Technical writing for developers with Michael Lynch, author of Refactoring English. We cover structuring a book for reader ROI, cutting aggressively, using AI as a teacher instead of a ghostwriter, and a self-publishing toolchain built on Asciidoctor, Nix, and Hugo.
Tim Bird of Sony joins us on Space Grade Linux (SGL) — the ELISA-incubated project bringing embedded Linux to spacecraft. We cover the meta-sgl Yocto layer, fault-tolerant file systems, QEMU radiation simulation, fleet OTA updates, and how Linux already dominates on-orbit compute via Starlink.
In this episode, we go back to the origins of lean in the manufacturing space and learn how it can apply to development.
Learn how Thomas Petazzoni got into Embedded Linux and his thoughts on Buildroot, Open Source, running a small company, etc.
