Anyone else remember that scene from hackers where they say RISC is the future

My friends and I would laugh at it, because it was so clear at that point x86 was victorious

27 years later, that line is now true! And now all I have is egg on my face

I was so naive, I mean, she's acid burn, who am I?

I'm giving away my atmel chips and obviously switching over to the ARM32 M0+

Not hip? These chips are far more powerful, use less electricity + idle mode. AND are now cheaper

Juneteenth should remind us that human trafficking was legal. Slavery was legal. Jim Crow was legal. The US Govt paying reparations to white enslavers who lost their “property” but not to the formerly enslaved who lost their lives, was legal. Indeed, prison slavery is still legal today.

Do not let legality & power be your measure of morality & justice.
