I can finally reveal some research I've been involved with over the past year or so.
We (@redford, @mrtick and I) have reverse engineered the PLC code of NEWAG Impuls EMUs. These trains were locking up for arbitrary reasons after being serviced at third-party workshops. The manufacturer argued that this was because of malpractice by these workshops, and that they should be serviced by them instead of third parties.

We at @ohno really value education and sharing what we know for the benefit of the community, so we started making some video courses. Some will be free, some will be paid, but if you sign up for a course @jamieotelsberg will send you an invite to our Discord!
Hope to see you there!

Don't cross the Amazon picket line, folks. Support the unions instead.
I respect and appreciate my PhD advisor very much and she is infinitely better than many of the horror stories I've heard about PhD advisors, but there is simply no way she or anyone else can persuade me that qualifying exams are anything other than a hazing ritual
