Learned a little bit about FPGAs from Alan of myStorm today. I'm a long way from clocking it all, but I think a couple of concepts sunk in... I'd like to know more about chip design and hardware, the fundamentals.
The BlackIce Mx looks super fun, an open hardware FPGA dev board. Someone was demoing the NES chips built on one, and Alan showed me an implementation of RISC-V. https://mystorm.uk/mystorm-opensource-fpga-hardware-blackice-mxusing-blackedge/

  In 2016 we decided to setup up the myStorm project in order to build OpenSource FPGA hardware. Several years later we are building the 5th generation of BlackIce Development boards. BlackIce Mx the latest generation of our hardware has been built using BlackEdge open hardware standard which enables the 'Core'

  @neil do you follow @esden (or @esden )? The iCEBreaker open platform looks like a fun way to explore FPGAs too.
  Also @scanlime does cool stuff plus features Tuco who is a very good cat.
