Comment Comment by MayeulC I thought this was going to be about silicon lottery.Key points:* For a new software approach to be recognized as valuable, it needs appropriate hardware to exist at the right time* As Moore's law fades away, we can no longer rely on steady performance improvements for generalist CPUs, so specialized HW will make a comebackAn interesting note:> Hardware is only economically vi-able if the lifetime of the use case lasts more than 3 yearsI admit I stopped reading at section 5. parent MayeulC 6 years ago
Key points:
* For a new software approach to be recognized as valuable, it needs appropriate hardware to exist at the right time
* As Moore's law fades away, we can no longer rely on steady performance improvements for generalist CPUs, so specialized HW will make a comeback
An interesting note:
> Hardware is only economically vi-able if the lifetime of the use case lasts more than 3 years
I admit I stopped reading at section 5.
