I would be interested in the avx2 transition penalty under real world workloads.

I'd love to see someone at Instacsrt jailed for wage theft.

They should have to pay back "the winnings" by 3x and fire the people involved.

Many professional books these days have issues with registration, bleed, trimming, etc. The quality is quite poor, to the point where I have fatigue determining if a book is "legit" or not.

These cars must have a little pop-out joystick to maneuver it around in a garage or during repair?

There should be a standardized control that pops out of the dash using a fixed icon, so that anyone can enable an override.

Nuts.

How awesome would it have been to be a high performing student, writing programs that a lower performing student would have to execute manually on your simulated computer system. So much good stuff here. Do you want to layout the nand gate or BE the nand gate? Or be the one that decides which problems the nand gate solves?

There are lots of other FPGAs that are still available for RISC-V to target that are precluded from this announcement.

ARM used to sue anyone trying to make an ARM clone and now this. Great news for RISC-V. At least one if not two low end FPGA manufacturers will be shipping a fabric with hard blocks supporting RISC-V.

They emit C and call out to the system C compiler. They bypass the normal Lua extension mechanism for performance.

I think it is a great short and long term move. The new smaller processes aren't getting us to faster clock rates, they are making things cheaper. GF can get to the same point by optimizing their current processes.
