    And hung onto the Intel '86 architecture a tad too tightly, for far
    too long.

    Yes, it's an ancient dog. It's immensely complex to push the X86
    architecture for speed, hence the power consumption and all the bugs.

    AMD has been doing it pretty well, for awhile. The X86_64 architecture
    was theirs, for instance--Intel was still pushing Itanium, alias Itanic.

    Altera was founded with Intel money, and the Intel Eprom process.
    Remember the EP300?

    And hung onto the Intel '86 architecture a tad too tightly, for far
    too long.

    In the last 20 years, Intel processors had nothing to do with the x86 architecture, except that they could accept x86 code after reset.
    Inside, they are a bunch of RISCs, and there is no EAX register but
    some 100s of renaming registers that all could take the role of EAX,
    in case of speculative execution even some of them at the same time.

    Joe Gwinn

    Yes, it's an ancient dog. It's immensely complex to push the X86
    architecture for speed, hence the power consumption and all the bugs.

    There haven't been a lot of bugs in the last 40 years. If someone gave
    up b/c of bugs, it was NS with the 32032 or Motorola with the 68K.
    That's what you get with addressing modes like multiple-memory-indirect
    where instructions may never terminate because of unlimited page faults
    for a single instruction.

    All the bugs? Surely you'll mention the fdiv? Has floating point
    division anything to do with x86 architecture? When I think of bugs,
    I immediately remember the AM9511 floating point coprocessor.
    It was next to impossible to get a data sheet and the AM9511 version
    for it, and every month a different combination with different bugs.


    AMD has been doing it pretty well, for awhile.  The X86_64 architecture
    was theirs, for instance--Intel was still pushing Itanium, alias Itanic.

    ... which really was HP's brainchild.
    I wonder how the iapx432 would perform with current cache technology.

    Cheers

    My fave was the NSC800...I usd it in the first (?) all cmos hand held terminal...

    The 1802 predated it as the first CMOS *CPU* (no idea as to first
    "CMOS hand held terminal")

    and the Z80 could do io mapped DRAM, albeit slowly but it worked as
    a printer buffer!

    Z80 clocks were slow enough that you could squeeze the refresh
    cycle into each M1 and a few "muxilpeckers" gave you a DRAM
    controller -- at normal bus speed. A bit clumsier on other
    processors.

    I put a bank of "by 1" DRAM into a device and allowed each "bit lane"
    to be stuffed with either 16Kx1 or 64Kx1 devices. So, you had 16Kx8
    of DRAM with some combination of 0-8 additional bit-widths of DRAM
    above that (obviously accessed via a subroutine that would
    piece together *bytes* from sequential *bits* in each bit lane)

    [I used it as a data store so access time wasn't important]

    The 64K I/O space was a huge win as it let you move "stuff"
    out of the main *memory* address decoder. I would cringe when
    working on (e.g.) motogorilla hardware and had to more fully
    decode addresses in order not to "waste" the single address
    space on something as silly as an output latch.

    [It was common for Z80/68xx comparisons to be made and rules
    of thumb equating their equivalent performance (in some
    application niche. God, I hate the load/store architecture!]

    The 68K's bus timing was a significant annoyance as it made
    NUMA multiprocessor systems costly to design. I managed to
    design a custom processor that had exactly (on paper) the
    same bus timing as the 68010 -- so I could just treat it
    as yet another 68K as far as the arbiter was concerned!

    [Try sharing a bus between two heterogeneous processors
    and you will appreciate the beauty, there!]

    The original 32K had an interesting approach with EXTERNAL
    coprocessors (FPU, MMU) which others assumed had to be
    internal.

    [And the 99K was even wonkier with their "workspaces"!]

    Now, hardware is boring vanilla. But, thankfully, the types
    of capabilities that are now affordable in OTS devices means
    one can move all of that creativity into software, instead!
    Eventually, folks will learn to accept them as the new norm...
    Heck, it only took a few decades for multitasking to become
    the norm... :<

    Yes, the 1802 was great, the address bus was muxed high byte low bytes so interfacing to DRAM was extremely easy.

