  • The Inmos Legacy - transputer links and SpaceWire
    After reading https://forums.theregister.com/forum/all/2022/05/06/pi_pico_transputer_code/, I was looking for information related to transputers and found this page.

    The point-to-point technology to link transputers was formalised in the IEEE 1355 standard. This was further developed under the ESA into SpaceWire, which is now designed into a number of space missions under development in Europe, the USA and Japan. A key player in developing SpaceWire was Paul Walker from the transputer team whose company, 4Links, is now selling SpaceWire test equipment.

    XMOS mentioned on the page can be found on https://www.xmos.ai

    Psiram (formerly EsoWatch) provides the essential realism on topics like esotericism, religion, health, and helps you to save money. Psiram presents false prophets, ideologists, quacksalvers, and snake oil salesmen.

  • Emacs /ˈiːmæks/, originally named EMACS (an acronym for "Editor MACroS"), is a family of text editors
    Emacs /ˈiːmæks/, originally named EMACS (an acronym for "Editor MACroS"), is a family of text editors that are characterized by their extensibility. The manual for the most widely used variant, GNU Emacs, describes it as "the extensible, customizable, self-documenting, real-time display editor". Development of the first Emacs began in the mid-1970s, and work on its direct descendant, GNU Emacs, continues actively; the latest version is 28.2, released in September 2022.

  • MakerLisp
    The MakerLisp Machine is a portable, modular computer system, designed to recapture the feel of classic computing, with modern hardware. The CPU is a Zilog eZ80 running at 50 MHz, which supports up to 16 MB of zero wait state RAM. The system software is 'MakerLisp', a 'Lisp on Bare Metal' system that allows direct access to system hardware, while providing the concise expressive power of a functionally complete Lisp environment. The machine is also an ideal platform for an extended CP/M. A full system configuration is pictured here, with CPU, expansion board, USB keyboard, and VGA display, in the laser-cut wood 'MakerStation' enclosure.
