gollark: The $5 price for Pi0s is actually a lie.

gollark: It's kind of funny that the entire RPi3 GPU has less throughput than a single core of my CPU.

gollark: Exactly.

gollark: > The VideoCore IV GPU, in the configuration as found in the Raspberry Pi models, has a theoretical maximum performance of 24 GPFLOS and is therefore very powerful in comparison to the host CPU. The GPU (which is located on the same chip as the CPU) has 12 cores, able of running independent instructions each, supports a SIMD vector-width of 16 elements natively and can access the RAM directly via DMA.So obviously ALL should write code for the VC4.

gollark: Good ideaeae!
