- Notes
gollark: That seems like a lot of money for a DIY CPU thingy.
gollark: I especially like how I don't actually know how the core vectorized compare and swap algorithm works any more.
gollark: Then I'm sure you recognize how great it is, especially my `BROADCAST_EPI8` macron.
gollark: Besides, it's very portable because all computers are x86.
gollark: It compiled to reasonable assembly in `-O3` mode.
