Atari 2600 hardware design: making something out of (almost) nothing

Recently over the holiday break, I became interested in the 2600’s hardware architecture and started reading everything that I could find about it. I knew that it was some kind of 6502-based system, and I’d heard mentions of “racing the beam”, but that’s as far as my knowledge went. I was shocked to discover how primitive the 2600 hardware was, even compared to contemporary 6502 systems like the Apple II, Commodore PET, and even Atari’s own 8-bit computers. The 2600 was a bit before my time – I’m from 1984 – and I’ve never even seen one in person. While I understand how important and influential the 2600 really was, I find the games and technology just a bit too primitive to enjoy today, whereas games for the NES I can still happily play today. I’m sure if you grew up with the 2600, you’d disagree.

Open d’Australie 2023 – Novak Djokovic : “The race for Grand Slam titles ? That’s why I keep…

Le favori de l’Open d’Australie 2023 est-il à 100% ? Mercredi, Novak Djokovic disputait un match d’entraînement contre Daniil Medvedev. Une occasion de prendre des repères et de monter en puissance à Melbourne, à quelques jours du début du premier grand rendez-vous de la saison. Mais voilà, Nole est apparu diminué. Touché à l’ischio-jambier gauche, le Serbe a été contraint de stopper sa séance après 36 minutes passées sur le court… La veille du tirage au sort et à quelques jours du début de l’épreuve, cette gêne tombait au mauvais moment pour l’ancien numéro 1 mondial. Finalement, ce dernier a pu jouer tranquillement vendredi mais le doute est là avant de débuter mardi contre Roberto Carballes Baena. “J’espère que ça ne sera pas un problème” a déclaré Djoko lors du media day.

abigen gem – Application Binary Interface (ABI) Contract Generator for Ruby

Hello, in the ongoing crypto winter ethereum & co. programming series I put together some more gems. The new abigen gem lets you generate ready-to-use (blockchain) contract services / function calls for ethereum & co. via application binary inferfaces (abis). Bonus: Via the new natspec gem you can even “auto-include” nat(ural) spec(ification) comments / documentation in the generated ruby code. See the pre-packaged auto-generated ruby classes in the ethlite-contracts gem, for some first real-world samples.

Mental Wellness Month at Open Mainframe Project

Mental Wellness Month at Open Mainframe Project

“January is Mental Wellness Month, and I think it’s the perfect time to talk about Neurodiversity. Simply said, neurodiversity is the difference among all of our brains, like fingerprints…no two are alike. Neurodivergency includes specific differences, such as autism, ADHD, anxiety or tic disorders (like Tourette’s). While neurodivergency is not a mental health or mental wellness […]

gcl @ Savannah: GCL 2.6.14 has been released

Greetings!  The GCL team is happy to announce the release of version 2.6.14, the latest achievement in the ‘stable’ (as opposed to ‘development’) series.  Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/gcl for downloading information.

This is a cleanup release with respect to 2.6.13, with the primary goal of supporting current gcc-12 signed integer tree-vrp optimizations, on by default at -O2 or higher.

There are a few portability fixes: X86_64_RELOC_SIGNED_1 support on macosx, centos readline/configure fixes, and R_RISCV_CALL_PLT support on riscv64.

A fix to decode-universal-time is included, which is backward

incompatible with a workaround in currently released maxima.  The

gcl_cleanup… and/or master maxima branches in git have been adjusted accordingly.

‘si::help has been imported into the “USER” package.

Open d’Australie 2023 – Stan Wawrinka est à Melbourne et près à signer encore des gros coups !

Stan is back ? On va vite le savoir lors de ce premier Grand Chelem de la saison où le Suisse Stan Wawrinka affrontera au 1er tour de l’Open d’Australie le Slovaque Alex Molcan (54e). Blessé aux ischios gauche lors de l’US Open 2022 contre le Français Corentin Moutet, le Suisse Stan Wawrinka revient en 2023 à l’aube du début du premier Grand Chelem de l’année, avec des ambitions certaines et une envie de regagner au plus vite le haut du classement. En effet, classé actuellement à la 139e place du classement ATP, Wawrinka se dit près à signer encore des gros coups : “Forcément, l’objectif, c’est de gagner, un maximum de matches, c’est aussi simple que ça dans le sport,” dit-il. “J’ai envie de garder ce que j’ai ressenti sur les derniers tournois de l’année où même si j’ai perdu certains matches le niveau était bon. J’ai envie de pouvoir amener ce niveau tout au long de l’année, faire ça à chaque tournoi et si j’y arrive, je sais que les opportunités de faire des gros trucs viendront.”
