As someone who has involuntarily descended into the timescales mines, I want to thank the author of https://blog.dave.tf/post/tai64-is-not-tai/ for assuring me that I haven't gone insane.
I'm becoming the "have you considered using a transparency log for that?" guy at work
Whenever I'm trying to use something like redshift it always feels like https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Berserk which is somewhat antithetical to its intended function of improving my sleep.
Shower thought: Since the radius of of geostationary orbit goes up by the third root of planetary mass and planetary mass goes up by the third power of radius, the ratio between the radius of a planet and its GEO is actually constant for different planets of equal sidereal day length and average density
Seriously though, this is the first thing that ticks all the boxes I've been looking for for a project:
- TrustZone support
- Openly documented secure boot
- eMMC for RPMB
- Available and ~affordable (90 EUR)
Quick hack since I've been staring at lots of 64bit pointer values today: Colorized %p for printf(): https://gist.github.com/florolf/55ea7660bdfd737eb788dd7f4fa4ee86
This Quectel GNSS receiver booted up reporting 31°18'22.7"N 120°31'30.7"E as the location. I wonder if this is where the EOL test happened or if it's some random default somebody set. (Or the middle ground: The random position somebody put into their test signal generator)
The last hour of "why the fuck is this behaving differently than on my desktop" was presented by https://github.com/actions/checkout/issues/290
From the "how could this ever work" department, TIL: OpenSSL also uses the supplied CA pool for completing client chains if necessary (and many tools don't really allow you to distinguish between the two, so you end up having to put in client intermediates into the pool that is used to verify server certs. Not much of a problem if your PKI is sane, but still unelegant)
