Life and career

He was born at Pressano, in Tyrol, in 1736. He studied under Lorenzoni, an Italian artist and after travelling in Italy, Germany, Hungary, and France, he settled at Burghausen. Felix Joseph von Lipowsky estimated that della Croce painted 5000 portraits and 200 historical pictures. There are many altar-pieces painted by him in the churches of Bavaria. He died in 1819. His son, Clemens de La Croce, who was also a painter, was born at Burghausen in 1783 and died in 1823.

gollark: See, there are exactly 16 registers, one of which, r0, always contains 0, and one of which, rf, is the program counter, and many of the instructions take a 4-bit value representing which register to pull from.

gollark: <@!330678593904443393> You would pass it 6 register indices.

gollark: 32 registers would probably allow room for more fun stuff, like the program metacounter register.

gollark: Unless I decide to upgrade to 32 registers, in which case it would only allow 5 max.

gollark: Very late, but PotatoASM can probably handle syscalls of up to 6 parameters, which is surely enough for ANY possible usecase, through passing a bunch of register indices as operands to the `SYSC` instruction.
