Been a warm couple of days in the kitchen
it's also a project with pretty reasonable ways to verify conformance: testing in an emulator (which I've also been writing github.com/domainos-arc...), and human audit/review - both in terms of the C code and using ghidra to compare both binaries.
And to be clear, generating compatible (other than the inevitable assembly pieces, large parts of the kernel -- maybe the rest of it -- was written in pascal) source isn't even the primary goal. I want to revive this OS and get it running on modern hardware. If I can use an agent to help? hell yeah.
I've been using it to help analyze/name/emit/etc C code from the Domain/OS kernel (github.com/domainos-arc...) for my particular retrocomputing project machine. It's 100% a toil reducer. I had been doing the work, but man was it ever a slog - slow, and soul crushing.
I've seen a few people converging on this workflow, so figured it's time to make a bit more noise about my tool. github.com/domainos-arc... is a command line utility for ghidra, coupled with an http plugin running in ghidra itself, exposing most useful functionality from ghidra to agents.

Being in CDMX for Bad Bunny halftime show: very cool
Cool
Can’t find a dn300 shoebox floppy/harddrive enclosure, so.. as one does
Even if you switch, WF will still bother you periodically :(. Took them years to stop for me
Amazing
Too many black hogs
A tale as old as time. I do remember one place where we had not one but two levels of legacy. Spent so long on v2 that v3 started before v1 fully went away
I admit it took me a few tries before realizing “out of Denton” wasn’t missing from the acronym

This is mostly about auto-instrumentation packages, I hope…
If your name attribute is a string with {python_interpolation} in it, and those interpolated names aren’t also attributes of the span, you’re doing it wrong.
Otel: If your name field has high cardinality, you’re doing it wrong.
What where? Home made?
Time to be politics for a minute because this has been on my mind.
Firing Jimmy Kimmel and Colbert and professors and pilots for speech is not a violation of their first amendment rights. It’s 100% legal. But this is still a first amendment problem. Why? It’s the fear. >>
Just watched it on a flight a couple weeks ago. It’s still so so good.
Crazy think that the thing that gets me to delete tiktok is the move to a US company. I’m -fine- with Chinese surveillance at this point.
Such soreness
