The assassination attempts on China’s tech industry in general backfired a lot already
Assassination attempts on Russia’s economy have been similarly
. The imperial core is speedrunning its decline.The problem with assassin the Russian economy, is to do it faster then it commit suicide.
If by commit suicide you mean grow faster than any G7 economy making Russia 4th largest economy then sure.
Which also had the effect on pushing RISC-V development forward, which is great.
Are there even any advantages to it over ARM?
At a technical level it’s still young and most likely not as powerful as other similar platforms, but on a legal level the instruction set is an open standard and royaltee-free, so it can’t be embargoed through licensing like ARM or other instruction sets.
I’m happy to see more openness in hardware.
Wait so ARM isn’t open? Ok now it makes sense
No it’s not, anyone can get a license to create an ARM chipset but you do need to pay for a license.
I still don’t understand. Is it like RHEL (they give you all the source code) or more like Windows?
It’s neither. It’s a specification that you can use to build your own chip.
So it’s more like MPEG where you can read the doc and create your own implementation.
Closed source but if you pay enough you can get the source
The difference between east and west is that Asia can adapt to whatever shit comes. They don’t care, they just adapt in any way and keep going. While west would never accept any harm to their burgeons life.
