So long, Twitter, and congratulations for your majestic $44 billion funeral.
What's happening, as you liked to ask? It's now happening, at least for me, on Mastodon and LinkedIn:

Be surprised how simple it is to generate an image for BeagleBone using the @yoctoproject:

For people who live near Orange in France, and are interested in a general introduction (in French) to Free Software.
By the way, not sure all the pictures on the pamphlet made by Café Jardin correspond to Free Software. There are some icons I don't recognize.

About containers, I strongly recommend this eye opening "Containers – A Look Under the Hood" talk from Gerlof Langeveld:
static.sched.com/hosted_file…
This shows how standard interfaces allow to control which system resources applications can access, in a shared or private way.
The video of the @Elektor Engineering Insights Panel I participated to yesterday, with @stuartcording and Ricardo Mendoza from #pantacor is now available on YouTube: youtube.com/watch?v=c9KwwUzv…
It turns out you can use container technology without the heavyweight solutions!
Here is an update of our diagram following the size of the PREEMPT_RT patchset for the Linux kernel. We can see the size bouncing back a bit with Linux 6.0.
See lwn.net/Articles/909980/ about the last remaining bits.
Can't wait to see which changes will make it into version 6.1!

I was in Austria last week, and apparently it rained quite a lot the days before. It's mushroom season!
Last week, I was teaching our new embedded Linux course at a customer in Austria, and everything was perfect: passionate engineers, great organization and an amazing venue. In particular, the coffee was excellent and brewed by a Linux distribution generated by the @yoctoproject.
What about trying Mastodon to share quick news with your friends, colleagues and people sharing similar interests?
Mastodon is ad free, decentralized and not driven by commercial or political interests: joinmastodon.org/

The video from the "PKCS#11 with OP TEE" presentation from my @bootlincom colleague Thomas Perrot at @LiveEmbedded is now available at youtube.com/watch?v=gPXF4VYB…
Essentially, that's about implementing cryptographic operations using the secure blocks of a CPU, here i.MX8 from NXP.

Here's a video I recommend from @TheYoctoJester at @LiveEmbedded Event: youtube.com/watch?v=0-6c4rfU…
He shares the main lessons he learned when starting to work on embedded Linux projects. The presentation is fun and the advice makes a lot of sense. Watch it if you are in a hurry!
The video of my "LLVM tools for the Linux kernel" talk at @LiveEmbedded Event is now available: youtube.com/watch?v=W4zdEDpv… (slides: bootlin.com/pub/conferences/…)
Thanks to Nick Desaulniers and @nathanchance for their help and to @bootlincom for allocating time for such research.
Proposing a 7K "Kernel Run" in Paris to @KernelRecipes participants on Thursday morning, Jun. 2 at 7:30 am: connect.garmin.com/modern/co… . We will stop regularly for photos and quick explanations. Meeting on Pont des Arts. Signal group contact: signal.group/#CjQKIPiZbuyetL…
After the Linux kernel 5.17 release, an update on the size of the PREEMPT_RT patchset, in number of bytes. Only 264,758 bytes left for Thomas Gleixner's team, but Linux is a fast moving target.
