del.icio.us: y.ah.oo! (blogentry at del.icio.us)

...getting photographed
This afternoon I got a visit from Sabina Theijs, she’s a photographer working on a project to capture Nieuwe Garde, a network of creative individuals I’m also involved in…
Don’t you just love that camera? That’s a Hasselblad indeed… in true analog excellence… If everything goes according to plan, I’ll be getting scans of the images she made somewhere this week.
OpenSPARC: chip design goes Open Source
Sun decided to Open Source it’s Niagara (UltraSPARC T1) chip design
“While there’s a good deal of skill in the instantiation, a silicon chip these days is “just” the compiled version of a software design. A chip like the UltraSPARC T1 is actually a huge Verilog program compiled to atoms instead of assembly language.”

“You don’t know where it’s going to go,” said Sun’s CEO Scott McNealy, during a product launch event in New York. “That’s the beauty of it.”

“In the coming months we plan to post source code, documentation, and tools based on our 64-bit, multithreaded UltraSPARC T1 processor. The UltraSPARC T1’s CoolThreads technology has set a whole new standard for the industry in terms of throughput and energy efficiency, and now you can join the revolution. It’s worth a peek; it’s free. Welcome to the world of 64-bit computing, and 32 threads.”
Damn, you gotta love this! I’m a huge fan of OpenBSD on SUN hardware… seems with this, that this is a combination I’ll be able to use for a long time ahead :-) Open Source software on Open Source hardware… it’s a beautiful world after all ;-)
