YosysHQ Blog is the company blog at blog.yosyshq.com, writing about hardware and programming. Since 2022, 3 different Hacker News readers have linked it 7 times. It is still writing: the last post was on 2026-10-13, and you can follow it by feed.
Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
The linked posts cover open-source FPGA tooling and hardware projects, including a 3D raytracer running on an FPGA. Commenters cite them as an open-source alternative to CERN's on-chip AI work.
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.
What Hacker News says?
Would you consider this open source alternative? I'm working on it https://blog.yosyshq.com/p/3d-raytracing/

HN discussionThey run at 40Mhz. This project [1] runs at 148Mhz using an open source "C/C++ to FPGA" tool to achieve realtime raytracing using integers/fixed/floating points (25Mhz with a 100% open toolchain [2]). Part of the project is currently funded by the Nlnet Foundation (the CflexHDL tool) and integration with the CERN AI tools is planned. Open source is important. DISCLAIMER: I'm author of the CflexHDL tool and the raytr…
