Inno what?
It is 2024, not 2006, what innovations are you talking about?
In the peak of hype they have years or decades of exp.
Because what else?
If so, then i think that this is crazy because software is harder to change than hardware
Yea, admins.
Try dotnet then
Standardized exams are the most fair and transparent.
Materials and tutors are available easily for free or cheaply on the internet nowadays.
You definitely can be good SE without understanding semiconductors
They are really useful for like 90% of the work
The rest can be made with raw sql
Combine strengths of those two powerful tools, dont be religious
Painful to maintain, test, debug, etc.
What a take.
Is doctor telling bullshit about computers less doctor-ish?
There are long ass supply chains
Also arm isa is just isa
You seem to focus on it too much when it isnt THAT relevant.
Isa doesnt imply perf/energy characteristics
It will challenge your concerns
Basically industry standard
Irrelevant. We need good lib in C
Arent "hackers" interested in this?
Loot boxes are maybe 1% of the game and theres shitton of challenges, creativity and effort needed for the other 99%
Those are companies hiring 100Ks of ppl, of course some of them are frustrated but it is not as relevant as news try to make it.
I bet you could read 10s of posts like that monthly about MSFT 15 years ago
What stock market taught me is that snarky comments under articles or reddit arent good future perf. predictor
Didnt you just agree with me that it is dependent on the impl/end product?
Because what would be the reasons in isa world to make it not desirable
>The syntax of the language has constrained the implementation so that Java will practically always be slower.
The most interesting question is: by how much?
1% 3%? 30?
What if x86 CPUs werent designed for low power? e.g due to focus on competitivness in perf focused markets
Saying that one isa is faster or more energy efficient is like saying that c++ syntax is faster than java syntax.
While there are lang features that enable stuff, then almost everything is up to the implementation - compiler, libraries, runtime and the programs code.
One letters arent faster than the other. ISA doesnt imply perf. characteristics of the end product.

Even if you start talking about decoders, then:
>Another oft-repeated truism is that x86 has a significant ‘decode tax’ handicap. ARM uses fixed length instructions, while x86’s instructions vary in length. Because you have to determine the length of one instruction before knowing where the next begins, decoding x86 instructions in parallel is more difficult. This is a disadvantage for x86, yet it doesn’t really matter for high performance CPUs because in Jim Keller’s words:
They work very fine, just not replace as many workers as expected
Who?
Random people on the facebook or reddit?
If so, then why their opinion should be taken into consideration?
