Back in the day, I enjoyed coding on 8 bit machines, mostly MSX. There is now a Kickstarted project to create a successor machine with some new features: hardware sprites, hardware scrolling, better sound, integrated SD/MMC IO and an ESP8266 for networking. I will be spending HackWeek 0x10 exploring these new features via Z80 assembly.

Employ apache-rex instead.

The ZSTD is a new compression method, potential replacement for existing methods. The support has been added to linux 4.14, but the bootloader support is missing. Goals:

Salt – The most intelligent, powerful and flexible open source software for remote execution, configuration automation, cloud control and event-driven orchestration The goal of the project is to bring its power into QAM, improving efficacy of work and possibly replacing other tools, where Salt could perform the task more naturally.
