| schestowitz | <p>That’s the suggestion put forward for community discussion by a prominent Ubuntu developer. The reasoning is that since Nautilus lets us create/extract commonly-compressed formats (including the ubiquitous .zip and tarballs) shipping a separate app that does the same thing (albeit with more formats) is unnecessary.</p> | Dec 21 09:02 |

| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-www.bunniestudios.com | Towards a More Open Secure Element Chip « bunnie's blog | Dec 21 09:04 | |
| schestowitz | <p>“Secure Element” (SE) chips have traditionally taken a very closed-source, NDA-heavy approach. Thus, it piqued my interest when an early-stage SE chip startup, Cramium (still in stealth mode), approached me to advise on open source strategy. This blog post explains my reasoning for agreeing to advise Cramium, and what I hope to accomplish in the future.</p> | Dec 21 09:04 |
| schestowitz | <p>As an open source hardware activist, I have been very pleased at the progress made by the eFabless/Google partnership at creating an open-to-the-transistors physical design kit (PDK) for chips. This would be about as open as you can get from the design standpoint. However, the partnership currently supports only lower-complexity designs in the 90nm to 180nm technology nodes. Meanwhile, Cramium is planning | Dec 21 09:04 |
| schestowitz | to tape out their security chip in the 22nm node. A 22nm chip would be much more capable and cost-effective than one fabricated in 90nm (for reference, the RP2040 is fabricated in 40nm, while the Raspberry Pi 4’s CPU is fabricated in 28nm), but it would not be open-to-the-transistors.</p> | Dec 21 09:04 |
