Life hack: If you want something mansplained to you, just rant about it on linkedin

Some replies to my rant that our standard cell vendors got blocking and non-blocking assignment wrong in their simulation models and everything broke with Verilator

Verilog is poison

@acqrel had this experience recently, and it certainly isn't the first time <10 LOC of Verilog has taken out a Spade project that otherwise would have worked on the first attempt.

Luckily, I think @ethan's recent changes make it possible to instantiate PLLs directly in Spade without needing a Verilog shim, just a stub

Oh and of course, thanks @yrabbit and others for the actual work on supporting the gowin FPGAs in nextpnr. My contribution here is just calling nextpnr-himbaechel with some arguments :)

Added support for #gowin #fpga to Swim - the Spade build tool

If you have one of these laying around you can just swim install-tools and then swim init --board tangnano9k or 5k

With this update, we're also no longer on an ancient oss-cad-suite which should give a nice area and fmax improvement on other FPGAs

God damnit, I have once again spent several hours debugging issues in CI that were because arch symlinks /bin/sh -> /bin/bash so if something is using bashisms on my machine I won't notice until CI

If I call /bin/sh I want /bin/sh ๐Ÿ˜ฑ ๐Ÿ˜

@acqrel Well actually, the 3d render wasn't fully done beforehand. We added support for half size boxes, billboards with different views from different angles etc. during the jam

Made ~~Minecraft~~ a forklift game over the weekend on two "networked" #fpga s

All built in https://spade-lang.org/ and not a processor in sight :) Everything except @acqrel's 3d renderer was written over the past 48 hours

One thing I'm extra excited about is the new blinky for software developers section in which I attempt to describe the way hardware works by how it can be "emulated" in software

If you're a software dev curious about #fpga and #asic I'd love to hear what you think of it!

Can you beat my record of 3 seaweed in janky floppy fish ๐Ÿ  ?

More seriously, I have spent a bunch of time recently updating https://play.spade-lang.org/ to support multiple presets, better input handling and a bunch more

I've also started updating the documentation, starting with a new tutorial that should hopefully make it easier to get started with the language https://docs.spade-lang.org/