    Yes, the 1802 was great, the address bus was muxed high byte low bytes so interfacing to DRAM was extremely easy.

    The fact that there were a bajillion clocks per bus cycle was
    delightful! Contrast that with things like the 6502/68xx; you
    had to resort to one-shots to get "edges" where you wanted them!
    The lack of a "refresh counter" meant more devices on the PCB.

    "Great?" Meh... :>

    It was (like many other devices in that era) "different". E.g.,
    I/O was more like a "fly by" operation supported by some DMACs
    instead of an explicit LOAD/STORE to "I/O space".

    I really liked having a shitload of registers available; the idea of
    having to keep going back to memory to reacquire a datum that I had
    IN MY HANDS a few opcode fetches earlier always annoyed me (even
    disguising this as a "workspace" did little to remove the foul taste).

    I also miss support for BCD operations (nice when you are dealing
    with physical display decoders, etc.). But, that was true of many CPUs.

    Mnemonics were kind of wonky -- largely a consequence of all the
    oddities in the programming model (SEX, PHI, GLO, NLBR, etc.)

    Today's "programmers" would probably be confused by the variety available,
    back then. I think they assume more "generic" programming models.
    Expecting them to understand the architecture of the processor to make
    sense of the instruction set ("the reason why things are done THIS way...") seems like a stretch.

    Imagine dealing with an 8x300 ("Where's the CALL instruction???")!

    Yes, the 1802 was great, the address bus was muxed high byte low bytes so

    I never used the 1802 but it did look like a nice architecture to me at the time.
    Is that the one which stored the return address in the first two addresses of a subroutine or am I thinking of something else?

    The PDP-8 stored the return address (12 bit) in the first location of
    a subroutine.

    Sad that we have so few "choices", now. And, such brain damaged I/Os!

    My fave was the NSC800...I usd it in the first (?) all cmos hand held
    terminal...

    The 1802 predated it as the first CMOS *CPU* (no idea as to first
    "CMOS hand held terminal")

    and the Z80 could do io mapped DRAM, albeit slowly but it worked as
    a printer buffer!

    Z80 clocks were slow enough that you could squeeze the refresh
    cycle into each M1 and a few "muxilpeckers" gave you a DRAM
    controller -- at normal bus speed. A bit clumsier on other
    processors.

    I put a bank of "by 1" DRAM into a device and allowed each "bit lane"
    to be stuffed with either 16Kx1 or 64Kx1 devices. So, you had 16Kx8
    of DRAM with some combination of 0-8 additional bit-widths of DRAM
    above that (obviously accessed via a subroutine that would
    piece together *bytes* from sequential *bits* in each bit lane)

    [I used it as a data store so access time wasn't important]

    The 64K I/O space was a huge win as it let you move "stuff"
    out of the main *memory* address decoder. I would cringe when
    working on (e.g.) motogorilla hardware and had to more fully
    decode addresses in order not to "waste" the single address
    space on something as silly as an output latch.

    [It was common for Z80/68xx comparisons to be made and rules
    of thumb equating their equivalent performance (in some
    application niche. God, I hate the load/store architecture!]

    The 1802 made the programmer "manually" alter the PC and, later, restore
    it.

    You essentially told the processor to use a different register
    as the PC -- after having placed the address (registers are 16b)
    in that register. You similarly would re-alter it to get back to
    the point (following) where you made the change.

    [This is a cruder version of the more modern BAL -- where the
    programmer specifies the link register]

    There are a couple of different ways of doing this but none is really
    as clean (or efficient) as a CALL/JSR/BAL. You had to write code
    to BUILD the CALL/JSR *mechanism* and then use that "subroutine"
    as a linkage to invoke your desired "subroutine" while stacking the
    return address so YOU could perform the reverse linkage when
    the subroutine was complete.

