BRN Discussion Ongoing

It would be weird if Jonathan Tapson knew how to tap dance. It would be like being a plumber who’s name was Lui Drain.



Was it someone else who suggested you better edit in some “joking” comment half an hour after posting the video on its own, in order to somewhat distract from your thinly veiled attack on me, or was it your own idea?

To save others from googling, here are the charming lyrics of the song to which those five Korean ladies are performing their choreographed dance moves:


Here To Dance (by The Veronicas)

Blood on the floor, look what they started
Hungry for more, they're spitting garbage
I'm getting bored and broken hearted
They won't ever get the best of me

You all need to stop
Not gonna listen to that blah blah blah
Someone's always talking - I don't wanna hear it
All that noise is toxic
I just want to feel this bass inside my body
And this moment in my hands
I don't care who's watching, I'm just here to dance
I'm just here to dance
I'm just here to dance

No time for tears, I'm busy sweating
Come over here, teach you a lesson
If you need a sign, I'll be your heaven
Yeah you'll only get the best of me

You all need to stop
Not gonna listen to that blah blah blah
(I'm not gonna listen)
Someone's always talking - I don't wanna hear it
All that noise is toxic
I just want to feel this bass inside my body and this moment in my hands
I don't care who's watching, I'm just here to dance
I'm just here to dance
I'm just here to dance
I'm just here to dance
I'm just here to dance



Yeah, whatever… 🤦🏼‍♀️

Why don’t you simply get yourself noise-cancelling headphones, then?
And just for the record - I didn’t start the fire.

Instead of replying to my post with the sole intention of insulting me, you could have easily used the time to educate yourself about the difference between tap dancing and line dancing. Let me thus suggest the following video, in which a cat that I find heaps cooler than you will show you how to tap dance (from 1:20 min):

The last couple of weeks have been very quiet. If this continues the quarterly report will see a huge move in sp, in my opinion. Hoping it's a northerly move.
This week is the week we get some news

If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!

Vorago FPGA doesn't include us I'm afraid. ☹️

This is probably why Frontgrade are looking to us to help them make the first space-grade SoC with neuromorphic AI to compete with the Vorago/AMD FPGA.

VORAGO rad-hard MCU enables in-flight reconfiguration of AMD space-grade FPGAs​

AMD and VORAGO Technologies recently announced that AMD Space-Grade KintexUltraScale FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) can be reconfigured by VORAGO’s radiation hardened microcontrollers (rad-hard MCUs), increasing reliability and flexibility while adding radiation hardness to existing radiation-tolerant AMD FPGA-based systems.
AMD-Kintex-FPGA.jpg

Joining market-leading FPGAs from AMD with best-in-class, radiation-hardened MCUs from VORAGO greatly increases flexibility in FPGA reconfiguration. Pairing a VORAGO rad-hard MCU with AMD’s FPGA allows updates to be managed in-flight via the MCU. This solution uses AMD’s serial reconfiguration interface, simplifying reprogramming versus traditional methods. This new solution that will help customers achieve high reliability for critical applications in space missions.
In this solution, the MCU firmware enables the FPGA to be reconfigured after the system is deployed, allowing new features and bug fixes to be added later, and enables a multitude of mission modes and profiles. An application note and proof of concept are available based on an AMD XQRKU060 FPGAinterfacing to a VORAGO VA41620 MCU.
AMD Kintex™ UltraScale™ FPGAs focus on high performance in space, with abundant DSP and block RAM resources, and high bandwidth transceivers combined with space-grade packaging. Their reprogrammability, unconstrained by radiation effects or write cycle endurance limits, enable a new generation of reconfigurable satellite payloads to support remote sensing and communications missions.
VORAGO’s radiation hardened Arm® Cortex-M4 microcontrollers enable mission-critical technology to support the most demanding space applications, from heavy computing needs such as edge, to embedded controllers and I/O. With up to 300 krad(Si) TID and SEL >110 MeV*cm2/mg, VORAGO rad-hard MCUs provide industry-leading radiation hardness to withstand the harsh conditions encountered in space.
With best-in-class radiation performance, VORAGO MCUs provide system level radiation hardness to applications with radiation-tolerant FPGA systems. By adding the VORAGO MCU to a system design, customers can also take advantage of the rich peripheral set to perform tasks, including system level single event monitoring and motor control, among others.

Trading softly softly, pressure on the stock price till the Q/R report my guess. I am thinking we shall see an increase of revenue when it arrives but just how much I do ponder.

Hi Bravo,

FPGAs are versatile adaptable "utility" logic devices including lots of logic gates and other stuff which can be connected to implement different logic algorithms in silicon on the same silicon chip. It's the Swiss Army knife of silicon.

"In this solution, the MCU firmware enables the FPGA to be reconfigured after the system is deployed, allowing new features and bug fixes to be added later, and enables a multitude of mission modes and profiles. "

There is no mention of AI/NN. It does include a DSP (digital signal processor) which can process sensor signals, but using much more power than SNNs.

They mention using it with 3G & 4G:

I don't see this as a direct competitor for the Vorago radhard Akida.

Ah, I see.

I was under the impression that a Senior Consultant was more of an upper mid-level role, which would mean that this now being his full-time job, it would be a few steps down the career ladder for him, after two decades of being a university professor both in South Africa and then in Australia (as well as Director of the MARCS institute at WSU for two years), followed by company positions as CSO (GrAI Matter Labs) and CTO (IONA Tech).

Somehow I would have expected a gentleman of his calibre to fill a position with a fancier title - existing or newly created, such as CNO (Chief Neuromorphic Officer). 😂

After a quick Google search, it appears the corporate hierarchy is indeed not standardised. Most of the examples of Senior Consultants I found referred to positions in consulting companies, but even they differ:

This is in no way comparable. He is senior, consultants and SCs are just the catch all title they give juniors in the big 4.

So are people still buying? 🤔..

I've done my bit and added 5000 more "tickets" over the last 2 weeks.

Everybody here (all 40 or so left 🙄..) must know that although the share price is currently in limbo, just one major IP deal and there will be a dramatic surge, in interest in this Company.

I'm currently working out, what else I can sell, to buy more..
