Oxide’s Compensation Model: How is it Going? / Oxide Reflecting on how our compensation model is going

So we're outsourcing initial job interviews to AI now? You'd think all the productivity gains would free up humans for the important things, like interviewing our future co-workers.

At this pace, every candidate will need their own interview bot to keep up. Soon, bots will be interviewing bots.

Spying on the Mesh with a Raspberry Pi and GNU Radio
YouTube video by Jeff Geerling Spying on the Mesh with a Raspberry Pi and GNU Radio

Hacking the Mesh with SDR: I took a Raspberry Pi laptop and HackRF to SFO last week to see if I could decode messages at Open Sauce.

While it wasn't complete success, I learned a lot about GNU Radio, Meshtastic, and even tracking airplanes with ADS-B! www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_lb...

I am astounded that white hat hackers are fans of my book on #embedded #Linux. Thank you to Andrew Bellini for amplifying. Check out his amazing #IoT and #hardware #hacking course and DEF CON talk.

Tau5 will use SQLite for its storage.

Tau5 file saves will be a single SQLite db file that contains all the composition information and also embedded assets such as samples and data riffs.

Sharing your live coded masterpiece is going to be as simple as sharing a single file.

My recommendation for anyone wanting to write their first tech book is: multiply your expectations of how much effort it will take by *at least* 3.

"But I have realistic expectations" - cool, multiply them by 3

"It can't be that bad" - sweet summer child, multiply them by 10
