alan_o: Thats what I was referring to. I couldn't wait 2 hours for a bash prompt. I really hope he used a computer simulator to simulate the ATmega simulating the ARM - I would *not* want to debug that on hardware. |
# 18:44:39 |
alan_o |
imMute: yeah, that's what I figured too |
# 18:44:45 |
alan_o |
It's kind of a strange article though |
# 18:45:09 |
alan_o |
I mean, for one, a guy with the level of skill required to do something like that, but then he put spaces in his URL for the webpage? |
# 18:45:22 |
imMute |
if he wrote an emulator for the ATmega, he's certainly capable of writing an emulator for the desktop |
# 18:45:26 |
alan_o |
That's the kind of stuff Windows users do :) |
# 18:45:29 |
imMute |
people have fields of experience |
# 18:45:35 |
alan_o |
That's absolutely true |
# 18:45:54 |
alan_o |
but one does seem to find trends among hackers |
# 18:46:13 |

I'm not saying it's fake or anything, don't get me wrong |

I'm a decent programmer, I've spent time doing some webdev, but my HTML/CSS/JS is absolutely horrid and I can't design for shit. hence why my website is ... "lacking" |
# 18:48:00 |
alan_o |
yeah, I'm in the same boat. I did HTML back when programmers made the internet (before the artists took it over), and I'm still at about that skill level in web design :) |

I don't think there's any way other than an emulator to do a project like that, as Linux requires to be able to run from RAM, and if your RAM bit-banged, you're out of luck. |
# 18:50:54 |
alan_o |
Or at least some kind of software layer, maybe not necessarily an emulator |
# 18:50:59 |
alan_o |
Now that would be an interesting project. |
# 18:51:20 |
alan_o |
Software MMU + External RAM access.... |
# 18:51:22 |
alan_o |
Well |
# 18:51:39 |
alan_o |
I mean it'd still be emulated. Even if you were emulating your own instruction set |
# 18:52:14 |
imMute |
emulation sounds like a fun project, but I wouldnt want to do it |
# 18:53:24 |
alan_o |
Yeah, I have two friends who have independently of each other designed emulators. There must be a certain type of hacker that's drawn to it. |
# 18:54:24 |
alan_o |
one did 8-bit NES, and the other has done a few different game consoles with varying levels of support (of course, old game consoles). |
