re: plans for this thing: 

might need to use a harvard architecture if I want pipelining though

Show thread

plans for this thing: 

- orthogonal instruction set
- 16 bit instruction word: 6 bit opcode, 10 bit address/data
- two 8k×8 eeproms used for main memory (maybe use sram or fram instead)
- low 1k words used for program memory, remainder is available as wram and data by paging instructions
- 16 bit ALU, functions tbd

question about nintendo announcement 

Is the switch lite like a PSP Go sort of situation where it's digital-only, or does it still have a cartridge slot?

bonus points if your code isn't otherwise compatible with those processors

- insist on including workarounds for hardware bugs that exist in very specific, obsolete, and possibly nonexistent processors

fun things to do with a C program:

- make your program reliant on whether the compiler interprets `a+++b;` as `(a++) + (b);` or `(a) + (++b);`
- int uint8
- if while
- wherever possible, sprinkle in bits of assembly, even if it doesn't do anything useful

what happened to dual number in languages

we should bring that back

maybe trial too, because why the hell not
