In the past months, Tesla has been offering a free, one-month trial of their full self-driving (FSD) system to all current owners. It looks like they are rolling this out in stages, because I only got mine only a few days ago.
There has been much anticipation around AMD's flagship MI300X accelerator. With unmatched raw specs, the pressing question remains: Can it outperform NVIDIA's Hopper architecture in real-world AI workloads? We have some exciting early results to share. For the past month, TensorWave and MK1 have worked closely to…

Introduction
What follows is the story of how I fixed not one, but two, different flawed Altera USB Blaster clone devices that never worked correctly after I bought them.
Duck Hunt is considered a classic of the Nintendo Entertainment System. But surprisingly, the concept of hunting ducks did not originate in 1984– people have...

In this article I demonstrate a software only attack that allows an operating system to set the PCRs of a discrete TPM device to arbitrary values and unseal any secret that uses a PCR based sealing policy (such as disk encryption keys used by unattended unlock TPM FDE schemes).
A little-known offshoot of the ATmega series of 8-bit microcontrollers is better, faster, and cheaper than its progenitor.
Swinging for the fencesThe term “particle accelerator” might lead most people to envision long underground tunnels stretching tens of kilometers and rooms full…
If you've been around electronics for a while, you've probably noticed that components like resistors, capacitors, zener diodes and inductors come in some odd values. Looking at the chart above, there seems to be no clear rationale behind the values, but there is a pattern. 47kΩ resistors and 22μF capacitors are…
Introduction to implementing USB devices. Minimal overview of hardware and software with an example with STM32 microcontroller. Also contains an index to very detailed guides for more information.
Formlabs has recently launched the fourth edition of their flagship SLA printer line, the Form 4 . Of course, I jumped on the chance to do a teardown of the printer; I’m grateful that I was able to do the same for the Form 1 , Form 2 , and Form 3 generations. In addition to learning a lot from the process of tearing…
I’m going to start this post off with the obligatory list of links to the previous parts in the series if you’re new here and are interested in seeing the full story: 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , and 9 . This is the tale of how I upgraded my Chumby 8 to run a modern Linux kernel.

Today we're excited to launch Kino, a powerful filmmaking app for beginners and experts alike. As say they say in screenwriting, "Show, Don't tell," so let's walk through a few of the tent-pole features in our huge 1.0 release.
A University of Washington team has developed an artificial intelligence system that lets someone wearing headphones look at a person speaking for three to five

I feel like I used to spend an inordinate amount of time dealing with suspect hard drives. I mean, like, back in high school. These days I almost never do, or on the occasion that I have storage trouble, it's a drive that has completely stopped responding at all and there's little to do besides replacing it. One time…
