PCIe update: I'm now able to parse incoming InitFC1-* DLLPs and store away the credit counts in a register (which I don't actually use for anything yet), and emit a singular InitFC1-P DLLP of my own
Next step will be writing the rest of the setup logic so I can actually fully bring up VC0, then start sending UpdateFC idle DLLPs at regular intervals to keep the link alive when I'm not sending traffic.

Love it when I start writing a brief post to blab out here, and it starts becoming a list of ideas, and I quickly realize a blog post needs to happen 🔥

Every post you write is first read by a machine. Should the nature of writing change to accommodate that? I look at the pros and cons of adopting an AI-friendly grammar linkedin.com/posts/jonippolito

"Writing your idea down is not starting the damn game. Writing a design document is not starting the damn game. Assembling a team is not starting the damn game. Even doing graphics or music is not starting the damn game. It’s easy to confuse “preparing to start the damn game” with “starting the damn game”. Just remember: a damn game can be played, and if you have not created something that can be played, it’s not a damn game!"

My favorite video game company is currently making news because they admitted to falling to AI hype and pushing it on employees even though they’ve (predictably) seen no actual benefits.
I am sad about it but, in good news, writing with a fountain pen continues to be an extreme delight.
I developed carpal tunnel nine years ago, and handwriting would always be a stolen joy in the brief moments before pain would start again. I have been feeling nearly 0 pain in the last two weeks despite filling 50 pages. I feel like I’ve been given a new lease on life in a small way.

I'm kind of fascinated by how quickly the tech world shifted to using "allowlist/denylist" instead of "whitelist/blacklist". I guess part of it is that "allowlist" is more clearly descriptive of its purpose. maybe I should start specifying my sexual orientation as "suck my cock and I'll step on yours, or the other way around is ok if I like you" (which is "3" in the ISO standard enum). after writing that out I'm not sure I should …

I write in haste—it was hard to stop reading and start writing. This week I found myself pursuing a writer who makes an art of pursuing others, and I got caught up in the chase.