    I.e., think about what a "normal" processor does when it encounters
    a CALL:
    copy the address following the instruction onto a stack...
    ... that is indexed by a "stack pointer" register...
    ... updating that register in preparation for the next use...
    place the destination address into the program counter

    <your code here>

    retrieve the stacked address "before" the referenced SP location...
    ...update the "stack pointer" register...
    place the retrieved address into the program counter
    Code for each of the above steps had to be WRITTEN by the programmer
    to emulate a CALL (and RETURN) facility.

    This was incredibly inefficient -- especially for a slow processor.

    Newer processor designs avoid storing the return address on a
    memory-based stack as this often causes needless memory accesses.
    I.e., if your subroutine isn't going to "call" anything, then
    why do you need to store more than the most recent return
    address... IN A REGISTER!

    [If you are going to need to call another subroutine, then you
    take steps to preserve the state of any registers that could
    be clobbered in that action -- like the "link" register!]

    Looks like they wrecked Altera.

    Altera was founded with Intel money, and the Intel Eprom process.
    Remember the EP300?

    And hung onto the Intel '86 architecture a tad too tightly, for far
    too long.

    In the last 20 years, Intel processors had nothing to do with the x86 architecture, except that they could accept x86 code after reset.
    Inside, they are a bunch of RISCs, and there is no EAX register but
    some 100s of renaming registers that all could take the role of EAX,
    in case of speculative execution even some of them at the same time.

    So do they have any instruction set available to the programmer other
    than the x86 one or is all this just an emulation of x86 code.
    Is there a programming model to be seen in some public document
    describing all those many registers. Last time I (vaguely) checked
    all I could see were the x86 registers, just made longer - which
    brings with itself all the limitations the x86 architecture has
    always had, just going over them faster by faster silicon.

    That would be considered "trade secret" as revealing anything of their
    internal implementation would give others a leg up in that market.

    There is no value to their customer base to be able to modify the
    microcode that emulates the x86 architecture. Exposing that
    programming model would then require *supporting* it (toolchain).
    And, force them to preserve it, in addition to the x86 interface.

    I suspect there are some details of the internals that might be
    made available (under NDA) to third-party tool vendors (debuggers,
    ICE, etc.) but that would likely be a very privileged relationship
    (and, Intel would likely have contract language that effectively caused
    any violation of the NDA to result in forfeiture of the offending
    company, just based on size/assets!)

    We had, at one time, a few guys doing 'preventive maintenance'

    Well some interesting fault finding required after that, my boss got stuck...
    I fixed it in 10 minutes the next morning, the 'preventive maintenace' group had not properly tighened a PL259 connector, ground screen was loose

    even maybe go as far as to get Russia on line give it YouCrane
    Its all games US plays.
    This time it will not work, too many real nukes everywhere, US is so small, take a globe and look the ratio of noise the US
    makes versus the rest of the world. compared to surface area..
    Russia China Pakistan India all have their nukes... Probably some more N Korea...
    Invade Iran for some silly lie, like George Double You Booooooos did for weapons of mass destruction that did not really exist in Iraq

    Their GPU business is struggling also, which is too bad as their Arc
    GPUs are pretty good for the price, particularly for video editing and transcoding.

    was a no brainer:

    It has some bug that makes it have high idle power consumption in some
    setups including mine, 35 watts, which is absurd by modern standards.
    None of the fixes seem to work. The price of early adoption but the PC
    is asleep most of the time, anyway.

    It's hilarious what a "low-end" GPU looks like these days, with _14_
    power pins, about a foot and a half long and would break your foot if
    you dropped it on it.

    The Dutch have been resisting nature for quite a while now, since long
    before the United Provinces got united under William the Silent.

    So many empires came and went, some because of climate changes.

    But very few because of climate changes that they initiated, and could
    reverse. And the US isn't any kind of empire, any more than the first
    Dutch Republic was.

    A lot of countries are buying F35s.

    Since its peak in 2024, Intel stock has lost 2/3 of its value.




    About 1/3rd of that in the past 3 days..

