<Aram> hi.
<Aram> wow, didn't know this channel existed.
Sync_ has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
<Aram> from the wiki I see that there were no successful experiments yet though.
<Aram> I found this place while researching memory for my yet-to-be homebrew computer.
<Aram> it will be done with 74 Series TTL chips, but I don't want to cheat and I'm looking into various ways of manufacturing my own memory.

<azonenberg> Aram: Depends on what you define as "successful"
<azonenberg> the wiki is a little out of date but lithography testing was successful down to 20 microns and experimentally pushed to 5
<azonenberg> this was just metal patterning, I haven't had the time to do transistors yet but they are on the long-term TODO

<Aram> azonenberg: reading your paper I see that you can expose only a very small surface at a time.
<Aram> any progress on that?
<azonenberg> It's an inherent limitation of that technique
<azonenberg> i'm looking at laser direct write as an alternative
<azonenberg> but i'm a full time student working on unrelated stuff
<azonenberg> so work is slow
<Aram> I see.
<Sync> yeah I'm currently trying to make a direct writing system but I just finished my mandatory internship
<azonenberg> internship, fun
<azonenberg> see, i've got something else on my plate
<azonenberg> it's called a dissertation
<Sync> yeah it's fun
<Sync> but consumes time
<Sync> you seem to do something wrong, all the guys doing their dissertations here seem to have too much time on their hands
<azonenberg> Sync: i'm fixing the entire world of EDA and CS on the way
<azonenberg> i get fed up with tools, then replace them
<Sync> ah yeah that takes time
<azonenberg> This gives you an idea of the pace i'm working at
<azonenberg> the first 30sec or so (until may '12) i had a few other people writing a little code since it started out as a class project, but then i deleted all of their code since it sucked
<Sync> ah you are using verilog?
<azonenberg> If you include all of the tools etc
<azonenberg> i've got around 80kloc, half verilog and half C++
<Sync> what are you actually researching?
<azonenberg> The basic premise is that you can make an OS more secure by co-design with the hardware
<azonenberg> blurring the lines of what's software and what's hardware
<azonenberg> in my case things like memory allocation etc are going to be implemented at the RTL level
<azonenberg> and basic access controls and threading
<azonenberg> Which means you end up not needing a kernel
<azonenberg> you can run userspace on bare metal
<Sync> oh, those are things I don't really know much about
