewhat different from the crust punks I screamed in front of in my late teens

[Olof Kindgren @OlofKindgren]

A-well-a everybody's heard about the SERV!
Don't you know about the SERV? Come to the @risc_v days in Paris May 3-5 and check out @knordmark89 and mine presentation How much score could a CoreScore score if a CoreScore could score cores

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

@OlofKindgren @risc_v I really need to actually use this account more often...

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

got slightly panicky since I didn't start until right before christmas (and had other full time work in the days after), but seems like I might get a revised Subservient submitted for mpw4... waiting for the tapeout job results, precheck looks fine

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

@matthewvenn @tnt Exciting! Just hope I'll manage to make a nice signoff for mpw4.

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

thinking it could be fun to make a fusesoc generator for padframes with sky130 maybe

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

Gotten comfortable at my new assignment (hacking away at some QNX stuff within the Geely sphere), and rested up with some vacation. I wonder what the natural next step would be to better support openlane with fusesoc, excluding the major restructuring to be done at some point

[Nordmark @knordmark89]

closest thing to a "tech project" during my weeks off was extending a friends old TR-505 deum machine with individual outputs. really minimal hack but I always enjoy poking on musical gear
