THE OKELO is a personal blog at theokelo.co.ke about hardware and programming. Since 2022, 3 different Hacker News readers have linked it 3 times. The last post was in 2022, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
The linked posts are a getting-started guide for the EBAZ4205, a low-cost board with a Zynq-7010 SoC that combines an FPGA and a dual-core ARM CPU. Commenters point to it as a resource for that board.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

HN discussionAnother low cost fpga board I've found is the EBAZ4205, which has a Zynq7010 SoC (fpga and dual core arm CPU). I got one a few years ago for 40 AUD. They were originally Bitcoin miner control boards. https://theokelo.co.ke/getting-starting-with-ebaz4205-zynq-7...
