  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • m1n1

    A bootloader and experimentation playground for Apple Silicon

  • Yes! The shim is called m1n1 and it actually is also the bootloader that Asahi Linux uses. You can run csrutil disable && nvram boot-args=-v in recovery mode from an Asahi machine and it'll go into a 5-second countdown on boot during which you can connect to the proxy via USB! Then you can run Python experiment scripts, use an interactive shell, or just load a Linux kernel to test from the host.

    Curated list of resources for Embedded and Low-level development in the Rust programming language

  • I was just wondering why you think rust wouldn't be a good fit because people are already writing whole operating systems in that language (RedoxOS) and it is popular in the embedded world. Here a few projects: https://github.com/rust-embedded/awesome-embedded-rust

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
