🎮📚"Tempest vs. Tempest" is a riveting saga where someone decided to write an entire book dissecting 40-year-old and 30-year-old code like it’s the Rosetta Stone of gaming. 🧠💤 Because, clearly, nothing screams "must-read" like an in-depth analysis of archaic assembly language. 🙄

Hello XDNA!

We're documenting how to program AMD's NPUs in Ryzen AI chips.

Our website covers the ISA, register files, operation latencies, and hand-optimized assembly kernels for tensor contractions.

Measured single-compute-tile throughput:
• XDNA1 (Ryzen 7 8700G): 398 BF16 GFLOPS (86% of peak)
• XDNA2 (Ryzen AI Max PRO 390): 1760 BFP16 GFLOPS (95% of peak)

By the way, the only machine language I have seen (not counting byte code) that is _friendly_ and not just not scary is that of the PDP-11.

I'm pretty sure the same goes for the PDP-10.

I don't think I posted this before... A while ago I reverse-engineered the game Lode Runner (1982) for the Apple ][. The result is a literate document, which is a document you run through a filter one way to get compilable code, and another way to get a PDF explaining how it all works.

You can get the PDF and the rest here: https://github.com/RobertBaruch/lode_runner_reveng

I'm sure I'm miles behind here – but I have just noticed that #CodeWars now supports x64 assembly using #NASM as one of the language choices (there's also a #RISCV option too). I know most "normal" people won't want to solve #CodeKata puzzles in #AssemblyLanguage – but if you're interested in the low-level side of things like me, then these are quite fun!

If I wanted to build my own #softwaredefinedradio more or less from scratch with an #arduino or similar SBC and a bread board, what would I need to know? For context, I have my eye on building my own #SDR for #VHF and #UHF but not #HF or #SHF ham bands. Building it myself, what sorts of resource constraints am I likely to run into? Links to books and other resources welcome. Feel free to #explainitlikeimfive SDR theory and practical limitations.

I tinker in #assemblylanguage and #C.
