It's ternary time! Work it out and check the alt text afterwards.

I continued my experiments on Mecrisp-Ternary, a balanced #ternary processor for #FPGA including a custom #Forth implementation, by exploring cooperative multitasking and interrupts on this special architecture. Ideas for balanced ternary gray code are included, too! For the curious : >gray ( n -- x ) dup 1 rshift not 3sum ;

I am happy to announce Mecrisp-Ternary, an experiment to implement the #Forth programming language on a custom balanced #ternary architecture with variable width. Instruction set emulator is included, #FPGA implementation is coming soon: https://codeberg.org/Mecrisp/mecrisp-ternary

One nice thing about (standard balanced) #ternary #logic is that: if we use −1 for ⊥, 1 for ⊤, and 0 for the third value, then p∧q ⇔ min(p,q), p∨q ⇔ max(p,q) and ¬p ⇔ -1*sgn(p)

For those of you in Europe that just had #DST end, I hope you remembered to update your clocks and watches. My watch already updated itself correctly, as you can see. 😉

As fun as the previous face was, I decided I wanted a bit more information displayed.

So I switched to this alternate ternary dial (also made by my friend).

The colours are all customisable. I have the minutes in a different colour to the hour so that I can locate them quickly at a glance, as I tend to decode them first (given I usually know the hour already).

This face can also show a step count but that is way too much effort to decode right now! 🤣

Quanta Magazine writer, Stephen Ornes makes a case for ternary computing in 2024, surveying recent efforts to revive tri-state systems, and their advantages over their binary counterparts in certain types of computation.

Want the #localized or base #websiteTitle (if either exists) and a #fallback value (like host) in your copyright? Use the Or #ViewHelper or #ternary #operator in #Fluid! See my #sitepackage example. Is there a way to concatenate more than 2 values? #TYPO3
