I’m kind of sick of being into tech. Everything is riddled with ads and speculative investment. You have to manage your expectations so much because everything has a good likelihood of turning into garbage at a moments notice. It’s just not fun anymore. I know I’m probably a bit nostalgia blinded, but I miss the mid-late 2000s and early 2010s so much. Games were new and interesting, tech was moving at a lightning fast pace, things were fun.

I know it’s more complicated than that, and there are reasons things are how they are, but fuck man. Anyway, off my chest.

      Yeah, I reckon it will be much more of an impact in cheaper devices, say light bulbs and semi smart watches, than in bigger systems like laptops or servers. Given the lack of licensing fees for the CPU it makes a system meaningfully cheaper, so there is a strong incentive for various groups to work on making RISCV successful. Hopefully someone out there will do the same with WiFi chips and maybe also camera sensors.
