I don't know who to tell since this is niche, but I wrote a golang module to indent assembly language programs written in Merlin. I'm mostly proud of the name "merlingo". Get it? Merlin? Go? Lingo? Is this thing on? github.com/digarok/merlingo Anyway, part of a larger tool I use.

Look, I don’t want to punish anyone’s success, but the wealthy have been getting a free ride at the expense of the middle class for too long. I intend to pass one of the biggest middle class tax cuts ever — paid for by making those at the top pay their fair share.

We can officially mention this now! WDC's 6502 core is now on plastic! The team at PragmatIC is delightful and they have some great, ever-changing technology. Looking forward to a continued partnership for 65xx based thin film solutions.
Would you like to read about how we took the iconic 6502 microprocessor that was the brains of computers like the Apple II and early Commodores, laid out and manufactured the chip in less than two weeks? hubs.ly/H0VS9Pw0 #flexible #semiconductor #foundry