    Sorry, I meant 2022.

    Intel is like Kodak and Polaroid and Xerox, fixated on their own aging >>>technology. Intel missed the boat big-time on EUV, so it's hilarious
    that they project big revenues in the foundry business.

    Intel has done $152 billion in stock buybacks, instead of investing in >>>their own business. Now they need government subsidies.
    https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/intel-subsidy-chips-act-stock-buyback >>
    Markets..
    My Intel core I5 laptop is still much much faster than my ARM based Raspberry Pi4 8 GB
    And even my old AMD 64 PCs are...

    I do not realy like ARM architecture.

    But things are changing" what's his name? just sold large parts of his Apple stock:

    https://www.theguardian.com/business/article/2024/aug/03/berkshire-hathaway-warren-buffett-sells-off-apple-increases-cash-holdings


    Writing bloat to sell more hardware is a silly game.
    As silly as 'very old saying Archie? 'Do not fix it if it is not broken'
    We had, at one time, a few guys doing 'preventive maintenance'
    on electronic equipment in the studio.
    Well some interesting fault finding required after that, my boss got stuck... >>I fixed it in 10 minutes the next morning, the 'preventive maintenace' group had not properly tighened a PL259 connector,
    ground screen was loose
    interference impulses everywhere (was fast tacho pulse cable).

    US financial system, dollar value, I think the old plan was to inflate the debt away.
    But grabbing Iranian oil could pay some US debt.
    Follow the money
    So have that notanyyahoo provoke as much war as possible to create a reason to invade Iran, sell more weapons,
    even maybe go as far as to get Russia on line give it YouCrane
    Its all games US plays.
    This time it will not work, too many real nukes everywhere, US is so small, take a globe and look the ratio of noise the US
    makes versus the rest of the world. compared to surface area..
    Russia China Pakistan India all have their nukes... Probably some more N Korea...
    Invade Iran for some silly lie, like George Double You Booooooos did for weapons of mass destruction that did not really exist
    in Iraq
    more war crmes, Japan nuking, Afganistan, Korea, just a weapon manufacturer tha tUS is, and it even kills its own peole with
    thsoe all the time.
    Criminal, genocide, no matter what.
    And crap weapons it makes, there are people here protesting against the horrible noise the F35 makes that we bougt (our CIA
    controlled polly ticksians did)
    What a piece of shit that F35
    Should not be a problem to wipe out that US .
    :-)



    A lot of countries are buying F35s.

    Lots of countries are using MS windows and US security updates that then messed up their airlines....
    Lots of people eat junkfood and die young.

    When that F35 shit passes over here (I am just a few miles from a mil airport) you
    can neither have a phone conversation, or listen to TV or radio.
    In a previous world war Germany detected enemy aircraft by the sound those made.
    A few dollar electret mike setup would ridicule that F35 'stealth' sales crap. A shot of RF reflecting paint by an agent or drone would make that F35 visible all over the place.
    F16 was a reasobale good plane, US making war in - and EU sending its F16s to YouCrane and
    then buying F35 is that NATO US weapon sales agency's game.

    The Japanese tried EUV and gave up. They seem to be doing OK in DUV.

    Incidentally, Cymer in San Diego developed the first practical EUV >lithography, and ASML bought it.

    I dunno who invented the wheel but Cymer used it....
    The Chinese invented the gunpowder and US uses it...
    AFAIK ASML has no export limit enforced by the US for India?
    Seems a good market to me!

    Don't bother. It's totally irrelevant to the climate change we are now
    seeing. It does have something to do to with Milankovich cycles, but

    https://science.nasa.gov/science-research/earth-science/why-milankovitch-orbital-cycles-cant-explain-earths-current-warming/

    The Al Gore sales crap that we caused it all, is just a way to sell more, often useless, stuff
    and break all good things.

    Or so Jan likes to think - or rather that's what the fossil carbon
    extraction industry want's him to think.

