Hi, I'm an embedded systems engineer with experience in software, hardware, IoT, and machine learning. Seeking innovative roles from ultra-low power remote applications to mid-range edge compute, up to HPC.

My latest roles have been in full-stack edge AI R&D, memory controller firmware dev, and chip bring-up/testing. I'm passionate about modular synthesis and tinkering with all sorts of circuits and DSP. Currently upskilling in analog PCB design and refining my abilities in FPGA development. Also WIP on a 3D-printed robot arm to practice control systems and actuation.

Also neuronormative individuals sometimes mistake neurodivergent usage of language for LLM-speak which might have similar pattern matching schema reinforced
datameta··on ICE Deports 3 U.S. Citizen Children Held Incommunicado Prior to the Deportation
This is like claiming that getting conscripted into the Russian Federation Armed Forces is a direct consequence of entering illegally

So is their life forfeit now, and the respective goverment absolved of responsibility?

datameta··on The Last of Their Kind
Whatever their relative impacts, they are a negative feedback cycle.
datameta··on Saturn's moon Titan could harbor life, but only a tiny amount
If I'm not mistaken, they are water-ammonia mixture down to -97C, so it would a boon for our understanding of life had it evolved in such conditions.
datameta··on Darwin's children drew all over the “On the Origin of Species” manuscript (2014)
Novgorod was the only major East Slavic settlement to avoid destruction or subjugation by the Golden Horde, so I think it is akin to a boy from a well-to-do family in medieval Avignon or Strasbourg learning to read and write. Meaning, not just any city or any family in the mid/late 13th century had the need or means for such schooling, but as pointed out in this thread it was more likely in Novgorod.
datameta··on Saturn's moon Titan could harbor life, but only a tiny amount
Speaking of ocean, water is mentioned several times in discussing Titan but the hydrologic cycle analogue consists of various hydrocarbons.

But to the fourth point, I wonder to what extent radiation is a factor in mutation of biological material. It turns out Titan has a rather low surface irradiation coefficient due to being rather distant from Saturn's radiation belt, a weak induced magnetosphere (rare for moons!), and the ions are mostly water-based coming from Enceladus while Jupiter's radiation belts are largely sulphur ions coming from Io.

datameta··on Sweden Investigates New Cable Break Under Baltic Sea
He was actually one of the presiding members (forgot their title) who was completing his term. He got emotional over the gravity of the transition. To shed tears is not a mark of weakness. It serves as that signal only for the emotionally repressed.
datameta··on Sweden Investigates New Cable Break Under Baltic Sea
Yes, he spoke on it at the Munich Security Conference, to frequent applause
datameta··on Multiple Russia-aligned threat actors actively targeting Signal Messenger
At the start of the invasion in Ukraine it was possible for a while to listen to unencrypted radio comms from Russian convoys, hosted online live.
datameta··on My Time at MIT
I wish this was explained more thoroughly at the age where "prestige" is a driving factor of applying to institutions. My college experience was devoid of obvious/visible/present intellectual stimulation, as a data point.
datameta··on Watch R1 "think" with animated chains of thought
That just makes them higher order coordinates, no?
datameta··on 50 Years of Travel Tips
I would imagine that is practically a separate category of tips
datameta··on 50 Years of Travel Tips
Right. This reads like a person who doesn't realize their ethnic visage is plot-armor, or that smiling maybe works for a different reason than they think it does.

Doesn't read as friendly in most places (we're talking out of context on the street), it reads as aloof or menacing/unknown factor. Being a white male with confidence takes care of the first assumption and leaves the second.

datameta··on 50 Years of Travel Tips
Yeah, while I did like the Laser-Back strategy of going to the most remote location first and meandering back to the departure city, reading the names at the bottom shows only one phenotype of person wrote/edited this.
datameta··on Ancient-DNA study identifies originators of Indo-European language family
More concise and nuanced but interestingly with a lower information density.

Seeking opportunities where systems thinking and the ability to bridge unexpected technical domains create compound value.

datameta··on Berkeley Researchers Replicate DeepSeek R1's Core Tech for Just $30: A Small Mod
Not sure if this a trivial or naive thought - is that perhaps because in non-discrete ideas there is more granularity of information encoded compared to a numerical solution?

Separatelt, but on a related note - do we need analog or quantum computing to "truly" scale?

datameta··on Chinese Vessel Cuts Taiwan Internet Cable in Apparent Sabotage
Destroying international infrastructure like undersea cable should carry the weight of attacking a nation's actual infrastructure.

I agree though, that this is a clear provocation by China to drum up justification for broader retaliation. Typical Russian false-flag playbook.

What a time to be alive.
datameta··on Quantum teleportation achieved over existing internet cable
Shoot, I meant to direct link. Might be too late to change it?
datameta··on The unbearable slowness of being: Why do we live at 10 bits/s?
As far as I know, our wetware builds the hardware as the software runs. Like some kind of self-agglomerating and pruning FPGA

datameta··on Romanian court annuls result of presidential election first round
Flooding the channels is step one. Construction of the fake reality follows. I also recommend that documentary, it details "how we got here".
datameta··on Romanian court annuls result of presidential election first round
Yes, it is known as Hypernormalization.
datameta··on Romanian court annuls result of presidential election first round
You seem to be discussing the Romanian election in a vacuum divorced from the reality that Putin is doing everything in his power to sow chaos in Europe because the calculus just works for him.
