Yes, I still use the same hard disk platter as a drink coaster. But I need more ISA cards in my collection.

This is not a mutual aid post. I am fine. Give your money to people who need it this holiday season.

This is a bit time sensitive; please feel free to share.

Business-wise, I'm in a bit of a hole because a certain service I rely on (not gonna name names... UPS) decided in February to use the "inflation crisis" as an excuse to jack up their service by $100+/year... a year after they raised it by ~$80. In addition, said service has decided to move locations when the lease runs out, and I only found out about this at the end of November. Normally, a move wouldn't be a problem. In my case, the move will require me to spend an additional $100 to update some documents with the New Jersey Department of the Treasury. Whee, bureaucracy! :'D

So, I'm looking for a bit of paid work (low to mid hundreds of USD) before year's end in an attempt to fill this unexpected hole for my own peace of mind. Again, I am not in financial trouble. Do NOT spend your money on me instead of a mutual aid post. I'm looking for basic work only.

Most comfortable with embedded Rust and FPGA design using Amaranth HDL.

Small things I can think of include:

  1. Porting your Shiny New FPGA Board to Amaranth
  2. Getting you started with embedded Rust.
  3. Getting you started with verification tools with yosys-smtbmc and symbiyosys for your next FPGA/ASIC design.
  4. I am willing to write C as well (and actually do enjoy bare-metal embedded C- Linux kernel dev, not so much).
