This month I released USBSID-Pico v1.3 pcb via PCBWay and Retro8BitStore and yesterday firmware version v0.5.0-BETA. The new pcb now supports mixed MOS6581 / MOS8580 chips (voltage) at the same time and new firmware brings a lot of tweaks and improvements making Commodore64 digitunes play better on Windows.

USBSID-Pico is a RPi Pico (RP2040/W RP2350/W) based board for interfacing one or two MOS SID chips and/or hardware SID emulators over (WEB)USB with your computer, phone, ASID supporting player or USB midi controller.

Repo: https://github.com/mochilang/mochi I'm building Mochi, a small programming language with a custom VM and a focus on querying structured data (CSV, JSON, and eventually graph) in a unified and lightweight way. It started as an experiment in writing LINQ-style queries over real datasets and grew into a full language with: - declarative queries built into the language - a register-based VM designed for analysis an…

looks super cool for some quick data filtering and manipulation

I’m the technical co-founder of Visibil (https://visibil.ai), an LLMO and SEO automation platform. It’s unique in that (unlike similar solutions) it doesn’t have a brittle JS-based content “hijacker” (which normally pulls the content changes from the SaaS’ database and therefore stops if you stop paying), but rather it updates the user’s CMS.

I'm still working on Habitat. It's a free and open source, self-hosted platform for communities to discover their local area. The plan is for it to be federated, but that's a while off yet. I've made some good progress recently. I've added the ability to temporarily freeze user accounts, custom WYSIWYG editing for sidebar content and functionality that allows the administrator to set site-wide announcements to appear and disappear at specific dates/times. I also got some great feedback from users of my instance of it for my local town and so fixed some bugs.

I am working on a next-gen software composition analysis tool that can identify malicious open source packages through code analysis. Adopts a policy as code (CEL) approach to build security guardrails against risky OSS components using opinionated policies.
