Well, the data is coming out corrupted and I'm not sure where yet (if it's in my gateware, software, or the transport somewhere).
But here's first light on the SERDES ILA core capturing what should be an Ethernet frame. The preamble is bogus and I'm not sure how much I trust whatever comes after it either.

Pleased to share that my paper, "Practitioners at the Limit: Bereavement, Mockery and Ideology in Response to Crisis" is now available as a preprint on arxiv. https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.30667

Fascists, cryptobros, young men who play tons of video games and have very little ethical thinking skill and frame everything as a competition to be won, seasoned software engineers, accelerationists, business guys, Business Guy Grifters, hyper-neoliberal technocrats, wannabe software engineers, kids who dream of creating video games, product designers who want to prototype things, capitalist hangers-on and investmentbros who are looking for the next gamble for their money, Chinese tech company employees, third world techies who use these tools to be able to play at the rich countries tech industry table, edgy young men who want to “decensor" everything including open models, tech enthusiasts who want to try every new thing.
And very, _very_ few women. And very, very few experts.

I'm giving Proton Sheets a try. I do like CryptPad (for a number of reasons) but there are a few things that bug me (mostly the bugs) so I figure testing what Proton has is worth a shot.
(I'd still like to find a self-hosted spreadsheet application at some point.)

So.. I have a theory that burned-out coders prefer AI coding agents. Because at the point of burn-out (and beyond), you just stop giving a fuck. You might still like and enjoy your craft, but when it comes to your job (whether that's proprietary or free software), you just want to get through the day and get it done. And if an LLM helps you accomplish that, regardless of ethics or maintainability or boring button-mashing, so be it.
