  Take a journey into the world of CPU Architecture with the first presentations from Intel's new YouTube series that explains the core concepts in plain language. The expert narrating  "Architecture All Access: Modern CPU Architecture" is Boyd Phelps, someone who over the last 23 years has worked on some of the most well known chip designs in Intel's history; Pentium 4, Nehalem, Broadwell to the hyper-modern Tiger Lake processors. It has two parts, the first  of which is 18 minutes long and talks about what a CPU is, its history, the concept of the computing abstraction layers and the Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). full article on i-programmer.info

Ever wanted to program electronics for either fun or profit but thought that the entry barrier was too high? Are you a teacher, a parent, who wanted to teach kids tangible coding but can't figure out where to start from? If the answer is yes, you'll find MakeCode and CODAL a much more accessible way to break into the world of electronics. MakeCode by Microsoft, is a web app in which you can write code for micro controllers in a high level language, either block-based Blocky or TypeScript, while CODAL (Component-Oriented Device Abstraction Layer) by Lancaster University is an optimized C++ runtime which supports higher-level languages and contains  drivers for devices. Initially they were just for the BBC micro:bit but other targets include Arduino Uno or BrainPad. full article on i-programmer.info

Could Preevio's innovative keyboard be the perfect answer to the privacy concerns arising from the monitoring and tracking of all our daily activities that take place online? It's common fact that keeping a secret online is not something that the average computer user can master, despite the wealth of information on how to go about it as well as the attempts taken in simplifying the procedures.
