Really excited to be able to reveal @lowRISC's closer collaboration with Google and ETH Zurich. lowrisc.org/blog/2019/05/onw… New board members and an exciting development roadmap made possible by the support and funding from Google. Also, we're hiring! lowrisc.org/jobs/

Just merged @golang x/sys module with latest #RiscV assembly code and now the GC works! Successfully built go-Jsonnet and a webserver with Echo(echo.labstack.com/guide). @golangnews @jessfraz @SiFive @palmer_dabbelt @justincormack @risc_v @marco_peereboom @labstack #golang

I can’t believe what I’m seeing! While running a facial recognition pilot, one man (understandably imho) covered himself up. The police forced him to show his face (& then fined him for disorderly conduct). This is dangerous & terrifying.

Our FCCM short paper is now on arXiv:
Yosys+nextpnr: an Open Source Framework from Verilog to Bitstream for Commercial FPGAs.
David Shah, Eddie Hung, Clifford Wolf, Serge Bazanski, Dan Gisselquist, Miodrag Milanović.

Not quite the silver bullet, certainly not yet, in compute. Performance v cost (key driver still post-Moore’s Law) is fast being advanced with hardware such as FPGAS & numerous software/architecture developments. #Nanotechnology is speaking louder in compute but has a way to go.

You might not be aware, but SymbiFlow can synthesize @linuxfoundation #Linux and @ZephyrIoT capable @RISC_V SoCs today. Participate in @GSoC - applications close in 5 days so be fast! - and help us open up #FPGA tooling to accelerate innovation in FPGAs: summerofcode.withgoogle.com/…

I feel like if @intel and @alteracorp want to really shake things up they should apply their usual love of Open Source to FPGA bitstreams and support open synthesis and place+route for their FPGAs. Sure, patents and IP and stuff, but they've a big arsenal to defend against trolls
Really excited by Project Trellis - prjtrellis.readthedocs.io/en… - which aims to create a fully open source toolchain for ECP5 based @latticesemi parts. I already had an ECP5-5G and just picked up the regular Versa board too. This is perfect for some of my pet project plans :)

One-size-fits-all #investment models don’t suit #Nanotechnology due to horizontal & enhancing/enabling characteristics. Research, government initiatives, collaborations, JV’s, corporate venture, #tech licensing, equity/debt and M&A all need to be considered within a nuanced mix

Find it hard to keep track of all the great Open Source Silicon events? Don't worry. We have collected them all at fossi-foundation.org/events
First up is @LatchUpConf followed by Week of Open Source Hardware (WOSH) together with @risc_v @eurolab4hpc and @pulp_platform

Today is the best second Tuesday of the month as we once again bring you the @librecores newsletter with the latest news from the buzzing world of free and open source silicon featuring @risc_v @OpenPiton @SpinalHDL @pulp_platform @WesternDigiCTO and more medium.com/librecores/el-cor…

They've done it. Congrats to @SeraphimCapital portfolio company @iceyefi for the success of their mission. Following ICEYE-X1, the world's first SAR satellite under 100kg in mass, ICEYE-X2's use cases will include flood extent monitoring, vessel detection and field segmentation.
Confirmed - ICEYE-X2 SAR satellite has separated successfully. Communications with the satellite have been established at 19:58 CET, December 3rd 2018. Thank you @SpaceX @SpaceflightInc! Launch success! Read more here: hubs.ly/H0fLXTv0

.@awscloud has also created a new chip, a “AWS Inferentia,” a latency-sensitive high-throughput processor for #ml inferencing. Supports all major #ai frameworks, can be attached to #EC2 instances and also available with #SageMaker — @ajassy #AWSreInvent2018

Mission 1 was a huge success. They have secured or have offers for £4m+, continue to engage with our corporate partners, have hired 15 new staff and have set up several new offices in the UK #SpaceTech #Mission2
Reconfigure v0.18.3 is released 🎉 We're getting closer to adopting our reworked compiler, read more here: buff.ly/2ScPsOs #FPGA #golang #startup #acceleration

"future systems have to use lower clock frequencies to keep power consumption down, and use larger number of cores to push performance up." sounds very familiar.. #FPGAs nextplatform.com/2018/10/10/…
