Apple M1 foreshadows Rise of RISC-V
I dearly hope that we will soon have a RISC-V based, massively parallel and with many specialized coprocessors. The magic of Amiga will soon be back, updated for the 21th century.

Subtle hostility
nilay patel @reckless 26 nov I haven’t plugged the M1 MacBook Pro review unit in for three days. Have been using on and off this evening. Battery: 60 percent M.G. Siegler@mgsiegler 26 nov Speed aside, this is a truly incredible difference that is causing me to change behavior… That’s awesome. A little less awesome…

This is awesome. I underestimated the amount of knowledge required to elaborate the concept of “temperament” until I listened to those three versions, thinking how I could explain to my daughters who are learning to enjoy music.
“Fiction has been maligned for centuries as being “false,” “untrue,” yet good fiction provides more truth about the world, about life, and even about the reader, than can be found in non-fiction.”

Amiga, Hardware
Is Apple M1 the new Amiga?
I loved Apple. Not the Apple of DRMs and its golden prison where you can’t really control your hardware; I loved the Apple that loved Software Libero. Then it mutated into a company that crushes people freedoms while smiling. I like to have control of my hardware. I don’t want to use hardware that treats me…

Un chip RISC-V promette di demolire Apple M1. Ecco chi c’è dietro e di cosa si tratta
La californiana Micro Magic afferma di aver messo a punto un core basato su ISA RISC-V che non teme confronti, nemmeno l’interessantissimo Apple M1 su base ARM, grazie a frequenze intorno ai 5 GHz e consumi estremamente ridotti. Un chip RISC-V promette di demolire Apple M1. Ecco chi c’è dietro e di cosa si tratta…

Source: QBE vs LLVM
Both QBE and LLVM are compiler backends using an SSA representation. This document will explain why LLVM does not make QBE a redundant project. Obviously, everything following is biased, because written by me.
