Literature
The Irish novelist Antonia Logue was born in Park.
gollark: Idea for an instruction set: x86-64 MOV, but no other instructions.
gollark: I guess so. ARM SoCs for phones already have the high/low-powered cores dichotomy.
gollark: I think what would be pretty good is having CPUs with a few high-single-thread-perf cores, like we have now, some lower-powered cores, and a lot of parallel processing ones (like GPUs).
gollark: ARM is improving *really* fast.
gollark: I mean, RISC-V is kind of good but I think more complex instructions might actually be a good idea, to keep the CPU execution bits happy and fed with stuff to do.
