Today Raspberry Pi launched their new $130 AI HAT+ 2 which includes a Hailo 10H and 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. With that, the Hailo 10H is capable of running LLMs entirely standalone, freeing the Pi's CPU and system RAM for other tasks. The chip runs at a maximum of 3W, with 40 TOPS of INT8 NPU inference performance in addition to the equivalent 26 TOPS INT4 machine vision performance on the earlier AI HAT with Hailo 8.

129. A letter to those who fired tech writers because of AI
Hey you, Yes, you, who are thinking about not hiring a technical writer this year or, worse, erased one or more technical writing positions last year because of AI. You, who are buying into the promise of docs entirely authored by LLMs without expert oversight or guidance. You, who unloaded the weight of docs on your devs’ shoulders, as if it was a trivial chore. You are making a big mistake. But you can still undo the damage.

140. Cue Does It All, but Can It Literate?
CUE is the Swiss Army knife of file generation. It is the tool you grab when you need to generate complex JSON, validate YAML, or generally stop configuration files from ruining your life. It slices, it dices, it ensures your integers are actually integers. But guess what else it can be? It turns out, it is also a surprisingly effective Literate Programming tool. This is important because, let’s be honest, the current king of this hill is org-mode. And while org-mode is powerful, it is also a bit of a golden cage. It works perfectly as long as you never leave the Emacs ecosystem. But the moment you try to export a workflow to a colleague who uses VS Code, you realize you have accidentally signed up for vendor lock-in. You want your documentation - your “literate code” - to be portable, not a magic spell that only works inside one specific editor.

142. Python: Tprof, a Targeting Profiler
Profilers measure the performance of a whole program to identify where most of the time is spent. But once you’ve found a target function, re-profiling the whole program to see if your changes helped can be slow and cumbersome. The profiler introduces overhead to execution and you have to pick out the stats for the one function you care about from the report. I have often gone through this loop while optimizing client or open source projects, such as when I optimized Django’s system checks framework (previous post).