    We need to bring all energy sources online to be able to cope (aircos, safe underground places perhaps) with a changing climate
    Else mass migration and mass death of human beings is pre-programmmed.

    It isn't.

    Human species could be decimated by 90 % or more...

    And pigs might fly.

    In the end we will have to reach for other planets, give up on wasting time circling the earth.

    So many empires came and went, some because of climate changes.

    Try reading it anyways, you see for example that when it was cold and food got scarce, witches were burned

    Helped the church perhaps (it uses fiction to manipulate and control people and suck people for money), or sellers of wood.
    Now those temperature changes are blamed on CO2.
    CO2 / witches.. what's next?

    If you DID read it you would see it largely WAS global.


    Generations are now brought up who glue themselves to the ground blocking normal activity that HELPS
    us cope with life, they claim to 'save the earth' In fact they are too dumb to even know how to connect a light bulb.
    All should be sent to a re-eductation camp as the Gore crap and CO2 crap polluted their brains and yours.

    Somebody who believes what he reads in the Daily Telegraph and Russia
    Today hasn't got a brain to pollute. You are as silly as Cursitor Doom.

    The Al Gore sales crap that we caused it all, is just a way to sell more, often useless, stuff
    and break all good things.

    Or so Jan likes to think - or rather that's what the fossil carbon
    extraction industry want's him to think.

    We need to bring all energy sources online to be able to cope (aircos, safe underground places perhaps) with a changing
    climate
    Else mass migration and mass death of human beings is pre-programmmed. >>>>
    It isn't.

    Human species could be decimated by 90 % or more...


    And pigs might fly

    Easy
    book a flight for those, AS LONG AS AIRPLANES ARE STILL ALLOWED BY THOSE CLIMATE IDIOTS
    now they already screw up flights by glueing themselves to the runways..

    Really? Where? You do invent a lot of nonsense.

    Learn to use google, its not that hard for most human beings.

    That instance of the idiot behavior didn't stop many flights, and it's
    very unlikely to work a second time.

    And while you are at it, see that CO2 LAGGED warmer periods in the long ago past:
    http://www.co2science.org/articles/V6/N26/EDIT.php
    has some references.

    None of which you understand. The Milankovich effect works mainly by
    changing snow cover and thus the Earth's albedo. Colder oceans absorb
    more CO2 so the atmospheric CO2 level is a lagging indicator.

    At the moment we are driving global warming by dumping more CO2 in the atmosphere, so it is a leading indicator.

    It's a different situation so the timings are different.

    That already happened 3 times now:
    18 mei 2024 · Six climate activists broke through a security fence at the Munich airport Saturday and glued themselves to access routes leading to runways ...
    24 jul 2024 · Climate activists glue themselves to a taxiway at Cologne-Bonn Airport
    25 jul 2024 · Frankfurt airport suspends flights after climate protesters block ... Six protesters glued themselves to a taxiway, according to activist group ...

    Like I pointed out, learn to use google, most humming beans know how to use it, might work for your species too :-)

    Look up that recent cold period again, everybody was burning wood to cook food. Sure there were far less people back then but making more CO2, but it mysteriously got colder and colder.

    It is all about the Sun's activity.
    And maybe also what our solar system and even our galaxy is moving through in space.
    Denial of reality is what the earth is flat crowd, the sun orbits the earth crowd,
    the CO2 causes glow ball worming crowd, the space is curved crowd, so many other parrot groups,
    caused the destruction of what made them appear here in the first place. Without all the real tech they object to they would not have been born, had a place to live, or food to eat.
    Same for dismantling the nuclear plants when that wimmin leader named murkel? was in power in Germany,
    now they finally discovered the claims made were false.
    https://www.dw.com/en/german-ministers-quizzed-over-nuclear-phase-out-deception/a-68931166
    She was probably a CIA clown, CIA wants no nuke plants in Germany afraid they will make a bomb or two
    to free Europe from NATO?
    To free the world from genocide committing you wish scum?

    Ok, but maybe you - upside down- in sit knee see thing inverted...
