I now basically work on <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/asics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>asics</span></a> and to a much lesser degree <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/fpgas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fpgas</span></a> but in the time around when the M1 came out was a string of R&amp;D programs I started on that got cancelled in succession for "limited business viability" reasons.</p>
Jess (short for Jessica)<p>I suppose an <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a> update is in order, so here goes. The first computer I ever programmed for (and crashed) was a Convex C240 while spending weekday afternoons as a child mostly unsupervised in the cs department at a public university. I know enough <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/fortran" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fortran</span></a> to be dangerous, enough <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>python</span></a> to survive, but make a living working on physical stuff (mostly <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ASICs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ASICs</span></a> in the recent past but with a much bigger project on my hands right now).<br><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/asic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>asic</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/chips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chips</span></a></p>
The Japan Times<p>Japanese Olympians stepping up to the podium in Paris will have more than a medal to be proud of this summer: the carbon footprint of their eco-friendly team kits. <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/olympics/2024/04/18/carbon-footprint-olympic-kits/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">japantimes.co.jp/olympics/2024</span><span class="invisible">/04/18/carbon-footprint-olympic-kits/</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/olympics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>olympics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/2024parisolympics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>2024parisolympics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/climatechange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climatechange</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/emissions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>emissions</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/asics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>asics</span></a></p>
Felix<p>I went to buy new <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>running</span></a> shoes yesterday in preparation of my first <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/marathon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>marathon</span></a> The guy in the shop was very sceptic of my <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/adidas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adidas</span></a> ultraboost 22, which I had used so far as an all purpose shoe after my <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/brooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brooks</span></a> defyance. I ended up with buying <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/asics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>asics</span></a> gel Pursue 9 for the long runs. However I'm now unsure whether I should go on with my plan to use the ultraboost for the marathon itself. Thoughts?</p>
