Risc architecture is gonna change everything
Hasn't that been said for like 30 years?
never said when it's gonna change everything
Right, the year of the Linux desktop will be on RISC V!
All even half-way relevant architectures but x86 and z/Architecture are RISC nowadays: ARM, Power, MIPS (The Chinese tried to revitalise it but they seem to be switching to RISC-V), Atmel AVR. Oh speaking of microcontrollers: Z80 (CISC) still lives though arguably it's genetically an x86. And then of course RISC-V which most of all is an open standard, and a clean slate. Also, the first vector insn set that also runs on hardware that isn't a supercomputer.
Arm is RISC
I'm pretty sure they meant the open source RISC-V, not any reduced instruction set ISA in general.
Come on man, let them impress us with their technical knowledge and pedantry.
Pretty sure it's just a reference to Hackers.
So is POWER. Or basically anything not x86 lol.
6502 isn't.
We're being extra pedantic now? Good, I like it.
You mean RISC v? Arm is also risc
RISC is good.
