    I hope Risc-V will make it. Even though idk? But it literally has no weird proprietary shit like ARM and it actually makes sense.

    Going away from x86_64 is important, even for the environment

      My hopes for RISC V are higher than I like to admit.

      I really hope it goes mainstream and gives us ARM benefits with the open nature awesomeness

      Much like the open source movement before it, the open hardware movement will have a slow crawl to a bare victory.

      It’ll first be used a lot by labs, embedded applications and general infrastructure, far away from the consumer space with only a little bit of overlap.

      Then, hopefully, some new Apple-like company manages to slam dunk their presentation and introduction to market, effectively disrupting the market - in a good way.

      Follow me for more hopeful divining. We’ll have the shaking of sticks, a dead goat boy and symbols written in the floor.

      Bring candles.
